We're in the Hall! 

Five years ago TripAdvisor -- the popular website featuring traveler reviews of accommodations, attractions, and eateries around the world -- began presenting it's prestigious Certificate of Excellence award recognizing establishments that consistently earn great TripAdvisor reviews from travelers. And every year since the beginning the Rookery has been so honored. 

This year to celebrate the 5-year anniversary of its Certificate of Excellence program, TripAdvisor presented a special award to honor properties that have won the Certificate of Excellence all five years. Of all the winners of the 2015 certificate, only 9% qualified for the Certificate of Excellence Hall of Fame by winning the award five years running. The Rookery is very proud to be among this elite group of TripAdvisor honorees. 

More importantly, we thank all our guests who made this achievement possible by taking the time to submit such glowing reviews of their dining experience at the Rookery. Just this past week review #120 was published on TripAdvisor, simultaneously elevating us to a magic milestone of sorts: 100 five star reviews!

We are extremely grateful for and humbled by your support. 

  The Music Begins a Week from Sunday  

Our full summer outdoor music calendar is now available online and in print. The fun begins on June 14 with the talented father/son duo from Hayward, Sean and Ian Okamoto, and continues all the way through the end of September.

And this year, for the first time, we're expanding beyond our 16 Sunday afternoon concerts with an additional 10 outdoor performances on Thursday evenings from July 2 to Labor Day. A total of 26 outdoor music events in all, featuring 16 different performers. Including 4 first timers to the Rookery stage, plus 6 returning for just the second time.

Chef Jenny is working up some tasty new treats for our Sunday afternoon patio grill menu. And on Thursday evenings we'll be serving our full new summer dinner menu outdoors (and maybe a little more). It's gonna be a fun-filled summer of fabulous food and marvelous melodies!

Summer Hours Begin in Just Over a Week 

The Rookery will resume our 7 evenings per week dinner schedule, reopening Tuesdays and Wednesdays, beginning June 16. And our Sunday afternoon patio grill menu is back beginning with our first outdoor music performance on June 14.

Don't forget the Rookery also will be featuring live music on Thursday evenings this year (5-8 PM) beginning July 2, with our full dinner menu available outdoors.
