I had a 6:30pm reservation on the Saturday night of the Anjelah Johnson comedy show. I was seated by 6:20pm. The service was fast and accurate. The drinks were strong. The food was beautifully delicious. The scenery was breath taking. Nothing bad to say about Nativos.

The food was delicious, but the service was not great. Our waitress did not check on us often, didn't take our order for some time, and the food was slow coming out. Ordering drinks at the bar took a long time as well. This was probably because there was a show that night. I'm happy we had a reservation, as others were being turned away.

Was looking for a little bit more flavor in the food, salt and garlic at least. Some of our food was cold upon arrival. Expectations were a lot higher than what we actually got. Everything needed salt and cheese.

Been eating at, and recommending, Nativo's for many YEARS. I have always loved, and looked forward to, their Chicken Parm! However, the last two times that I've been there, the chicken has been overcooked, tough, and chewy. My wife's Salmon was ok, but not spectacular. May have to try it one more time before I write them off. Everybody has a bad day or two, so we'll see......

We are locals and decided to try Nativos. The menu looked appetizing so we made reservations and arrived on time. No one was there to greet us initially but a hostess arrived a few minutes later. Instead of greeting us, the hostess looked right at her computer screen and asked if we had reservations. She said she would seat us in about 5 minutes (and left). Over 15 minutes later, she arrived once again and seated us. This would not be worth mentioning, except that there were 7-8 empty tables within yards of where we were standing. Our server was friendly (unlike the hostess) and knowledgeable about the food items. The food was very good! We each ordered a different type of ravioli: lobster and mushroom. The sauces were delicious. There were a couple minor disappointments such as the cheap dinner rolls that were served at our table (think the little square ones you had at Thanksgiving years ago). I would expect a higher grade roll at an upscale Italian restaurant. Another oddity was that we ordered a Caesar salad (to split) and it came in a large bowl with a serving spoon, placed between us. No salad plates were offered, so we had to use our already-used bread and butter plates to eat the salad. In addition, I had to ask for fresh ground pepper for my salad and raviolis. We were seated right next to the bar, and although there was only one couple at the bar, all the waitresses were coming by our table on the way to checking their customers out, which was distracting. Finally, the opera music was too loud and I had to raise my voice for my husband to hear me at our small cafe table. All this being said, we will try going back and ask for a table in the dining room (which we never saw).

I really love the staff at Nativos. From the greater to the server to the Chef Sam and his associates. Chef Sam always comes out to my table and makes sure everything is alright with me.He even goes out of his way and makes me a special dessert. I highly recommend them for your dining experience.

I had the chicken Alfredo; not much flavor and sauce was the runniest I’ve ever had in my 66 years. The warm bread rolls were to die for; excellent service and enjoyed my specialty cocktail. My husband had the chicken parmigiana and loved it.

The meal is always wonderful as usual. We love our server Wendy she is the best. Remembers who we are from Santa Cruz. We try to go there when we come to Chukchansi but not open a lot to make reservations. It's not always open when we come during the week.
