Restaurant 301 is a full service restaurant which is open nightly. It has been awarded the Wine Spectator Award and was given a Zagat rating. Frommer's Guide chose Restaurant 301 as one of the "Best Restaurants in California." The wine list, which include 3,500 wines, was heralded as the Best American wine list in the world by Restaurant and Hospitality Magazine. The menu includes a five-course prix fixe dinner, a regional dinner on Wednesdays, and fabulous, fresh meals made with local foods and greens picked from our garden. There is also a full bar and wine shop with 2000 vintages. Upon request, guests can dine privately in the wine shop when ordering the prix fixe dinner. A full breakfast is served here and is included with room rates.

Or menus are dynamic, changing with the seasons and based on an ultra-fresh garden to table philosophy.  The Carter's passion for using only the freshest produce in the cooking at their inn ultimately led them to begin their own organic gardens.  Today Carter House maintains the most extensive kitchen gardens used in any local inn on the west coast.  Garden produce is generally served the same day it is harvested.
