    1850 Fries
    Mary D.

    We spent a day in Yosemite and stayed in Mariposa, and we wanted to grab something for dinner. We saw that 1850 was nearby and had decent reviews, so we wanted to try for ourselves. We parked right at the front with the gravel and got our names put down for two people. The hostess was very nice and gave us a buzzer for when our table would be ready. It took no more than 5 minutes before it buzzed and we got in. The restaurant itself is very cozy and decorated well. We sat at a table that used hanging doors as dividers, which we thought was a neat idea. The lighting was nice, not too bright but also not super dim. Our server told us about some specials and also recommended a few different meals. We took up her offer on fries and went with that. Even though it technically was a shareable, it was a huge serving! The fries were perfectly crunchy with a soft interior. The steak was also really juicy and tender, not too chewy at all. The sauces and cheese mixed in with the fries were also the perfect balance of salty, crunchy goodness. The salmon was deliciously soft and moist. They paired very nicely with the creamy mashed potatoes and steamed broccoli. We worked together to just barely finished the salmon and take most of the steak and fries home for leftovers. If you are in the area, I definitely recommend this spot! The quality and amount of food makes the price worth it. If we're ever visiting the area again, we'll definitely stop by 1850!

    Great roadside stop on the way into Yosemite wth a great sandwich menu. The whitewashed brick walls make you feel like you're back a 100 years or so, and besides the TV and air conditioning, you might feel like you've stopped in after a long day panning for gold. In terms of taste, the garlic fries delivered gold-rush flavor with a perfectly crispy coating and very freshly pressed garlic. Many of the sandwiches come on sourdough, and after having fresh from Boudin in San Francisco, this bread really compares well. My wife ordered the wings, and they are meaty! We sat at the bar to watch England vs Argentina in the World Cup, and our server was helpful and engaging. Overall, I recommend this place for great food and service.

    Went here to watch world cup. friendly bartender, fast service, great food. 10/10 recommend for a quick stop. try the rueben it's yummyyyy

    Got the chicken wings and ruben sandwich. Absolutely yum with great service, clean bar, and lovely atmosphere. So glad we stopped here, thank you 1850

    Came here for dinner while staying in Mariposa for a wedding. It was soooo good. We got a beer flight, onion rings, bacon bbq burger, and buffalo wings. The wings were perfectly saucy, crispy, and meaty just how we like them. The burger's bun was so soft and the bacon was thick. Garlic fries and onion rings were crispy and perfectly cooked. The ranch seemed house made. Overall great choice, and all the girls working were friendly and there was great service overall.

    Service was quick and friendly. The portion sizes are large so make sure you're hungry! But the food was really great, especially after spending a day hiking in Yosemite! Highly recommend stopping in for a bite! I got the Mac and cheese, it was so cheesy and gooey

    1850 Brewing Company in Mariposa was excellent. The food was outstanding, the cider was surprisingly good, and the service was stellar. A special thank you to Sheila, who was not even our server but kept checking on us, answering questions, and making us feel welcome. I honestly thought she might be an owner because she cared that much. The over all atmosphere was welcoming and like everyone knew you or was willing to get to know you. I had the Steak House Burger and could only eat half because it was huge. My girlfriend had the 1850 Fries loaded with steak, cheese, parmesan, garlic, and more, and they were amazing. You simply must eat here. I also included a photo with Sheila and my friend Kevin who also had joined us for the meal.

    Amazing spot and always a great time! We love that they're dog friendly and we enjoy the beautiful days on their patio. Drinks and food are amazing, staff is always very friendly! The pups enjoyed the dog bowl with a puppy patty (plain burger patties)! Went with the Apple cider Paloma and Diablo margarita today, whooooh, some heat on that last one! Great beers too! Very good and a great place to stop!

