Delicious , friendly and heated dining experience! Food is top rate! Loved the garlic aioli with crispy veggies and the lamb shank was perfect!! Will come again!
As a local, I’ve been going to Cafe Maddalena’s for decades now. More recently, the business was sold and from what I understand, the employees purchased it. I’ve gone twice since they’ve taken it on and can say with confidence that the quality, ambiance, and overall experience is still 10/10 amazing! I’m so proud of the employees for taking this on and continuing to honor the qualities that makes this restaurant shine. The wait staff is incredibly professional and charming and the chefs continue to put their heart and soul into each meal. Great job guys!!
New owners so checking it out. Most of the food was excellent but the salmon was too under cooked and presentation is lacking. Smaller portions and better presentation would be better. Excellent wait staff. A little slow on food coming from the kitchen. Overall not as strong as before but a disappointment.
A dream as always. Reliable excellent food and steady attentive service by kind staff. New ownership has not changed anything about the menu, the setting the service. Good outdoor dining in summer months, although watch out for no seeum mosquitoes.
Wonderful meal. Made my birthday special.
Delicious food, high end, yet cozy atmosphere. Very attentive wait staff👍
This place is a gem. Some of the best dinner in Northern California. Go enjoy yourself
First time at cafe maddalena. Took my wife and our baby there for mothers day dinner. First thing we noticed is all the tables had paper over the table cloth and the tables were padded. It felt like eating off a bed in the doctors office. Service was ok. Waitresses were attentive. We ordered cream of asperagus soup ( It was pretty good) and the pesto pizza for an appitizer. Pizza was not that good. I had ordered the steak and my wife ordered the pork belly. ( the two most expensive dishes)The glazes on the meats were good. But the pork belly was tougher than it should have been. And the steak was rare instead of medium rare like i ordered. The steak came with a sauce that had no flavor, french fries that were alright, and four pieces of asparagus that also was flavorless. The pork belly came with mashed potatoes that was good but had spinach on top that was over cooked and too salty. All together we paid $139 with tip for a meal i could have easily cooked at home. I expected much more quality and flavour for the price. Also the portions were very small. My wife would not ear her pork belly and that is a dish she usually likes. Not sure why most of the reviews were 5 stars.
The food was mediocre at best. The server was kinda rude, honestly. Disappointing.
One of the best date night restaurants in the North State. Great seasonal menu. Diverse wine list. Nice outdoor patio for summer and early fall. Highly recommended. Reservation recommended.
Cafe Maddalena offers a somewhat elevated dinning experience which there are very few (if any) such places in this part of Northern California. So, kudos for stepping away from the expected.
Food was great as always. We were somewhat rudely asked to walk around town or go get a drink up the street when we arrived 15 minutes early. We noted multiple tables available at the time, and did not note them being occupied when we returned to be seated or later. We understand new ownership has just taken over.
A classic wine and dine experience in the historic town of Dunsmuir. Was amazed by their salad and pasta.
We loved it. Excellent food and service. What a delight. Reasonable prices. Good wine selection. Wonderful
Cute and quaint setting with phenomenal food and service! The filet was out of this world!
