    Service was excellent, food was tastey, and the Copper Cafe's Christmas ambiance was festive. Prices were typical of a tourist destination but overall, worth it.

    We left before ordering the main course. In our opinion not worth the money. We were a party of 5 and there for our sons 17th Birthday.

    Good for egg & bacon breakfast. Hash browns were a bit undercooked but still served steaming! Bacon cooked a bit too overdone & served cool. Loved the peach preserves. It was crowded & noisy. Maybe will return again!

    Madonna Inn is a classic restaurant, noted for amazing ambience, great food and great service! The special today was Beef Stroganoff which several members of our party enjoyed. There was enough food, that most of us took home doggie bags. Our waiter, Tomas, was especially good -- he was attentive, got all orders correct, and was timely in all his responses to our needs.

    We love this restaurant! They have amazing food. After 5 pm you can order off the steakhouse menu. They don’t have cocktails on the menus but your server will go to the lobby bar for you.
