Best food near me in Woodlake, CA

It was a great experience. We wanted to eat there before they closed their doors for good.

In the busiest day of the year, we decided to endure the crowds at the park and made reservations weeks before arriving. Not knowing what to expect at all, we were pleasantly surprised by a quiet and serene restaurant with beautiful views of the trees. The small windows that accompanied the viewing ones allowed fresh cool breezes to enter. Service was spot on and pleasant. We shared the pulled pork sandwich and summer berry salad. Spending the majority of my life in the south, I hold high standards for such a meal; zero disappointment. It was perfect and I would not change a thing. Tye toasted brioche bun added just the flavor and crunch to turn this sandwich from good to perfection. Now that salad, we couldn’t finish it, yes that big and must have had about $8 worth of the sweetest berries on it. Paired with the feta, candied nuts and balsamic, I could eat that every day. Granted our hopes weren’t very high upon booking, due to being a remote tourist situation, but they knocked it out of the park and were equally surprised at the bill. Expecting it to be “tourist” rates, it wasn’t! Same as we would pay at any spot at home.

Everything from beginning to end was perfect! Incredible service and wonderful food!

They had run out of prime rib and didnt tell us when we confirmed our reservation or mention that it could run out if that's what we planned to order. They didnt tell us until after we ordered and by then it was too late to go somewhere else that had what we wanted. We dissappointedly ordered the rib eye instead and it was very fatty and burnt too crispy. They also were out of the appetizer we wanted, the ahi tuna. It was a Friday night in summer with a convention in town, I feel like the restaurant should have planned better to not run out of several items. Service was fantastic and cocktails were decent. Food was not great though.

The food was good. Our server was excellent, just overworked. We had an enjoyable evening
