“At last, the gorgeous 1891 Victorian has a restaurant worthy of its dining rooms.”
– Aleta Watson, San Jose Mercury News, May 2007
The renowned mansion Trevese occupies was originally owned by Mary Coggeshall and constructed in 1891 by J.J. Hill. It is one of few Queen Anne-style Victorians still standing in the Bay Area. In 1977 the Chart House refurbished the mansion to a restaurant and closed its doors thirty years later. The newly renovated interior embraces the original integrity with added modern concepts. The pristine and bright design on the outside contrasts perfectly with a modern interior warmed by soft lighting and the colors of chocolate, cream and sage. The design is much like the menu; classic themes reinterpreted with modern American craftsmanship.
