Reviews
"This review is for The Tavern restaurant not the hotel. The food was excellent, all the dishes. The prices are not cheap but the portions are nice size, the quality of the food and flavor are excellent! Jeremy our waiter one of the best servers we’ve had at any restaurant! Dishes we had and would order again without hesitation: Uni Tostada Blue Fin Tuna Tartare Sweetbreads Pork Chop with roasted peppers Rockfish Chocolate Soufflé"
"It had been 37 years since I last dined at Mattei's Tavern Restaurant when I visited in late January 2024, and I was pleased to see that the years have been very good to the old haunt, which has been transformed from a historic stagecoach watering hole into an upscale boutique hotel and fine dining establishment. A recent convert to vegetarianism, I have to say, the meat selection looked remarkable, from the surf to the turf, but I was quite impressed with the chef's ability to put a new spin on classic vegetables and did not miss the meat at all. From the crispy cauliflower to the braised cabbage to the focaccia bread, everything was absolutely delicious and expertly prepared, plated, and served. Not only is the venue beautifully decorated, but the staff is warm and welcoming, from the hostess to the waiter to the chef herself, who kindly stopped by my wife’s and my booth to say hello and inquire about our meal. So, without a doubt, the next time I pass through Central California, I will be sure to stop in Mattei’s Tavern again. But, rest assured, I will make advance reservations for the old stage stop is quite popular now, and for good reason, as it’s a truly exceptional dining experience."
"This restaurant is for people who want decent food in a historic setting and don’t care about the price. For $80 you get a filet mignon (it wasn’t medium-rare as requested) with a teaspoon of gravy, a brick of scalloped potatoes (which looked funny but actually tasted amazing!) and a handful of snap peas. Funny enough, the kid’s meal (which was also served dead last) had the largest portion. Service was friendly but slow and unreliable (forgot our appetizer and a side order). It wasn’t bad at all, but the service & food just don’t live up to the expectations set by the price. Except the chocolate soufflé - that was amazing"
"It was one of the best breakfasts I've had at a restaurant in a very long time. The service was fantastic, the coffee and mimosa were on point, and the food tasted delicious. They even have tasty gluten-free bread! 10 out of 10 highly recommend!!"
"Had lunch here with a group of friends after Christmas and it was enjoyable. The ambience is warm and cozy, service is a tad slow however the staff are incredibly kind and accommodating. The kitchen messed up my husband's order (we ordered a BLTA but it didn't contain any bacon). My husband realized after he had eaten half the sandwich thinking that maybe the bacon was on the other half of the sandwich but there was none. We sent it back and the restaurant was kind to replace the entire entree and comp us for the item. Cocktails and cocktails are great. The fries are extremely tasty. I would come back and try out another meal here."
