Best Restaurants for Groups in Scotts Valley

Our dining experience at The Plumed Horse was exceptional! We were a party of five and had the 4-course prix fixe menu, which was exquisitely crafted. For dessert, we shared the entire dessert menu, and every bite was a delight. The elegant ambiance and impeccable service made the evening unforgettable. Highly recommend it for a truly special night out!

Our experience was, as always, delightful. From the reservation process online, and calling the host/ess to say we were running 5-10 minutes late through paying our bill, everything was fabulous. Servers and expeditors/support staff are top notch! Personable, knowledgeable, efficient, accurate, and responsive. Even servers we have had before (but were not assigned to us) greeted us warmly and chatted briefly. The food was exceptional. My hubs and I split a special - rotisserie smoked New York steak and the romaine salad. Our grand had the kids rotisserie chicken. Everything was delivered hot and delicious. Bread, minced garlic, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar are always a hit. Water glasses were always topped off and cocktails and wine were perfect. Love the ambiance and various places to sit (outdoors, garden room, bar, dining room, and now it appears there is a bar facing the kitchen. Consistently great.

We made a reservation for 530pm. Out day wine tasting got done early so we made our way back to the resort. Had a dip in the hot tub before heading over to catch the tail end of sunset with the most spectacular view of the bay. The day, so we thought, couldn’t get any better. The bartender was fairly nice but the vibe was really good. Didn’t feel rushed and even took our drinks over to a fire pit on another patio. Really just a great spot especially for being at a hotel. Usually they are stale and boring. Not here, there was even live music.

Had family dinner night at Back 9, the food was delicious and they accommodated my dad’s vegan diet very well!

Perfect experience
