She was attentive throughout the meal, regularly checking on us and making sure our coffee cups were never empty. I ordered The Grizz, and every component of the meal was flavorful and well-prepared.

Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience with great food and exceptional service. We'll definitely be coming back.

I was hoping to have that same experience again at the Hanford location, but unfortunately this visit was very disappointing. The corned beef hash I was served tasted old and reheated, and it was so overcooked that it was dry. I sent it back, and while the replacement wasn't dried out, it still tasted old. The hash browns were also poor quality -- it looked like damaged parts of the potatoes had been chopped up and cooked instead of being trimmed off. There were pieces in them that really should not have been served. I even took a picture of one piece that appeared black. Very disappointing compared to my first experience.

Staying at The Irwin Street Inn and Restaurant was a wonderful experience. We stayed at the Inn…read morefor the first time in March 2024. We were met by Ricky, the Manager, and a very friendly and accommodating person with many interesting stories to tell about the Inn. He does an excellent job managing the Inn and he made our stay that much more enjoyable. The Restaurant and main part of the Inn is a historical landmark, built in 1886. The interior of the Inn and Restaurant are beautiful, with antique furnishings, stain glassed windows, tables overlooking the expansive courtyard, lined with trees and a stately Camphor tree that is over 100 years old. The restaurant offers a wonderful dining experience, with polished antique wood including the full-service bar, stained glass windows and lovely artwork. The menu offers many choices, the chef is excellent and the prices are more than reasonable, Our room overlooked the courtyard. The Inn is very quiet with the only sound being the soothing sound of a train in the distance. We couldn't have been happier with the room, high ceilings, adorned with antique furnishings, a large stained glass window, lovely artwork, and a very comfortable bed. The room was very clean. The highlight of the room was the large Victorian tub. We were to learn that someone quite famous recently stayed in our room. If you are a cat lover, there are a couple of friendly resident cats that like to interact with the guests, one lovely little cat named "Keno" who made our stay all that much more enjoyable. The Inn is just a few minutes' walk from the beautiful Civic Center Park and the historic Hanford Fox Theater, one of the few remaining theaters built in the 20s, which is fully restored to its 1929 elegance. The Park also has many restaurants, cafes and shops. Hanford was declared one of the 12 "Hidden Gems" in America Better Homes and Garden magazine and Architecture Magazine. The Irwin Street Inn location is perfect for exploring Hanford. Whether it is for planning a business convention, planning a Wedding, or just for a weekend getaway, The Irwin Street Inn is the perfect place. If you are planning on exploring the Sequoia National Park, the Inn is less than an hour's drive to the Park. We could not have been happier with the Irwin Street Inn and cannot recommend it highly enough. You are guaranteed to have a wonderful experience staying there. We hope to be back soon

They do have some specials up until 10:00 AM, but don't be 5 minutes late at your table. And remember, you have to allow 15-20 min to be seated. Other than that, they do offer some small meal specials through the day that are often just the amount of food I'm looking for. Other than sometimes extreme wait times, the service is pretty good. We have enjoyed the food and the restaurant is always clean and neat. It does seem to be needing some corporate help in getting their act together regarding the proper way to timely seat and serve which may be a manager problem and an overseer may be able to fix it right quickly.
