    This was a lovely spot for a quiet lunch with a friend. The menu was varied and interesting. Portion sizes were just right for lunch. The waitress was friendly and did not rush us. We ate inside as it was a bit chilly to sit outside. The dining room has a nice atmosphere and there is ample room between tables.

    My wife and I went here after a tasting nearby. First time here and will be back. The service was stellar. The food was very tasty. And the backyard patio area was great for us who still avoid eating indoors when possible.

    Great food. Lovely ambience. Enjoyed a quiet brunch on the patio and my entire party agreed that their food was delicious all around. Friendly, attentive service. Returned later in the afternoon for a couple cocktails from the bar and both the drinks and the service were stellar on that occasion as well.

    We were seated at the very far end outside…no heaters, although they did provide blankets - it was still freezing. Ordered the skillet bread at the start of our meal and was told after our dinner was served that they were all out. Waiter could have cared less about serving us.

    From service to food, it's very good, however...My Wife, Mother, and Myself would have enjoyed it much more if there were more VEGAN OPTIONS on the menu! Also, we felt the price was a bit too high for the smallish portions.

    The churros and prime rib were under done and we were placed next to a family with two small kids after them acknowledging it was our anniversary so it was a bit louder than we had hoped for.

    Amazing food and service. We had the ceviche, lamb, and pasta of the day which were all delicious. The lamb was probably one of the best I've had in a long time. Would highly recommend for anyone visiting Calistoga.

    Coming from someone who owns my own customer service business in New York I was very disappointed. 6pm reservation for 2 and left the restaurant before 7pm. Felt very rushed, apps came out and almost done before our drinks came. The waiter was trying to take plates and drinks before we were even finished. The waiter then asked what we wanted for our entrees and we didn’t even get our drinks yet. One of our entrees was steaming hot the other was cold. When the waiter was told he ran, not even a i’m sorry. Then came back with a dessert menu and said it’s on the chef, but we were done with the whole experience at that point. Then to top it off food was split on my purse. When the bill came, not even a drink was taken off for our horrible experience.  Hope Sam’s Social Club can learn from these mistakes and make the experience better for new customers.

    Amazing dinner! Just a little chilly outside. Don’t get seating along the building- the benches with cushions are way higher than the tables so it’s uncomfortable. We ended up in the middle of the patio and it was much better. Inside by the fireplace is quite lovely. The service is outstanding! If you love octopus, you definitely want to get it there. My salmon was cooked to perfection as was my husband’s lamb shank. We will definitely come back!
