This restaurant has the potential to be great, but for some reason continues to disappoint. I visited here with some friends. We got a drink at the bar since we were early for our reservation, the bartender made our drinks and then disappeared. Never saw her again, another group came in and asked us if there was a bartender and we said she left. They waiting about minutes and then left. We then noticed that the wait staff from the restaurant was getting their drinks for their customers and some customers were coming over to the bar to get their own drinks. We went over to the restaurant for our meal and were seated, we were informed that some of the wait staff had called off and they were ve...
We love the relaxed feel of this place – like a comfortable dining room in a friend's home, and it's on the golf course. We could hear the frogs chirping loudly this Spring after all of the rain we've had (finally The staff at the restaurant make it so worth eating here, and we can actually hold a conversation. It is quiet, the food is good, and we can watch the golfers drive floatable balls into the lake. We've been here several times, and will come back for more. One of our favorite waiters is Nick; he knows how to make us feel right at home.
This was an awkward dining experience. I had never been to The Meadows and wanted to try something new for Valentine's Day....apparently so did the restaurant! They are not usually open during the week (weekends only it seems) and as far as I am concerned it showed all over the service. The servers were slow, uncoordinated, and not attentive to many of the diners. We will definitely not return to this restaurant.
Believe the other reviews about the service. We went for Mother's Day brunch. The food was decent but not a large selection but also cheaper than some other brunches with larger selections. Desserts were marginal. The staff was not very friendly at all, very slow and unorganized. Many unhappy customers based on service but most appeared satisfied with food.

The food was good and the hostess was friendly but this was absolutely the worst service I have ever received. One meal came minutes later than the others, we had to flag down our waitress each time we needed something and there was a clear lack of management. Considering the prices I would expect a better-trained staff.
Good food and service, ambiance a bit sterile, could be warmer with for instance some background music like the standards (Sinatra, Holliday, Martin, Bennett). When we first arrived the restaurant had only a few guests and the room was too quiet, like a library and felt a bit awkward.
Sadly, this place just can't seem to get it together. Castro Valley needs more restaurant options and this is sadly the best we have. It's nice rolling down the street to eat here, but driving to San Leandro or Hayward for a better dining experience is nicer.
Nice ambiance and view. Quiet. Reasonable prices and good menu choices. Nice portion sizes. Excellent kale salad. Good wine list. Spare ribs slightly overcooked and fish dish could have been warmer.

nice if your years old; nice dining view; but dated; needs a face lift of some sort!
The food was quite good, but the service was extremely slow.