    Y'all, this place is bomb! I wasn't really sure what to expect because I didn't check it out beforehand at all; my partner told me they'd have good beer and good food, so I went in blind! It's cute inside, a small bar area and a bigger dining space. Shabby-Chic Cowboy vibes. It was seat yourself, but they run your food and drinks. (Dinner is full service though.) I loved my beer--the White Wolf--which wasn't overbearing with the fruit at all! It was perfectly balanced and delightfully refreshing on this hot summer day! But it was the 1850 fries that stole the show!! That smoky pub cheese?! I want a 5 gallon bucket's worth to take home with me next time. The fries are SO garlicky, the steak bites perfectly seasoned! You gotta get an order. Trust me.

    First time eating at 1850 even after driving through Mariposa each year for the past 7 years to go to Yosemite. Honestly just never noticed it from the road and the next door burger place gets all the advertising and is quite apparent. We came on a Sunday afternoon after leaving Yosemite and found a comfy corner booth with AC right above us. Seat yourself and then go order at the front. We ordered and drinks came quickly and our food was out fairly soon after. We ordered way too much food as the "small plates" are basically entree size. The salmon cakes surprised me and were my favorite. I heard from those dining with me that the burger was delicious, the steak was decent and the small plates were tasty. Grabbed a couple mix packs of beers on the way out as well! Stop by if you're driving through Mariposa!

    Don't worry fooled. This is only half of the Hot Shot with Garlic fries. Delicious!

    First and foremost Mariposa does a great job at not only being my favorite little mountain town, but it also has incredible food. 1850 is no exception. From the delicious blackberry muddled Mocktail mule to the delicious hazy my guy got and just wait, the food. The restaurant itself is not small, but not big. I say that in a good way. You can hear the multitude of conversations taking place between what appeared to be some locals, but a lot of tourists. Being a town that's directly en route to your trip to Yosemite, I HIGHLY suggest this be one of your foodie spots. The staff is insanely friendly. Our waitress was nice and did a great job not making me feel 'extra' when I asked for the burger to be cut, she went above and beyond and had both our dinners split into 2. She understood our assignment ( order different things so they can be split and tasted by both my boyfriend and myself.) So, the food. When I say, those Ahi Tuna Nachos were very flavorful, I mean it. If wasabi isn't your thing, don't get it. If it is, yum yum. We ordered the Hot Shot burger with the upgraded garlic fries. The only 'negative' I can say about the entire meal is the burger did have a lot going on (in the best way) and maybe that's why it stood out more, but the patty, noticeably great quality, lacked salt. I'm not an add salt to everything kind of girl but I believe this would have taken it over the top if it had salt and pepper more blended into the patty. Tip: if you like a kick, order this. If you can't handle spice, opt-out. And if you love garlic, spend the extra change and upgrade those fries to the garlic. You won't regret it. Lastly, the surf and turf. The New York was cooked beautifully, as was the shrimp. Delicious. But what stole the show? The rosemary cream sauce that topped the steak. One of the best sauces I've ever had. It was such a great asset to the steak. Also, the mashed potatoes were full of flavor, creamy, and with some of that rosemary sauce, oh lord. Thank you 1850 for giving us an amazing anniversary weekend getaway meal!

