Restaurants near Franciscan Lakeside Lodge

Cora was perfectly attentive. I especially value when servers don’t just bust in while we are talking but also walk by and can tune into what we need, when we need it. Teresa the bartender was engaging, offered a creative twist on our beverage we didn’t end up preferring, and she handled it perfectly. The food was exceptional. Love the new menu. The food was not only DELICIOUS, it was also presented beautifully which also added an extra touch of class. Love the Sawyer and will keep coming back.

Truly a great experience. I was told that the Smoke Door restaurant was outstanding and nowadays that could mean on that given night they got it right. But to be truthful it was all and more than what I was expecting. Food was on point, service also. We did the ten course taster menu chose not to do the drink paring as we were driving 20 oz of alcohol is too much for me. I really liked the atmosphere for such a high end restaurant the service wasn’t stuffy and the staff were very friendly and explained the courses and answered all of our questions. Will definitely return.

We had a wonderful lunch with our friends. We all had the prime rib dip sandwich and is was delicious. The service was excellent too. Gar Woods is one of our favorite places.

Food was amazing! Best crab cake ever! The garlic mushrooms were a perfect pair with the filet. Our server Jack was attentive and funny. We will definitely be back!

The food is consistently outstanding and the staff and owner are just fantastic! Thank you again for a wonderful dining experience. Sue D. Granite Bay, CA
