1850 Restaurant

First and foremost Mariposa does a great job at not only being my favorite little mountain town, but it also has incredible food. 1850 is no exception. From the delicious blackberry muddled Mocktail mule to the delicious hazy my guy got and just wait, the food. The restaurant itself is not small, but not big. I say that in a good way. You can hear the multitude of conversations taking place between what appeared to be some locals, but a lot of tourists. Being a town that's directly en route to your trip to Yosemite, I HIGHLY suggest this be one of your foodie spots. The staff is insanely friendly. Our waitress was nice and did a great job not making me feel 'extra' when I asked for the burger to be cut, she went above and beyond and had both our dinners split into 2. She understood our assignment ( order different things so they can be split and tasted by both my boyfriend and myself.)So, the food. When I say, those Ahi Tuna Nachos were very flavorful, I mean it. If wasabi isn't your thing, don't get it. If it is, yum yum. We ordered the Hot Shot burger with the upgraded garlic fries. The only 'negative' I can say about the entire meal is the burger did have a lot going on (in the best way) and maybe that's why it stood out more, but the patty, noticeably great quality, lacked salt. I'm not an add salt to everything kind of girl but I believe this would have taken it over the top if it had salt and pepper more blended into the patty. Tip: if you like a kick, order this. If you can't handle spice, opt-out. And if you love garlic, spend the extra change and upgrade those fries to the garlic. You won't regret it. Lastly, the surf and turf. The New York was cooked beautifully, as was the shrimp. Delicious. But what stole the show? The rosemary cream sauce that topped the steak. One of the best sauces I've ever had. It was such a great asset to the steak. Also, the mashed potatoes were full of flavor, creamy, and with some of that rosemary sauce, oh lord. Thank you 1850 for giving us an amazing anniversary weekend getaway meal!

I was here with a work group for dinner this week. We took up the outside patio. I was concerned about dining outside at night on a patio in November, but the weather was perfect, and the outdoor heaters kept the space very comfortable. Lighting was fairly dim, but added to the atmosphere. Parking was limited, but I found a spot without much trouble.I ordered the salmon with brown rice and zucchini. The salmon was cooked perfectly and was wonderfully seasoned. There was a green tzatziki sauce on the salmon that had a very complex flavor--a mix of pesto, lemon, and something else. I kept thinking I tasted pine or juniper, but suspect it was just a combination of flavors. While it wasn't a bad flavor, the confusing or overly complex flavor of it did detract from the enjoyability of the perfectly cooked salmon. The zucchini was served in large wedges. They were al dente and also perfectly seasoned. The brown rice was a bit dry--but typical for most brown rice dishes, and was mildly seasoned. Portions were good. Because we were with a large group and our table was served last, we did have to wait a while for everything. I'm not holding this against the restaurant--it is hard to coordinate multiple tables at once, and they did check in with us many times to refill drinks and make sure we didn't feel abandoned. Service was good overall. At this point in time, appetizers cost between $10 and $20, and meals range from low $20's to mid/high $40's. It is a bit more than I usually spend on a meal, but everyone I spoke to, whether they ordered a burger and fries, a steak salad, the salmon or the tri tip, all enjoyed their meals. If you're looking for a hearty meal that is more than fast food, and you're looking for something with bold flavors, check this place out!

The salmon was very delicious and the service there was pretty good! Enjoyed the Sierra ciders!!

Recommended this place by a friend while we were staying close by to Yosemite. This was such a surprise find! Loved their burgers and garlic fries. Their chicken wings were also delicious. Def coming back if ever in Yosemite service was kind of slow though since they only had 1-2 people attending tables

Great selection of their own brews. Something for everyone's taste. We stopped as we got into town, basically for a beer but the menu looked really good so we ordered the ahi tacos. AMAZING. Been back twice this week to try more of the beers. Going to stop for dinner before we leave. Friendly fast service and if you sit outdoors you get the amazing Mountain View.

18th October 2024 review- Good restaurant for a dinner when in Mariposa We were on our way to Yosemite accommodations and decided to stop here for a biteThere was a little wait, but we used the time to check out the beautiful cars - there was a car show (which we missed :(The beer flights were good, our chicken sandwich was juicy and the kids enjoyed their Mac & Cheese

This was the perfect way to close out our wonderful stay in Mariposa. The burger was absolutely delicious and the service is efficient. You go in, place and order, take your number, pick a table and enjoy. My drink was refreshing. It is good for families and it is casual.

1850 is something you can enjoy and worth a stop when you visit Mariposa. They have a decent menu and a good range of beers. The vibe of the restaurant/brewery is very cabin like. They have a lot of seating indoor and outdoor. They have a small bar area outside the patio with plenty of seating. They do not come out and serve you menus. You need to get a menu from the inside and order inside when you're ready. Also, they have a self server water station near the restrooms. The service was great outside. Host Paige was really great about getting what we needed and asked for. She was very nice and checked in on us. The initial hostes in the front desk must have been having an off day. She was a little salty towards my partner when she came in to order, and then when my partner asked for water, she was upset and told her it's self-serve. We did not let it affect our experience and enjoyed our food. The food was pretty good. I got the shroom burger, and it was pretty tasty. The meat could have had more seasoning, but the flavor from the sauce and mushrooms was on point. Also... it was perfectly cooked med rare. The wings were a little dry , and the flavor of the sauce was good, but I would add more sauce to balance the dryness of the chicken. That usually happens when you fry too long. I also had their berry stout.... it was delicious!!!! Ill definitely be back to get a crowler of it. My girlfriend for the turkey Sammie, and it was pretty dang good along with the sweet potato fries. The garlic on one of our friends' fries had a bit of a powder texture to it... but they loved their burger, and the last thing we got was I believe the salmon patties ... those were so good!!! The sauce had some great flavors. Overall we will be back, I may try the Buffalo sauce next time on the wings, and I'll definitely be back for more of that stout.

Great food and never had a bad experience I've eaten here multiple times and look forward to eating here again It's always great to be able to sit down with friends and family and reconnect over a good meal and this is the place to do it Now this restaurant does get busy sometimes, but you can always walk the downtown area while you wait for a tableOne of my favorite restaurants in Mariposa

Great food, awesome staff and great drinks. Oh and took some swag home too. See you guys soon!
