This place was an amazing stop today while wine tasting. It’s often hard to find good food in these areas but this place had really delicious fresh options and the service is also fantastic. Highly recommend!

A surprising spot in Somerset, the food is very good and lots of it is locally sourced. The food was very good. We enjoyed the Rib-eye and the flank steak with chimichurri as well as the lobster bisque and sausage stuffed mushrooms. Definitely worth stopping in when you are in El Dorado County!

Why didn’t I come here sooner? The food was delicious perfection in decent sized portions. The lamb was so good I wanted to eat every bite, garden grown herbs freshly cut topped several chops with roasted potatoes and asparagus. The fish tacos were huge and stuffed full, and the fries were crispy. The lobster bisque was rich and creamy and even the side salad was fresh, full of delicious veggies. And let’s not forget the fresh baked bread and house made butters, cinnamon and nutmeg in one and garlic, Parmesan and sun dried tomatoes in the other. I haven’t even gotten to the dessert yet.
An excellent selection of beers and ciders along with more than a few lovely wines.
Piper our waitress was attentive, greeted everyone at the door and was just as nice as could be. She greeted customers she knew by name and remembered their drink preferences. She also managed to check on everyone regularly which was impressive considering she seemed to be the only waitress.
I’m not really sure if I should leave such a good review, it might be hard to get a table next time I go. Lol If you live anywhere nearby and haven’t checked this restaurant out you are missing a wonderful meal and a lovely place.

Great spot to have lunch! Although they seemed pretty short staffed when we were there, Crystal did an amazing job taking care of everyone in the place and kept a really positive attitude despite being stretched really thin. The wait time was a little extended but we had delicious drinks and lovely conversation to lean into during that time. Thanks for a great lunch! We will definitely be back!

This bistro has great food! I started with a garden salad that contained an assortment of crisp greens and vegetables with their white balsamic vinaigrette. It was very nourishing.
Dinner was the Mustard-Glazed Salmon, which was a large, perfectly cooked filet with savory dijon. There was a plentiful assortment of vegetables on top and creamy polenta below. Each forkful was a delight.
Service is pleasant and efficient. There are good local wines available by glass and bottle. This will be a regular on my rotation.

Great little restaurant in the middle of the hill country. A great gem! Outdoor seating isn’t the most relaxing atmosphere because it’s right on the road and parking lot, but the inside looked really nice and artistic. The food was great especially the fried Brussels sprouts! Even though there was only 1 waitress she was a sweetheart and did her best to service everyone as it did get busy by 6pm! And they have to stop taking customers once it gets too busy, so go early or make reservations as I saw a few parties of people had to get turned away to max capacity. Definitely will go again!

My wife and i ordered the burgers and we were amazed by their size! Well worth the price. The beer was fantastic coming from Amador brewing Co. Waitress was awesome and polite. This place is a hidden gem in the moutains the drive is long to get there though. If you come here be prepared to eat hearty as the portion sizes here are no joke! Dessert was fantastic!

What is a cook like this doing on the little mountain crossroads? Ribeye French Dip had the meat that was not just buttery tender, but also the tastiest beef I had in about 10 years. Sweet potato fries were perfectly salted & crisp. Lemonade was awesome too, *finally* a place that doesn’t over-sweeten lemonade! The only thing that left something to desire is French press coffee, which tasted a little weak and metalic (kind of the grinder burn flavor, maybe). Everything else was worth a fine dining five star restaurant in any fancy destination.

Lisa, the owner & her daughter Piper are the greatest! We live in Somerset & to have such a wonderful restaurant so close is awesome! I can’t say enough about how good the food is. My husband & I went there on Valentines Day! They had some specials that sounded amazing! I had a sea bass in a tomato & artichoke sauce that was so delicious! Worth every penny! We have brought our friends there & they love it too! Piper makes ordering so easy & is so friendly! Always consistently upbeat & sweet! I know it’s not easy to run a restaurant but Lisa & Piper do a fantastic job! Thank you to all of you who work there!
