5 stars!!!Oh my goodness! Hands down, the best pasta I have ever tasted. Still at a loss for words. My family and I made reservations as we were staying at Chuchansi resort where this restaurant is located. We were seated right away. The interior is modern and the sunset views were gorgeous. They served us complimentary bread which was fresh and that butter was on point. Service was outstanding and we already cant wait till we go back.

Came in to have brunch with 3 of my family members to only leave with the biggest disappointment with service and quality of the food. For starters, we arrived 45 mins before they close at 2:30 pm. The man at the omelet station was not friendly at all and just stood there until I asked for an omelet. Its quite obvious that I wanted one so I decided to stare at him a little longer and just started picking my items. Not even a "hello" or "What would you like in your omelet?" at least smile? Then as we proceeded to gather at our table, no servers came up and asked us if we'd like anything else to drink other than water. But the waitress that buzzed around all the other tables seems to hit each and everyone of them, especially the table behind us where she stood and held a conversation for the duration of our meal and completely acts like me and my Asian family doesn't EXIST. I made eye contact with 3 waiters in total and none of them cared to come and check up on our table, even when there was a heaping pile up of plates sitting at the very edge of our table. Therefore, I came to the conclusion that no one here wanted any TIPS, neither did they ever want us to come back. So, in hindsight, if you're willing to spend $60 per person for unlimited brunch with the worst service and server-less, this place takes the cake! P.S. The food was mediocre and for them to charge as much as a Vegas buffet but with the smallest amount of food options, was the biggest joke. My French Toast was so hard and dry that it curled up on the edges! I didn't even know it was possible for bread to curl up!

4.5 StarsI got the Clam pasta, it was really good! But this time they didn't flambé the wine enough, so it was strong. The pasta is made fresh, it is extremely soft and al dente!Their caesar salad is amazing, the anchovies in it add a great balance of saltiness.

Loved my seafood ravioli here! The sauce was so delicious and tastefully put together in regular ravioli size, I scarfed the whole thing up! This was our backup plan to visit since we couldn't make reservations at the steakhouse at the casino. I am so glad we got to eat here.We were pleasantly surprised they have great high end whiskey so my husband was happy. The bread they provide is delicious! We ordered the garlic bread on the side and the marinara sauce they bring with it is to die for! I thought the way they brought the garlic bread in thin slices on a plate was kind of weird. They also brought the Caesar salad not chopped and with whole romaine lettuce leaves which I thought was weird again. There wasn't enough dressing to soak up the whole lettuces. The giant meatball appetizer with the sauce is so good- like an Italian grandmothers meatball but a humongous one you could share with your party. Hubby had the New York steak and it was cooked charred with grill marks. So tender and surprisingly good for an Italian restaurant. My son ordered the fettuccine Alfredo and this lacked flavor-it definitely needed a lot more salt. Very large portion. Overall, experience was great for us!

My family and I made reservations for the $59/person Sunday brunch. The service is very quick and friendly, with the servers and bussers tending to whatever you request. The brunch included seafood, prime rib and more traditional breakfast fare, as well as a dessert table. The restaurant was packed but it didn't feel super loud or hectic, we were able to enjoy our meal without feeling like we were crowded or couldn't hear. The highlights were definitely the seafood table and the dessert table. The crab clusters were a generous size with plenty of meat in them (no snow crab here!) and the shrimp were huge. An array of condiments were available, including drawn butter. Oysters and sushi were also available. The hot food table was honestly kind of underwhelming. There were waffles, which were super dense and hard, and omelette station, bacon and sausage, prime rib sliced on the thinner side. I didn't see many sides for the meat carving station like veggies or salad. There were truffle mashed potatoes but I was the only one in my party that cares for truffle flavor. Overall, not the wide variety or quality I would want in a $59 buffet. What saved it was the seafood for me. The dessert table was mostly standard pastries and breads. There were a couple different flavors of mousses. The standout here was the crepe station where you could get a sweet crepe with ice cream on the side and the mini crème brûlées.Overall, a decent breakfast, but the spread, aside from the seafood, was not worth the $59 charge. I don't think I'd return for the buffet, but maybe to try their standard menu.

Hello all, Well finally made it to the brunch at Nativos in Chukchansi Casino and was surprised. As you enter the first sight is the desert bar with multiple choices omg. The second was a small bar area and folks enjoying their mimosa's and other adult beverages. Secondly you see the Seafood station with many delicious choices crab cluster , cold Shrimp w/cocktail sauce , to many to mention and the servings were very generous and the staff at this station were so helpful and friendly. Now the Hot station or omelette station here where the problem began. Serving staff were somewhat confused and not inviting at all short tempered confused people's order ingredients for omelettes also refused to listen to who had what I ended up with someone else's order. I just took it just to stop the madness. The waffles were cold and began to get hard in the serving line it wasn't appealing or appetizing on that side. The wait staff were very attentive and friendly and helpful. I guess I will wait a bit and try a dinner there as me being a retired business owner for almost 30 years I believe they can do better. Stay tuned folks. I believe this is a bad day.

Nativo's, Coarsegold: 7 Jun 2023 (3 of 5)We wanted to have a nice dinner to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Since we've been to Navito's once - and I enjoyed my dish (my other 3 companions didn't like their dinner), we thought we'd give it another try. Nativo's pays homage to Italian cuisine, complimented by views of the mountains. This being a weekday, there were many empty tables. We chose a table by the window, overlooking the mountains. Front of House: The front-of-house attendant was friendly, and greeted us by wishing us a Happy Anniversary. A little bird must have told her. Busser: Arturo was friendly and professional.Server: Savannah was gracious and attentive. Food: The food was mediocre at best. Shrimp Cocktail: The shrimps were large and had a good chew. The sauce was good. For $17.00, this was a satisfying dish. (4 of 5)Bread & Butter: The complimentary sourdough bread had a tangy flavor and a slightly chewy texture and was very well baked. The slightly salty butter complemented the bread. (5 of 5)Chicken Marsala: The chicken should be succulent with mushrooms cooked in a reduced wine sauce. The overall taste should be deep, nutty, with a slightly sweet flavor. This evening's dish was not the best. The chicken was dry and under-seasoned. (2 of 5)Filet of Dover Sole: The presentation looked nice, and I was excited to taste this beautiful dish. Unfortunately, this dish only looked nice - but didn't taste good at all. The description said it comes with oregano and grilled asparagus. I counted 4 pieces of ¼ inch wide asparagus on my plate. The taste left me with disgust. Though the noodles were well managed, the rest of the dish lacked substance. The entire dish was 'bland' with a capital B. I showed the server the number of asparagus on my plate and she offered to bring me some on the side. As you can see from my photo, I managed to finish the extra asparagus but left three quarters of my dinner on the plate. I felt jibbed, having to pay $29.00 for this mediocre dish. (1 of 5)Atmosphere: Clean but the music was loud. The open concept dining room and the sparse number of people made the place echo more than usual. Overall: Nice, clean establishment, with friendly staff and good drinks.

My son and husband took me to Nativo's for the first time tonight for my birthday dinner. We had such an amazing experience. We had a wonderful view from our table, the food was great and our server, Matthew was amazing! My father and ex-husband were also with us and we all we're so happy with the service Matthew provided. He was gracious, attentive, and kind! We will definitely be back and will make sure we request Matthew!

Food was bland. Service was nonexistent. Our server Wendy only took our order and proceeded to literally look towards our table multiple times and instead check on every table she had. We sat here for over an hour for any type of check in to see if we needed anything and we never got help from her again. We had to wave down three other waiters for help and one water refill.
