It was so yummy! My dad even copied me because he loved it so much. We all had the sourdough bread and it was out of this world! The waitress was so kind. I also like that there's lots of plants where we ate.

This was such a disappointing experience. My friend chose Stone House because she had had good…read moreexperiences there at Happy Hour and was excited about trying the upstairs dining room. The venue itself is beautiful. The martini was good. Unfortunately, that's about all I can recommend. It was a Sunday night at 6pm. The rock band downstairs was annoying (and playing to an almost empty bar), half the entrees on the menu were not available, and the pizza we were able to order seemed underdone and floppy. When we communicated our disappointment, no accommodation was offered. We were the only table in the dining room. I can understand why.

Where to start... we sat alone for what felt like a full lunar cycle before a waiter even appeared…read more I ordered the Burrata appetizer, expecting bread or crackers or something... but nope. Just a lonely ball of cheese. So there I was, sitting with my family eating raw Burrata like a sad kid housing ice cream after being called Shamu on the playground. I asked for my salad and lamb lollipops to come out at the same time... apparently "same time" means "after a few geological eras," because my salad arrived first, then we experienced another Industrial Revolution or two... and at long last the lamb finally made its grand entrance. Unfortunately when it hit the table it was definitely still bleating. The lamb was absurdly undercooked, but I was starving and desperate to leave, so down it went. My sister's lamb was so rare we named it Dolly and set it free to live its best cloned life in the meadow. We would've ordered more drinks, but no one ever bothered to check if we were still alive or thirsty. The one redeeming quality? The place looks beautiful. The décor is on point and the live piano singer was genuinely great... but I don't usually go to restaurants for interior design and concert vibes. Sorry, Stone House... I won't be back.

Of course, we couldn't leave without buying some of the tea to take home! I absolutely loved our visit and will definitely be coming back.

Went for Rapunzel tea. Felt food wasn't as good. The salmon…read moresandwich wasn't great The frittata was dry and bland. The scone only came w jam and no clotted cream unless you knew to ask for it. Service seemed frazzled even though you have mandatory 18% tip for everyone. If we have to tip that much... perhaps hire a 3rd server?? I mean, the servers are probably getting at least $150+ in tips for 1.5hr of service... that's $100/hr in tips alone. The tea for the kids wasn't served until we asked either. The biggest negative this time is the giant TV playing Tangled. The screen time just stole all the girls attention and it was hard to get them to engage for photos, food, etc. If we wanted to just have the girls absorbed in TV we'd just stay home and watch tv for free... we weren't seated so close to the tv last time so it wasn't an issue but... i just think it really takes away from the experience if u end up near the giant tv

Some things are just too good to last. Sadly this place is one of them…read more **LOCATION & DECOR** The decor hasn't changed--wooden floors, brick walls, high ceilings, and sparse seating. It's always been minimal yet warm, but something felt off this time and the one before. The usual calming video of California waves was missing, replaced with a blank wall and '50s oldies music that completely clashed with the vibe. It felt disconnected from what usually made this place so special. **FOOD & DRINK** Ramen: Severely under-seasoned and watery. What used to be a flavorful, hearty bowl now feels lackluster and uninspired. Wakame Salad: The portion was noticeably smaller--20-30% less than usual. Not what I've come to expect from this place. PRICE: $$ I've always been willing to pay premium pricing for the quality, atmosphere, and service, but this time, it just didn't deliver. **SWAG/AMENITIES** - Cozy and unique decor (still a plus) - Menu variety for tea and ramen lovers - Used to have a calming atmosphere (not this time) **STAFF & EXPERIENCE** This is where things really fell apart. The service was slow from the start--30 minutes for drinks, 40+ minutes for ramen. The servers were dry, unpersonable, and barely engaged with us. They didn't introduce themselves or try to make any connection. It's hard not to miss Jenna, who was always warm, kind, and inviting. She had a way of making the experience unforgettable, and maybe even made the food taste better! **FINAL THOUGHTS** Mantra Tea House used to be my favorite spot in town. I came here regularly, twice a month, and never thought I'd feel this let down. The food, service, and atmosphere have all taken a dive, and it's just not the same place I fell in love with. Sadly, I think this was my last visit.

I ordered the shrimp ramen which I believe was $24!! came with 4 shrimps, head off and the broth was so watery and under seasoned I was really bummed!! Their crab cakes were pretty good but also expensive $23 I believe for appetizer, very small portion just one crab cake drinks were cheaper. I would come back here just to drink tea or sake but food was meh for the price. Wish they would make it $12 for the ramen or add some more toppings/seasonings if they want to keep the price.... It's Bay Area prices lacking the flavor

It's a beautiful wedding venue tucked among the mountains. The couple were attentive and did their best to serve us in a timely manner. It seems like they have a handful of guests at a time. The real highlight is the highland cow tours. Our guide was super knowledgeable and you can tell he has a really strong relationship with the cows. We loved being able to get up close and pet them. The wine itself was good. I think I preferred the Chardonnay and Rose. There was also great pizza being served by what seemed to be a local young man. The wood fire gave the pizza a great char. I would say the fig and balsamic was a little on the sweet side so I would recommend less honey/fig/sweet balsamic glaze.
