Trillium Cafe & Inn

We went here for dinner to celebrate a birthday. Everything was fabulous...from the dark beer to the brussel sprouts, scallops, cod and the gnocchi. The espresso dessert topped it off. And our waitress was delightful and played off our humor. Appreciated the cozy feel. Would definitely return.

Trillium is in the heart of little Mendocino, and has attracted world class chefs! this little restaurant even has a dessert and pastry chef that makes all the desserts, including the ice cream and sorbet from scratch. I had a coconut and almond cake with homemade banana ice cream unbelievably good ! For a main course I had an amazing cod in miso sauce with a little bok choy and other vegetables thrown in. It was astounding! To top it off the service was very friendly and efficient. just right to provide a comfortable and small town feel and a lovely easy-going atmosphere.

Great attentive and cordial staff. Fabulous Blue cheese salad and flatiron steak cooked perfectly medium rare with the wild mushroom demi glaze. The local black cod in a miso kombocha sauce was delightful with subtle flavors. The desserts were egually stellar. Great meal . Gen, our waitress was terrific .

Sandra and the crew were over the top accommodating. I stayed here at the inn for two nights while a storm rolled through and got to watch it from the upper floor room. The room was very clean and cozy with quality coffee to brew in the morning and comfortable chairs to do some reading. The restaurant down stairs was delicious offering fine cuisine without a pretentious feel and continued charming service. All and all a great couple of days spent here at trillium. Thank you.

We enjoyed the Blue Cheese Salad and Scallop starters and the pork chop and ribeye for mains. The steak was was very tender and cooked perfectly. The pork chop was decent. There are some red wines by the glass that were good, but not fantastic. Service was relaxed, but professional. Our server Jen was attentive. As other reviews noted - Good service, Good food - with the scallops and Ribeye being excellent. Nice for a special night out.
