The quality of the food was far higher than I was expecting. The dumplings (gnocchi) were transcendent. One of those experiences where you stop eating and laugh out loud because the flavor is so spectacular. The waitress (Vanessa) was fantastic as well. Very knowledgeable about the menu and area in general (she is a local). She helped us pair our meal with some great red blends that matched our taste and overall made the dining experience very pleasurable. Will be coming back to this place in the future and definitely recommend it to anyone staying in Sutter Creek.

Coming to this restaurant, for a comfort food, it's a great idea! Stopping by, know to expect a professional service and casual atmosphere. Do you like to go out with friends for a drink? Take a lover to a lunch date? Have the whole family taste memorable meals? The eats are top notch, and I think you will enjoy.

Great food, wonderful service, beautiful venue. Ignore the 2 pages of "please read" instructions. Everyone in our party of 8 was totally satisfied. The appetizers- Mac & cheese, pork belly, and dumplings - we're all perfect. The salmon was cooked perfectly on a delicious sauce and topped with pickled vegs that made the dish. The jerked chicken was enjoyed by others in our group. So happy that Chef KC has found a new home!

Exceptional. If you haven't eaten here, do it. For apps, our favorites are the sweet potato dumplings, lobster mac and pork belly. For main course, we love the Wagwan pepper steak, Jerk up the skirt steak, pork loin or shrimp and grits (they are all killer, but I don't believe there is a bad choice on the menu). For dessert...anything (again)...but my personal faves are the cornmeal bread pudding or the beignet. If you haven't gone yet, you seriously need to.

This place is truly fantastic all the way around. I had my birthday dinner here and the food was absolutely delicious. One of the best meals ever. The service was excellent. Food came in a timely manner and delivered with a smile! Everyone in this place was so friendly. I loved the fact that my dogs were welcome. The pet menu was not in place yet but what a great excuse to go back and enjoy the laid back rustic atmosphere! A definite must.
