We visited on the Sunday 25 Jan. We drove up and parked A very nice woman walking to her car to leave seen we were visiting with my disabled husband. She immediately said" let me help" and she did. Her name is Shara. She escorted us in and then made sure we had adequate seating to accommodate our needs. Later during our lunch I was told she was an employee on her way home, the end of her shift. Wow, how considerate was Shara to take her time and help us. Thank you Shara.. We also had the most delightful hostess, Heather. She also was so considerate of my husband. She makes great tartar sauce too. We had the patty melt with o ion rings and my daughter had the shrimp platter The food was great the drinks tasty and we had the best celebration for my son. I thank the you both for being so kind. It is difficult to travel with a large wheel chair and these two women made it a great day. Plus 10... read more

Just had dinner at Banta Inn I had prime rib and my wife had shrimp scampi Both meals were delicious. Perfectly prepared Cannot believe that this place is not as busy as fast food restaurants Price was below what was expected and size was big enough for take home leftovers Service was exceptional. Waitress was very attentive and came back several times to ask if we needed anything Highly recommended read more

Dinner is always great Every time we stop by Banta inn (which is mostly on Fridays so we can enjoy the clam chowder since it's the daily special and is so good!) Parking is never a problem and we always get our choice of seating right away! We love to have Tiffany as our server since she is such a superstar waitress, so lovely and always personable and accommodating. We've been there when she's been the only server in the whole place taking care of everyone in the joint as well as when it was pretty dead and we were the only ones there and she consistently provides stellar service! The food is so flavorful and tastes like home cooking! We love getting some of our favorite things every-time as well as mixing it up and adding in things we haven't tried yet and the food always tastes wonderful. read more

Not worth door dashing at least. Food arrived greasy and soggy. Everything tasted bland and unfulfilling. Maybe it would have been better fresh but not worth $50 on DoorDash for two meals. Pretty disappointing because the pictures of the food they have on DoorDash looked good. Wouldn't waste my money again. read more

Early dinner at Banta Inn tonight. The food and service was fantastic. Great hidden gem on the outskirts of town.

The restaurant is only ok, but I really liked the bar area. A local fellow told me about a good haunted experience he had there in the past. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area. read more

Overall very good experience! Just driving through town and we stumbled on this cute little spot!! Definitely would go back! Good was just right for a hearty breakfast meal! Service was fast friendly! The vibe was a mix of "the usuals" as well as "first timers"! read more

Great place for the food and fast food and great beer and the camaraderie. It's like being in cheers but smaller a perfect meal heading back or from Bay Area . And yes rummers say it haunted too. So have a great meal and drinks . And if you want to leave a dollar on the wall.... Do it ! read more

Hubby and I wanted to come in to see this historical place and have a small bite to eat. Our server was very welcoming and friendly. It was a little busy so there was a short wait no problem. We were able to walk around and look at everything. Just wish I was able to look at a binder they like to pass around tables with lots of history. We ordered a personal pizza and garlic fries. Was so hungry I forgot to post pics of our food. But we will definitely be back to try other items on the menu. Love everything about this place! read more

A group of us came to the Banta Inn on a Wednesday night and had the pleasure of having "Ashlee" as our server. Ashlee was professional, efficient and quick. She said it was only her third day and we were very impressed with how well she took care of us! read more

Came in after church and the food was very mid. Seemed all was frozen out of a package and over priced. Would not come again. Service was okay. The inside was cute though. read more

We came here with a group of 17, service was great. The young lady did a wonderful job keeping us all happy. I was very very disappointed in my Philly cheese steak sandwich, it was sooo burnt that it looked more like beef jerky, we were all surprised that they would send out something that looked that bad. Even the bread was hard. 15.00 for a very burnt sandwich....wow! Also one person in the group they forgot about her food and by the time she got hers we were getting to go boxes. read more

Not much to say here it's a greasy spoon. They seemed busy. Our order took a backseat, but no big deal. The food was average, but it was a nice watering hole to hang out with friends at. And it was great talking to the staff. read more

Highly recommended! Little hole in the wall! Delicious food! Bar! Waitresses are phenomenal!! Must try it out!!!

Randomly found it looking for a place to meet my friend from Sacramento for lunch (I came from Livermore) it felt like we were out in the middle of nowhere! We loved the historical significance --1879, I think, of the place and the inside back room felt so old-fashioned and homey. Liked it so much, I took a friend visiting from AZ there for lunch as a tourist thing to do. She really enjoyed it! The food's pretty good too and the staff was super friendly both times. I loved my fries and looking at all the cool things on the walls while we ate! read more

The people that work here are absolutely wonderful very friendly. The service is great. The ambience is old-school a lot of people a lot of farmers and locals go there to eat all the time. The food is absolutely delicious. I recommend the breakfast lunch and dinner. We've gone there for lunch and breakfast mostly the atmosphere is great people there a good folks stop by and give these guys to try for sure. read more

I came in for breakfast on a Sunday morning and there were several empty tables and three tables had customers. The first waitress never once acknowledged me. After about 5 minutes of sitting there, the other tables slowly started filling up. I was the only person sitting alone, all other tables that came in after me had four people. Another waitress came in and said that everyone would be taken care of. I had been sitting there for fifteen minutes now. The two waitresses started with the tables of four. It was as if I was invisible because I was sitting alone. No one ever once acknowledged me. So I left and won't be back. I also played Bingo there and will not return for that either. A month ago I gave them 5 stars. What a difference a month makes. read more

Sunday early dinner- We were only ones there, great food and great service. Loved looking at the rustic decor on walls, old license plates.

