This bright wooden restaurant is one of the best in the region. Refined Mediterranean and French cuisine and a good wine list. The pizzas are known throughout the region, and the menu changes according to the seasons. A real delight, with emphasis on quality products.

The menu was short, but everything was good. Our server was marginal at best. She made several mistakes through the meal and didn't really seem like she was having a very good time. Dunsmuir is a quaint town and the cafe is in a cute part.

Delicious dinner in Dunsmuir! First time in the town on our way to Bend and we stopped for dinner here. Got the house made fettuccine pasta Bolognese and I requested a vegetarian pasta and the chef made a Cacio e Pepe. It was very good! Not huge portions but filling enough, and the bread was delicious. Dessert and appetizer was great too.

Very friendly and attentive staff, willing to go out of their way for our group of 13 people. Food was excellent, though a bit pricey. Atmosphere was pleasant, clean, somewhat noisy when the restaurant is full.

What a shame and what a loss. This once great little restaurant is now just another ho-hum hole in the wall.
We have eaten in this restaurant dozens of times and have left positive reviews. But after recent shake-ups including the dismissal of the executive chef and most of the wait staff, we can no longer recommend Cafe Maddalena to anybody.
We understand staffing changes happen, and there are good reasons for it we are sure. But there is no excuse for accepting poor wait service and at best mediocre food. There's even less excuse for accepting snotty attitude from the owners
Whatever you do, do not offer suggestions or feedback about how things could be better here, or you will receive an angry, childish lecture from the owner at your table in front of all the other patrons, before your food arrives. It felt like a teenage breakup scene.
Like I said, what a shame and what a loss. Cafe Maddalena will be gone in a year, or under new ownership.

Waited over 1 hr for food. Portions very small.
