We wandered into the Moosse Cafe for lunch and choose the patio overlooking the garden with the Pacific Ocean in the distance. Everything on the menu sounded so yummy, we choose to share a few dishes and ordered the Salmon 2-ways, the Moosse Caesar Salad and Reatha's Mac N Cheese. We were not disappointed. The Salmon 2 ways features their... more

We've had many memorable meals at Moosse over the years, however on this trip to Mendocino we were disappointed. I will say the quality of the ingredients was very good and I appreciate the freshness of local ingredients, but the flavors didn't blend well and seemed over reaching. The lentil soup was too spicy and was garnished with croutons, which... more

The entrees were outstanding along with the wine selection and salad. The restaurant is situated in what appears to be a converted house, which provides a nice atmosphere. The one negative were the desserts. We ordered a sorbet, which tasted like it had been left in the freezer for about two months too long. more

The restaurant was packed at 7 p.m. on the Saturday we visited, so we were glad we had made a reservation. We decided to share an entree and they were very nice about it. We appreciated it because sometimes it seems the staff writes you off when you don't place a huge order.The lettuce in the salad seemed as if... more

We chose to go back to The Moose Cafe after remembering that we loved it 15 years ago. We still love it! We were there on a Monday night and there is no corkage fee charged on that night so we stopped and bought a bottle of wine at a local market. The service was superb and our server was... more

I have been to Mendocino many times and have eaten here several times. If you ask someone where to eat in town, they will almost invariably mention the Moosse Cafe. And, indeed, every time we have eaten here it has been packed. The restaurant is small, and the tables are close together, cafe style. This means that the volume level... more

Dinner was very good. Had Cioppino...burger...both were very good. Bread was excellent. Desserts were good as well..ice cream and berry cobbler. Service was good as well. I was told the restaurant is for sale so there may be changes in the future. more

We went there for lunch on our first full day in Mendocino. Place is popular so we were lucky there was one table available. Atmosphere is kind of funky. Service was good though the wait person didn't seem real friendly - like, she did not welcome us or greet us, just took our order. The menu is eclectic with some... more

We went to this restaurant on the recommendation of a local. We were told no reservation was needed so we went without one. We were never treated so bad at a pricey place in our life and we have eaten at plenty. The steak was like rubber which is kind, the halibut dry and over cooked. This is a great... more
