    Recently visited for a birthday celebration. Super disappointed with veggie offerings - used to be a star of the menu. Bland and extremely small portion for $24. Tempeh was store bought, tasteless, and overpriced.

    Dawn, we are so sorry that your time at Restaurant 17 did not meet our standards or your expectations. We take pride in being able to provide all of our guests with the best possible experience, regardless of dietary restrictions; unfortunately missed the mark with you all. We would love to invite you back to enjoy a dinner with our compliments. We hope to see you again soon and look forward to the opportunity to make it up to you.

    The Rosetta Dip was excellent, the steak and chicken were average. Nothing wrong with either, but nothing great taste wise. There is no Chocolate on dessert Menu. The White lights you see and expect to sit under on the Patio are not there. disappointing. Waitress was knowledgeable and polite but I ate 3/4's of my meal with neither a Wine or water refilll, Walked to car and got a water bottle.

    Restaurant 17Responded 7 days ago

    Pete, while we are thrilled that you enjoyed the Ricotta Dip, we are sorry that the rest of your meal with us did not follow suit. We do have multiple outdoor seating areas, with the white lights on our courtyard, but not on our patio seating. Unfortunately, we did not have a chocolate option the evening that you were in, but our dessert menu changes often. Thank you so much for spending your time with us, and we look forward to seeing you all again.

    We live close to the restaurant and last night we just dropped in to celebrate a special date for us and to watch the sun set over the mountains. We sat at the bar and enjoyed a charcuterie plate, salad and bread along with a couple of great cocktails. The bar was not busy so we had exquisite service. The food came out quickly and was great. We had the peach salad which was full of late summer peaches and dried figs with pickled onions and feta cheese. The charcuterie board was so full of wonderful options that we were not even able to finish it completely. It is a great dish for a quick bar drop-in. We enjoyed a wonderful sunset, great food and a very pleasant evening.

    Restaurant 17 used to be hit-or-miss but they have definitely stepped up their game the past several years. The food is now consistently excellent and the service is superb. Our waiter last night was extremely knowledgeable about the entrees and our selections overall. While the charcuterie plate is one of their best offerings, the olive oil crackers, which used to be amazing, have been a bit disappointing the last two times we have dined there. Last night, the crackers were clearly stale and disappointing. Not sure what is going on here -- new recipe, new person making them? Whatever. They need to get back to the absolutely best crackers on the planet as soon as they can. Nonetheless, we'll be back. We are hoping the olive oil crackers are back to their usual amazing quality!

    Outstanding food in a beautiful setting! My husband and I enjoyed dining on the courtyard. The tables are very well spaced and the sound of the fountains made our conversation very private. Service was accommodating and well paced. Food was delicious! Trout was perfectly prepared and the chicken was a generous portion! My only slight negative feedback would be when we first arrived. Our hostess seemed a bit rattled which came across as less than welcoming. Our server and rest of staff quickly rectified our first impressions though.

    Prices are well within the scale of a restaurant that has this level of excellence. All four of us ordered a different entree and couldn't have been more pleased. The hotel area was fantastic. Curling up in the super comfy wing back chairs with a book in the library may keep you there for hours. The views of the mountains from the fire pit, the fountain area, or the hotel rooms are majestic. The owners have taken an almost forgotten structure and turned it into a wonderful escape from the daily hustle. Whether it's a daycation or a longer stay, you won't be disappointed, until you have to leave.

    Beautiful setting and lovely restaurant for a special occasion. We attended Sunday brunch. The menu was varied and cooked to order. The food was very good and nicely plated. Portions were smaller than expected but the pricing was reasonable for the quality received. The offering of non alcoholic beverages and 'mocktals' was excellent. Fabulous wine and spirit list, with alcohol percentage noted but oddly, without pricing. The dessert was lack luster. Only one offering and nothing was baked in house. Expected a dessert menu. They did accommodate gluten free diet of one of our party. Service was adequate but average as all restaurants are suffering from the same lack of skilled servers. Worth the 35 minute drive and we will return again. This hotel is steeped in cycling history and the story was not written on the menu.

    Brunch menu looked promising, if a bit pricey. Ordered grass-fed burger w/fries and french toast w/potatoes and scrambled eggs. Everything was well-prepared, and the potatoes (both french fries and mixed potato hash) were excellent. Burger (w/provolone) was beautiful but a bit bland (even with the on-board onion jam). French toast was tasty but thinner and less "eggy" than I prefer. Service was amiable and the setting at Hotel Domestique is quite nice.
