My wife and I had dinner at Restaurant 301 on June 15, 2009. We started with a salad which was very plain and bland. We then ordered the salmon, it was also very plain and over-salted. The salmon was served with a very small portion of "just okay" vegetables in this stacked food presentation. The meal concluded with a dessert... more

We dined here last August. It took more than 40 minutes for our wine to arrive, and more than an hour before our appetizers were served. Aside from the poor service, the entrees were ok. The food was overpricied and the restaurant was pretentious. On the other hand, eating at Hurricane Kate's in Eureka, Trattoria in Sunnyvale, and Folie Deuce... more

We stopped at the Carter House Inn for a night and decided to have dinner at their restaurant. What a wonderful, wonderful surprise! The carrot-ginger soup and rib eye steak were the best I had ever eaten and my husband raved about his king salmon. He devoured his apple strudel which was fine my me because I was not about... more

I always go to 301 for special occasions and find it to be an exqiusite experience. The chef, Cory Smith, has an exceptional palate and the combination of ingredients could not be better paired. What really impressed me about his cooking was the presentation of the food. It always comes out looking like an amazing art peice, in which, I... more

I have lived up and down the coast of California and have eaten at many fine restaurants. I have to say the service here is one of the worst experiences I have had for this price range for dining. If not for the good company of friends, this night out would have been a great disappointment. The service was terrible!!!... more

We just got home from a 5 course dinner at Cafe 301 in Eureka, Ca. The restaraunt was empty which is never a good sign. We were apprehensive because past reviews were less than stellar. I am happy to report that the meal was fantastic. I wish I could remember our waiters name because he did an excellent job pairing... more

Restuarant 301 gives itself rave reviews. We have eaten there twice now. First time was not impressive, so we decided to give them a second chance. Temperature in the restuarant was freezing. Our appetizers were oversalted, actually everything we ate was oversalted. All three of our meals came out burnt...so we sent them back. By the time our meals came... more