Always delicious!! Burgers and wings are chiefs kiss!!! Close to home and drinks are always great as well!!

Beyond disappointed in this place, I don't know if they don't pay their employees enough so therefore they just really don't care. Really wanted this local restaurant to be good so I put in an order for a BLT and a soup through DoorDash. Got a call from DoorDash that said when they got there, they were told someone else picked it up. When the door dash inquired because I got to hear the conversation the woman on the other end was very dismissive and actually didn't admit what happened. She had given the order to the wrong person. To add insult to injury, they refused to make another order so therefore I was left without the order and having to refute my charges for DoorDash. She could've said oops I didn't look well enough when they showed it to me and I gave it to the wrong person And of course because I'm in business and that's the cost of doing business I will make restitution for my mistake. Everyone makes mistakes just own up and make it right, but don't have attitude about it. Either invest in training your people or get better people. When I look closer and see that they had two health violations I'm good to go. Too bad because I really would like to see something in the Banta area do well. read more

Ok this place has really stepped its game up. Been coming here for years food is amazing they have been open during all this pandemic crap. Tracy you need to support this place read more

Banta Inn - Seafood fettuccine in red sauce amazing - Steakhouses Near Me - Tracy, California

We have been going to the banta inn for years, the last 6 months it has been the worst. We went there tonight, first we were told we couldn't have martinis because they didn't have any olives. So we ordered wine instead. We asked for two waters never received them to the very end of our meal. The lady that I was with ordered a patty melt, the waitress ordered a BLT instead, the rest of us had already finished our meal still no patty melt finally she comes out with it. Well, of course we didn't want it then we were all done eating. The worst customer service, we had to ask for silverware. It seems they were more concerned with their bingo people than with the customers in the restaurant ordering food. Very unorganized no one had a specific duty that they were doing .We won't be coming back there. Very disappointed. read more

Nice little bar here in Tracy, the staff are really friendly and they have some fun entertainment some evenings, Thursday's are lingerie night where they sell raffle tickets for various prizes. This bar is also quite famous and said to be haunted, it's been on numerous TV shows over the years. There is also a small restaurant attached to the bar where they serve from Breakfast through till Dinner. If I was to be completely honest though I wouldn't recommend the breakfasts as I was fairly let down with mine recently, the Egg's were under cooked and my Muffin was hard. They also ran out of Pancakes. The Burgers however are really good. my Husband likes the #5 with an added fried Egg and I have to agree it's a winner, the Fries are also really good. (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/banta-inn-tracy?select=kZlyBIOkWtZ6ChcPje93EA#7VxJJAIs3bten4fHBZ0fTw) Myself and Tony A recently held a UYE here and the staff were awesome. So friendly and hooked us up with some good deals including our very own Cocktail. Sadly, being a long way out in the 'burbs we didn't get quite as impressive turnout as we hoped but maybe we can get another one planned soon. Watch this space. read more

Returned to the Banta Inn last Sunday for some adult time and conversation with the wife and her cousin. After 10 Patron Silver shots, 4 Heine's (for me) and a sampler plater of mushrooms, zucchini, chicken stripes & curly fries, the bills total came in for a few cents over $100 bucks. Can you top that at your favorite watering hole? I bet not. The Banta Inn - a nice, historic, quite, quaint local saloon / restaurant to put on your bucket list to try if you've never been. read more

Barely started coming to this place and I absolutely love their food and omg the clam chowder!!! Shout out Wilma!! And the dollar bill in bar are pretty cool aesthetics read more

The food is good, but the waitress Shannon, let's just say we won't be going back anytime soon, if at all. She was very rude and we heard a few cuss words. A party of 6 who came in well after we did (we were a party of 2) got their drinks and order taken before we even got our menus. The one (only one) coffee refill Shannon provided was poured so fast it splashed over and burned my fingers. When we finally got our order, she asked if we needed anything else, and my friend said ketchup and I said Tabasco; my friend got the ketchup, I never got the Tabasco. It's so sad, my husband and I used to be 'regulars' at The Banta Inn for Sunday breakfast and I thought that maybe we could make it our go-to again. Well thanks to Shannon, that won't be the case, unfortunately. read more

Breakfast was delicious! The food portions are big and right off the grill. Johana was very attentive and kept our coffee cups full. Will definitely go back! read more

First time visit was a pleasure, Jess was very hospitable although she was dancing around several tables waitron all and an incredible job I might add. The prime rib was a bit on tough side but onion rings made up for it . Soda water and a green salad to start was just as great. The story of this business is what attracts me most. All said Jess was awesome food was good and timing was perfect. Thanks again to the help! read more

Friendly staff. Great food and family friendly. Love the tri tip and chicken noodle soup
