    We love this place! About once a year, we come up and stay at the hotel and are sure to enjoy dinner here. Last night there was live music, it was wonderful.

    We had 8ppl at 530pm, and it was a lovely experience. The food was delicious. Our service was top-notch. The band didn't start playing until 7 p.m., so we had a nice quiet dinner and conversation. Once the music started up, it became a little hard to have a conversation, but the visual aspect of the people dancing and the music was very entertaining and enjoyable.

    Had reservation for over a year and was sat in the very back away from anything. Food was very dry and had very little flavor.

    We celebrated an early Valentine’s Day date at the Gold Rush Steak House at Madonna Inn. I was so excited be able to be there. We also celebrated our 1st date anniversary, so it was a double celebration. I couldn’t have asked for a better place to be. The service was exceptional, the atmosphere was amazing. I can’t wait to go back.
