Yesterday we had a Celebration of Life for my brother…read more Since his funeral was in Hollister, We tried to find somewhere that would accommodate about 100 people and nobody returned our calls. So I looked up the 10 best in Hollister and Harvest Time Roadhouse popped up. We showed up in various groups - almost hitting 100 people. They did not hesitate to accommodate our very large group. There is a separate large room to the left and an outdoor area which worked out incredibly well for us and our family. The entire staff was on point and did not miss a beat, got every single food and drink order and were so kind and empathetic to our entire group of family and friends. The staff was so amazing - especially Candace. That girl is top notch and took the best care of ALL of us. I didn't catch the other server helping Candace or the other bar tenders but they were ALL great! The food was good. Drinks were good w/ lots of great draft beers on tap AND have N/A beers (super important these days) and so so reasonably priced for all the great service and amount of food and drinks we got. Ps I'm vegan and they even have vegan options! Huge shout out and the sincerest thanks to Candace m, the entire staff, cooks and the owner. Can't say enough of how well they took great care of all of us! So grateful. It took lots off our family to end a hard day there.

After a long day hiking through Pinnacles National Park, walking into Paine's Restaurant felt like…read moreaccidentally stepping through a portal into another era, one where people dressed for dinner and nobody was eating fries out of a paper bag in their car. White tablecloths, cozy booths, elegant decor, smooth music floating in the background... the whole place has classic old-school steakhouse energy in the best possible way. The bar area was already lively when we arrived around 4:50 p.m., and little by little the dining room filled up too. For a small town, this place was humming. Always a reassuring sign when hungry hikers are making important dinner decisions. Carmen, our server, was absolutely superb. Warm, professional, genuinely friendly, and her recommendations were spot on. The kind of service that quietly elevates the whole evening without making a performance out of it. We shared a ribeye with peppercorn sauce, a pear and prosciutto salad, and a deeply decadent chocolate dessert because apparently our bodies decided we had "earned it" after the trails. Honestly? Fair. The steak was beautifully prepared, flavorful and satisfying. The salad balanced everything nicely, and dessert fully committed to richness without apology. The only small miss for me was the mashed potatoes, which could have used a touch more creaminess. They seemed emotionally reserved. I also had a Manhattan that was expertly crafted, smooth, balanced, and exactly the kind of cocktail you want while sinking into a booth after miles of hiking. We genuinely enjoyed ourselves here. It felt less like dinner and more like a reward ceremony for surviving the trails, the sun, and our knees negotiating every downhill section.

The decor is nice with white cloth tablecloths. The menu has a lot of different choices. My wife ordered the fish special. A sole in a white wine and cream sauce with capers. I ordered veal saltimbocca ( veal with prosciutto with a white wine and caper brown sauce. My wife lived her dish. She said the fish was quite nice and the risotto was flavorful. My saltmbocca was delicious but a bit over cooked. My side were good but nothing. Special.The dessert menu had several options. My wife choose the crème burle and I a berry cup with grand manure. Both were tasty and the crème burle had a crunchy top and creamy custard. Note they have an extensive wine list including some iconic wines.

While dining and after we left, I was trying to figure out what they liked about this spot. The service was nothing special and the food was meh. I hadn't ate all day so I finished my food, but nobody else in my party was happy with their orders. I ordered the BBQ tri tip sandwich and subbed the fries for a side salad. My relatives got the cheeseburger and the oak fired 16oz ribeye. My BBQ tri tip sandwich was so difficult to eat as a sandwich since the meat was tough and the bread got soggy super fast. I ended up taking the sandwich apart, slicing the meat, and creating a makeshift steak salad. My aunt did not like her cheeseburger at all. My uncle's ribeye was cooked more than he had asked for. The meal was not worth it at all. I will say that I do like the decor and music played here but that's about it...

My favorite cuts are the spicy sirloin and the filet mignon. I also really enjoy the cheese with honey. Overall this place is a win and if you're looking for an all you can eat steakhouse this is your place.
