Great food, great selection. the service here is almost non-existent. really horrendous service. Although one guy was having his first day, he explained. We felt sorry for him. Two waiters for 20+ tables, they were running around. The lady bartender was nice, but she disappeared and we noticed others waiting for drinks. One guy, behind us, left $5 for their... more

My husband and I have eaten at the Mendocino Hotel Victorian Dining Room several times in the past few years. We were there last night, 3/1. We got there at 7:00pm and ordered Caesar Salads, which, alas, is no longer made at table side, soup for my husband, and the entrees. I was keeping an eye on the clock because,... more

My wife and I had a late lunch in the bistro section. The garden like setting is very attractive, and the food was fair, but not exceptional value for the money. The only negative, which spoiled the occasion, was the service. We both ordered soup and a hot entree. The waiter brought them together, so that we had to fast... more

I love the Victorian Dining Room at the Mendocino Hotel. They have the best crab cakes I have ever tasted. The view of the ocean is wonderful, and the staff is the greatest. They always treat me like family. They catered my wedding reception and the food was amazing. I highly recomend this restaurant to anyone who wants a great... more

We enjoy fine dining experiences wherever we travel. Tonight's dinner at the Victorian Dining Room at Mendocino Hotel exceeded our expectations in every way: setting, wonderful attentive and INTELLIGENT service by our server, Ashley, creative yet subtle and nuanced flavors in all courses. The duck rillettes salad was a wonderful combination of textures and rich flavors; my husband had the... more

I was very impressed with the Victorian Dining Room especially since I have never heard of it prior to this last trip to Mendocino. The evening scenery from the restaurant was beautiful and even though I did not expect the food to be that spectacular, it was. Theresa was our server and I was impressed by her friendliness, knowledge of... more

We stopped in Mendocino to visit the quaint coastal city and check out the arts and other shops. We stopped at the Mendocino Hotel’s Garden Room restaurant for lunch. The setting of the hotel restaurant is quite beatiful and looks like an outdoor café with wrought iron chairs, padded seats and Ficus trees growing up through the floor. The tables... more

Spent an evening in Mendocino on the urging of a friend. Decided to try out the Victorian Dining Room restaurant and was pleasantly surprised at the warm atmosphere. My spouse and I enjoyed the Delmonico. Cooked exactly as we requested. Our server Theresa did an excellent job taking care of us. We really enjoyed our night out. We would recommend... more

I work in Mendocino 5 days a week and eat lunch at the Victorian Dining Room Restaurant & Garden Cafe at least once or twice a week. I usually try to get Sara as our waitperson because she takes the extra steps to make lunch a fun experience and she is so attentive. The service is wonderful and I'm always... more

I have had lunches and dinners at the Mendocino Hotel and Garden Restaurant for the past 20 years, and have had the best service ever at lunch time by the servers, but one in particular that makes it all worthwhile to go there. If she were not there, I would only go once in awhile, she is excellent with people,... more
