Alex Madonna’s Gold Rush Steak House

The food and cocktails were fantastic

7/1/25: A whimsical experience that I'm glad I didn't miss. Had the shrimp cocktail, prime rib and champagne cake and luckily was there on a Monday when they have swing dancing (8pm to 10pm) so joined in after dinner.

It was an amazing experience! We came for our anniversary and we were greeted with a Happy Anniversary! Service was amazing, food was amazing, ambiance was amazing. We enjoyed everything about the place. Their cakes are great too! Our lamb and ribeye were both cooked as we requested. The cocktails are great also! Kenji made our drinks to perfection as well!

Five stars for ambiance, servers and live music. Only two for food though.. mind you, main dishes looked great but I wasn't hungry so only ordered two small sides, one of which was fingerling potatoes with herbs and truffle oil. Half of the potatoes were so burned they were crisp charred and black = inedible . They also didn't have any taste, although they were supposed to have herbs and truffle oil on them. I did mention this to the server and the manager comped the dish. I hope they'll fix this dish or create a different appetizer instead.

This was an amazing night! The staff went above and beyond for our engagement and celebrating our 3 years before we get married. Andres (believe his name was) was amazing and even got us a slice of iconic pink champagne cake on the house! He was the best and we got to eat while a wedding was going on which was neat since that will be us real soon. The star of the show was the porkchop- seriously THE BEST one I've had in my life! I'm dreaming of it that good! All the other foods we ordered were just as good: chicken rice soup the mushroom fries and I love the herb focaccia bread. Also drinking out of another lovely goblet. This evening was magical and unforgettable (:

Little disappointed this time around. Celebrated our 23 wedding anniversary and decided to have dinner here. Server seemed put off or something by the fact we don't drink alcohol and from there it just went downhill. We had Caesar salad that was drenched in dressing and soggy. Presentation could have been better than a cup plate. Prime rib was too tough for me to cut, so my husband had to do it. There ended up being a huge knot of muscle or something and fat. I had a small area left to eat. Baked potatoes were decent. We also thought our bus boy was much better with service and being able to be present. I don't think we will ever eat here again for dinner. Sad because it was my husband's first time eating there.

The service as always was excellent. The food was delicious. We were celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary. The staff made our visit to the Madonna Inn memorible, and pleasant. Thanks

The food was average. Nothing special. Filet mignon lacked seasoning. It was a big steak and a bit over cooked. I ordered medium rare. The avocado toast was just ok. The halibut was good. The garlic bread was very strong garlic and very greasy. The staff were great and very attentive. It was fun to experience the lavish decorations and I'm glad we went, but not the type of place we'd want to come to again. We had one of our party in a wheelchair and I'm happy that they were able to accommodate our needs and the bathroom was accessible.

Jamie was phenomenal. Her attitude and energy really made the night a great experience. Thanks for another fun time at the Madonna Inn!

Although it was probably once very nice this place is run down. Everything is extremely dusty and dirty. The food was not very good either. Come for the atmosphere and nostalgia but don't look too closely or you'll realize they may never hire cleaners.

amazing food! big portions though so be aware! super iconic venue and I definitely recommend the pink cloud and champagne cake

Beautiful dining room, hot pink leather booths, pink decor and flowers everywhere, feels very fun and special. Great food and deserts. Live band was playing nice music. Fun for couples , families lots of celebrating going on. Try this place

The service was excellent, food perfect, but the cake... out of this world. We had the Champagne cake, WOW. We visited from Santa Cruz and already planning our next trip. All staff were lovely. The Copper Café was also great👍 Thank you for such a nice experience.

While the food was delicious and the place was lovely, our waiter Derek was one of the rudest, most arrogant and condescending servers we’ve ever had anywhere. It almost ruined our entire night which was meant to be a special occasion.

Had a reservation, was sat down right away. Food was great and came out fast. Live band with couples dancing added the the nice atmosphere.
