Maude

Amazing experience! The food was super fresh and some ingredients were directly plucked from the flower in front of me. The pigeon was to die for and the abalone was the best abalone I’ve ever had the pleasure of eating. For dessert you go to a different room which had a very different ambience. Loved the creativity of all the different foods. Would definitely come again to try out another tasting menu in the future!

Expectations were high for Maude and I have to say they delivered in pretty much every way that counted. If I'm going to nitpick, restaurant is small, lighting darker than I'd like but the main reason you're here, the food, it was mostly excellent. Across as many courses as there were, naturally there will be favorites and some less so but quality of ingredients, attention to detail with the presentation and how the dishes were put together, all top notch. Please do your due diligence, this is a Michelin starred fine dining establishment and the pricing is in line with similar restaurants. The meal, not counting dessert is 9 courses and if you're worried you may be left wanting for more at the end like I did, I assure you that you'll be more than satisfied by the time the last dessert is served, yes, I said last, there is more than one dessert course. Overall I would highly recommend going. Plan in advance, reservations can be weeks out if not longer. Enjoy the pictures.

What a beautifully elegant experience I had at Maude last night. The food and presentation was spectacular. The service was attentive, knowledgeable and friendly without being overbearing. I dined alone and can't believe I was there for over 2 hours because I was so involved and excited by the courses to come. Everything stood out and was equally delicious so I can't choose a favorite. Thank you all for a lovely experience. I will be back!

Outstanding fine dining in a laid back setting. The food quality and chef's technique are top tier. The staff is very attentive and friendly, it feels like a less formal version of the French Laundry. The atmosphere is intimate and well done.

We like to try Michelin Starred restaurants when we’re on vacation and this was our favorite place, so far. We were pleasantly surprised with every tasting and some dishes really knocked it out of the park. I would describe each dish but it’s a changing menu so it wouldn’t be helpful here. I can say that every dish was prepared perfectly, delicately flavorful over the top and most of all delicious. The staff worked together as a team, serving our dishes in sync; they were very informative and expertly described each dish as it was served. I’ve been a fan of Curtis’s for a very long time and he just happened to e there enjoying a meal with his family, which was very exciting for me. I wanted so badly to act like a tourist & fan & ask for his autograph, but it seemed like it wasn’t the right thing to do, at the time, so I respectfully let them have their meal in peace. I’ve seen his current works on PBS; Field Trip With Relish and he has a special gift of portraying the wonderful feelings of traveling and discovering the local foods in whatever region he’s visiting. I felt that way eating at his restaurant, like being transported through food, to this region. I’d love to be at on of those dinners, Ooh La La! Thank you Curtis for all your creations…We ❤️ Maude. THE BEST EVER❣️

Food that pleases the eyes and the stomach equally. Truly a beautiful display of contemporary Californian cuisine. I also appreciated how the staff was able to accommodate gluten-free, dairy-free, and nut-free for my dining partner.

My advice - don't eat lunch. A lovely experience in an intimate setting. The wine pairing was on point - worth the price. The end of the meal was an 'elevated' surprise! ?

Great dinner tasting menu! Very polite and accommodating stuff, great service and food quality! Great idea with desert - wine room :)
