Service was not attentive and snooty. Restuarant was cold and very dark. Food was overcooked. Extensive wine list left the only good impression. Server did not make suggestions for pairing wine with our food choices. Have had far superior experiences at The Sea Grill and Avalon down the street. more

My fiance and I dined at Restaurant 301 during a 2-night stay at the Carter Inn. This review is for the restaurant only....the hotel and staff were amazing! I booked the reservation upon checking in at the hotel and they were able to squeeze us in, no problem. We arrived at dinner and were seated promptly. We were given menus... more

The Restaurant 301 is absolutely fabulous. I have eaten there at least 10 times during my travels in Northern California. It is by far the best restaurant I have found. The menu changes to fit the ingredients they have that are fresh and local. They have the best selection of cheese that I have ever seen at a restaurant. Their... more

I have eaten twice at the Restaurant 301 and would not go again. The first time it was 3 hours and 45 minutes from our arrival until we finally settled the bill. In between we had 3 courses of very mediocre food in miniature portions with very long waits between courses. The waitress was snippy and surly regarding the delays.... more

My wife and I had dinner at Restaurant 301 on June 15, 2009. We started with a salad which was very plain and bland. We then ordered the salmon, it was also very plain and over-salted. The salmon was served with a very small portion of "just okay" vegetables in this stacked food presentation. The meal concluded with a dessert... more

We dined here last August. It took more than 40 minutes for our wine to arrive, and more than an hour before our appetizers were served. Aside from the poor service, the entrees were ok. The food was overpricied and the restaurant was pretentious. On the other hand, eating at Hurricane Kate's in Eureka, Trattoria in Sunnyvale, and Folie Deuce... more

We stopped at the Carter House Inn for a night and decided to have dinner at their restaurant. What a wonderful, wonderful surprise! The carrot-ginger soup and rib eye steak were the best I had ever eaten and my husband raved about his king salmon. He devoured his apple strudel which was fine my me because I was not about... more

I always go to 301 for special occasions and find it to be an exqiusite experience. The chef, Cory Smith, has an exceptional palate and the combination of ingredients could not be better paired. What really impressed me about his cooking was the presentation of the food. It always comes out looking like an amazing art peice, in which, I... more

Great Food, Excellent Service and Amazing Wine. The new bar is beautiful! I suggest a glass of the house Carter or a bubbly glass of Prosecco. more
