Charming, whimsical and simply Devine. This beautiful little restaurant sprinkles magic on your ordinary day and delight in your mouth. We absolutely loved our dining experience! Each guest is given a precious little fairy crown it wear they are free to take with them. I particularly loved the secure and open minded fathers and boyfriends wearing theirs along with their daughters and girlfriends. Made me smile. But what also surprised me was just how AMAZING the food was! Oh. My. Gaaawsh. I was not expecting it to be that good. You can tell they take their culinary artistry seriously and hold a high standard for what they let leave their kitchen. And I have to say, every single member of the staff we met or observed was hard working, friendly, kept busy, helpful and polite. Even their restrooms were adorable. We celebrated three birthdays today and it was the absolute perfect choice. Can’t wait to go back.

What a unique, FUN experience! Came here for my husbands birthday for the first time and was surprised to be handed a light up flower crown- for free! ALL the workers here are suspiciously good looking, polite, and attentive. <3 I LOVE the vibes here especially being a renfair goer. Even the bathrooms are decorated and themed! I had the chicken pie which was sooo good. I was nervous because you never know how it will turn out but I ate every bite! My Husband had a soft steak and my fatherinlaw had the scallops which he said were cooked perfectly! I love the high dining options but I wish they would expand the menu to a couple more affordable items, more pies perhaps? Absolute gem of a restaurant!

Truly magical! I’ve come here once before and this was my second time. The atmosphere is great the moment you walk in the door the service is exceptional! The host led us to our table and we were helped right away. It is dark in here as the lighting fits the mood of a celtic tavern so take that into consideration. The food is always so fresh and delicious. They are very allergy accommodating which I love! It can be a bit tight so if you are a wheelchair user I’d definetly call ahead so they can accommodate. I know they definetly do

The most fun restaurant I’ve ever been to. Truly a unique experience that me and my boyfriend go back to time and time again. Revisited placerville just to have this meal!! The atmosphere really makes it though. Good food, unbeatable service.

This place absolutely rocks. The staff are overwhelmingly kind, enthusiastic, entertaining and in-theme!
The whole restaurant is incredible. You do not need to be into Hobbits, Wizards, Elves and Fairies to appreciate this gem…but if you are, holy smokes you’re going to LOVE it.
11/10. Tell your friends.

I loved this place. My boyfriend took me here for a date night and it was absolutely beautiful. The service was great, the food was fantastic. I loved the mead drinks we got, and both our dinners were delicious.

What an enchanting experience! I came with a group of sometimes fussy seniors who were delighted with the faerie crowns we received and beautiful edible flowers that graced our meals. The whiskey shrimp was a hit with 4 of us, one of us said the pasty was great and the two of us who had crepes were very pleased. My friend loved the lobster bisque too. The salads were fresh and lovely. Their honey mustard vinaigrette was perfect. I highly recommend for a relaxed and special dining experience.

Such a fun experience. Staff was beyond friendly and the food was amazing. I’ve never tried mead but the flight was a perfect introduction to it. Simply a pleasure, would definitely recommend!

We came here for the experience. The place looks whimsical and enchanting. Decor is so on point. Our teens loved light up flower head crowns. Over all atmosphere was lovely. What ruined the experience was the stale smell that hits you as soon as you come in. It’s just so uninviting.
Food was bland and didn’t not look appealing. Short ribs were just ok. Macadamia crusted scallops were cold and nuts smelled old. Pot pie was delicious though. Over all price tag was not worth the product. Our server was so high on something, kept on forgetting things or bringing things we didn’t ask for. At least he was happy.

Summary:
A fun and unique concept with decent food and whimsical touches, but the service, layout, and pricing need serious improvement. Go after dark if you’re curious, but manage your expectations.
Pros:
1) Creative and whimsical fairy theme.
2) Guests receive glowing flower crown headpieces — a fun touch that added to the experience, especially for the girls in our group.
3) Food was flavorful and nicely presented.
4) The drink flights were fine — not amazing, but enjoyable enough. Mead was ok, had better ones at the Faire.
5) The atmosphere feels more magical after dark.
Cons:
1) Cramped seating: We were placed at a small table near the decorative tree, even though several booths sat empty. We were told they were “reserved,” but no one used them the entire time. Even a group of five with a stroller was squeezed into a similar table. Mind you, booked a reservation.
2) Poor service: Our waitress never checked on us. We had to flag down other staff just to get refills or order dessert.
3) Rushed ending: Before we even started our dessert, the waitress finally showed up — only to drop off the check and ask that we pay it before she went on her lunch break.
4) Staff attitude: Many of the staff didn’t smile or engage with guests. Some seemed more focused on their appearance than providing a good experience.
5) Daytime atmosphere: In bright daylight, the space loses its intended charm and looks more like a regular bar. Not ideal if you’re bringing children.
6) Overpriced: The food and drinks don’t justify the cost when paired with inattentive service and cramped seating.