    1850 Restaurant and Brewery in Mariposa, Ca is an amazing restaurant... or is it an amazing micro brewery? Whatever... the food is amazing, and the beer is a favorite among local beer lovers in Mariposa, Merced and Tuolumne Counties, and in everywhere in the southern gold country in the Sierra Nevada foothills. As you enter the restaurant, you're meeted and greeted by a friendly hostess. 1850 Restaurant and Brewery operates on what I call the "taqueria format." Alright... I'll explain... You walk up to the counter and you're greeted by a friendly staff member, You check out the menu from the overhead menu - in this case the printed menu - you order your food, you pay for it, in return you receive a "number." and You seat yourself at the open table of your choice. When your order is ready, it will be brought to you by a friendly server. On this Friday morning shortly after opening, the restaurant wasn't busy, so I didn't receive a "number," as my friendly server, Shelby, remembered me. From the "Lunch" section of the menu, I went with "Fish and Chips," which is one of my favorite meals, any time of day, any day of the week. Three generous fillets of cod fish were seasoned, battered, and perfectly deep fried, and placed on coleslaw. Oh my... such a perfect mixture of tender, white fish, and delicious batter! The fish was seated on a mixture of coleslaw and cabbage, which made for a beautiful presentation, and delightful dining. The slice on lemon made today's lunch even more delicious! The "chips" were basically fries, medium size, seasoned and deep fried to a perfect, crispy golden brown on the outside, and tender and juicy inside. Oh my! Simply delicious, and a great side to the fish. The tartar sauce that was included as a condiment wasn't your mom's every day garden variety from a bottle, as it was seasoned with dill, along with a touch of mustard, and was thick, creamy and simply delicious! Talk about a great dip for the fish! Simply delicious. Oh yes! ... I'd enjoy this amazing dip for everything, any day of the week! 1850 Restaurant and Brewery serves delicious fish and chips in beautiful Mariposa, located near the southern end of CA Highway 49, and the gold country. This is Five Star Dining any way you look at it!

    We stopped here on the way back from Yosemite, and stopped by the place as they offered outdoor seating for our dog. I ordered the grilled chicken and my wife got the steak salad. The service was fast, and the food was very flavorful. I was definitely surprised by this restaurant in this small town. For dessert we had 'death by chocolate'. The cake was decently moist, but could use a scoop of ice cream on the side Overall would definitely recommend this place if you are driving through Mariposa on your way to Yosemite

    Patio dining on a lovely autumn night.

One thing that puzzled us a tiny bit was the "specials" appeared to be identical to menu options, but no harm, no foul. The service was very friendly, knowledgable and very well executed. It was accurate and reasonably quick. The food was outstanding. We started with very nice small dinner salads, and the garlic bread brought to the table was well done. We had Chicken Alfredo with Feta, and the Rib Eye Steak. Both were sensational (the chicken benefitted from a squeeze of lemon). The portions were large, and the preparation was perfect. The steak was exactly as ordered, and was the best steak we've had in some time. The chicken was cooked well and the pasta was perfect. The vegetables were great, seasoned and steamed, retaining a bit of crunch. Desert was an event! We had the cheesecake, which was very good, and the chocolate mocha ice cream pie. Oh, my goodness! That pie! It was at least 5" high, and covered a desert plate edge to edge, and it was a coffee and chocolate fantasy with a toffee crust! Out of this world! Simply epic. The only photo we managed was the salad. Everything else we were too busy digging in to! If you're in (or passing through) Mariposa, by all means, go! We certainly will be back.

The experience got off to a rough start when we waited five minutes before anyone acknowledged us or told us where to sit. Once seated, we waited an hour for our food. During that time, we learned that multiple menu items were unavailable. Given the long wait, we expected the food to be worth it, but when it finally arrived, much of it was poor quality and not edible. The most upsetting part of the evening was that our children were already tired and hungry from the long wait, and the overall atmosphere became increasingly uncomfortable. Nearby diners began making negative comments about our children, which left everyone feeling upset and unwelcome. After waiting so long and having such a poor experience, we were surprised that we were still charged for food that was largely left uneaten. I understand that restaurants can have difficult nights, staffing shortages, or unexpected issues. It was clear that the staff were going through a hard time. However, between the lack of service, long wait, unavailable menu items, disappointing food, and uncomfortable atmosphere, this was one of the worst restaurant experiences our family has had in a long time. After leaving, we ate at another restaurant in town and mentioned our experience to a local resident who said she had lived in Mariposa for more than 30 years and had repeatedly had negative experiences at Miners'. Hearing that made us feel like our experience may not have been an isolated incident. I hope management takes steps to improve both the customer experience and food quality going forward.
