This place could do a ton better. It has potential. When we walked up it looked closed. They need some sort of open sign. The pricing is pretty high especially for the wine pours which I think is deterring people from coming.

An absolutely amazing restaurant, on par if not better than other local places like the Red Wood Cafe in Modesto or the Market Tavern in Stockton! A Matter of Taste brings unique made from scratch dishes that are expertly crafted, served in a wonderful atmosphere! We had the fish tacos and chicken piccata, with pretzels as an hors d'oeuvre, and had their chocolate cake and blueberry cheesecake for dessert. Don't sleep on their house made desserts which are amazing! Hands down. Best cheesecake I've ever had, and I've tried a lot of cheesecakes! Not only is the food amazing, but it can't be beat at this very reasonable price point! The service was also impeccable, big thanks to our server Dean! My wife and I will be coming back for a fancy date night soon!

Cozy and intimate bistro with great food, wine, and service in Ripon, CA. We had the chef’s specials and recommended wine pairing. My husband enjoyed his Herb Crusted Filet Mignon. Pasta was flavorful and comforting; and the beef was tender. Bread was soft with tasty and salty butter. Malbec was good.
Spaces are limited so reservations are recommended. Tonight was not a busy night but street parking was pretty full. Be prepared to park and walk a little bit to the restaurant. We didn’t park too far but it was chili and windy to walk back to the car.
Also, great service by Taylor!
Thank you!
