Good food starts close to home.

We feel incredibly lucky to work with so many wonderful local farmers, growers, fishermen, and producers who bring the best of Mendocino County to our tables.

From the fresh flowers that brighten our dining room to the seasonal vegetables on our plates, locally caught seafood, and thoughtfully raised meats, every detail reflects the incredible community around us.

A special thank you to some of the amazing local businesses we have the pleasure of working with, including Nye Ranch Caymin Ackerman/Big Mesa Farm-Comptche EarthSpoke Farms Green Rainbow Farm Roundmans Smokehouse Anthony Ferrari Aum Farm, Caito Fisheries, and Vande Rose Farms.

We’re proud to support the people who grow, harvest, and produce so much of what makes dining on the Mendocino Coast special.

Fresh, seasonal, and rooted in our community. That’s what we love to share with you.

One of the many things we love about Mendocino? Having Anderson Valley w**e country just a beautiful drive away.

Winding roads, rolling vineyards, and some truly incredible local w**eries right in our backyard. We’re lucky to be surrounded by such talented w**emakers, and even luckier to share their w**es with you.

Our extensive w**e list celebrates some of our favorite local producers alongside selections from beyond the region, with something special to complement every meal.

Whether you’re spending the day exploring Anderson Valley or settling in for dinner on the coast, there’s always a good reason to raise a glass.

Come discover a new favorite with us. 🍷

A little taste of fall for your favorite dining companion. 🎃

Pumpkin Pie is the newest addition to our Pups on the Patio menu, made just for four-legged guests to enjoy while you settle in for lunch or dinner in the garden.

Because they deserve a seasonal treat, too.

A slow stroll around town, taking in the beauty of Mendocino, an unhurried lunch in the garden, and nowhere you need to be next.

Then, back to the heart of it all to unwind, linger, and let the day unfold at its own pace.

You can find Baxter Wines on our list, including the Oppenlander, as well as others, including Phil’s Fathers and Daughters w**es as well. Did you know he makes those as well. Also wonderful!

Our '2023 Valenti' and '2022 Oppenlander' vineyard w**es rated as 'Superior' today 😃 in a great deep dive article by Patrick Comiskey looking at the special attributes of the Mendocino Ridge appellation for acclaimed critic Jancis Robinson's West of the West series. Baxter Winery owner / w**emaker Phillip spoke of the special ripening factors of the vineyards alongside his Mendo ridge compatriots. For sure worth a read on JancisRobinson.com to learn about the area our w**ery sits in! Anderson Valley Winegrowers Association Mendocino Winegrowers, Inc.
