    Our experience was just outstanding Service was above and beyond our beautiful right waitress, she even remembered that one of our guest was gluten-free as per requested on our information book in requirements The meal was absolutely delicious , the chef went out of his way to make sure that the meal gluten-free was done correctly Decor, even renovating where we had dinner inside our guest from Central Coast just loved loved loved it  That was our first evening experience and we will be definitely back again Thank you, Patterson Tavern
