Muttley's | Downtown

Food wasn't prepared as you would expect when paying for a meal which is in a price range from $16-$30 per plate. Steak was cooked in a pan, and undercooked-not as ordered. For the price of the steak, it should be grilled. Service was poor, prices for meals were way too high for what was being offered. I ordered the pasta and it was a heated up pasta dish and sauce that was pre-packaged. Very disappointing and expensive.

Making reservations here was one of the best ideas we had this trip. The staff was very friendly, and the atmosphere of this cozy restaurant was inviting, down to earth, but still fine dining. The menu was pricey, but not more than expected for this kind of dining. I've read reviews that day the portions were small, and although they were small, we had so many courses to the meal, they were perfectly portioned to where we were satisfied with each course. The soup and salad were both delicious; the steak was cooked perfect; the potatoes were wonderful; and the mouse cake for dessert was to die for! We will definitely be going back the next time we are in Davis. I would highly recommend.

Historic building so it was a bit warm. Dont worry about large portions because that is not the case here. The salad that comes with the entrees is tiny, good stuff but tiny. I had the housemade balsamic and my hubby the housemade parmesan dressing, both very good. Entrees say they come with choice of vegetables my choice was french fries or brussel sprouts with kale. I cannot do fries so I got the upcharged portabella mushrooms which were ok, a bit salty. Never heard fries considered a veggie before. The peppercorn filet was tender well cooked pepper is strong, would have liked more of the bleu cheese sauce. Hubby was happy with his fettuccine alfredo.

The other night I was part of a group of 5 that dined at Muttley’s Steakhouse. It was Leaf Peeper’s Festival weekend so believe it or not Davis was very busy. We made 7pm reservations a day in advance and the table was ready when we arrived. We were seated promptly and the hostess took our drink order. After a brief wait the server took our orders. A water carafe was placed on the table and refilled as needed. Our salads arrived promptly and were delivered to us with minimal confusion. They were quite small but good. We all had steaks. All were cooked as requested and no one was disappointed with their food with the exception that there was a consensus that the strip stakes were cut too thin. The server accommodated our request for separate checks and only complained a little. The atmosphere is quaint as they made the best of a very old building. Overall I was happy with my experience and I would dine there again.

Horrible customer service from our waitress it took her over an hour to refill water and they were not busy. She was also very gossipy about us it was so uncomfortable hearing her talk about us to another waitress.. We we're there for about 3 hours it took forever for our food to come then when it did it was overcooked and small portioned and very expensive no matter what you get.. My advice don't go here and take your money to Hellbenders where you will always get your
worth.

Was not disappointed in stopping in for dinner here, especially on a Wednesday which happened to be burger night. We both had well done burgers with bacon, mushrooms, and roasted red peppers. Delicious and juicy, not to mention hot off the grill. Our waitress was very sweet and attentive. Loved that old time restaurant vibe. It was like stepping back in time. Yes, as others have mentioned the bathrooms are small, but hey!, that's not a place where one eats their meals. LOL Quiet dining to relax in after hiking and sightseeing as noise level is moderate.

Great steakhouse! Friendly service. Theme on the wall art is old time western movies -William S. Hart and others. Very interesting! And they have potato ramp soup! The New York strip was perfect!

Excellent food. Husband had the Caribbean chicken, I had a dinner salad with chicken. Both were well prepared. loved the gluten free chocolate torte! Staff and chef were knowledgeable and understanding. Provided a gluten free meal. Will return.
