The Sawmill Restaurant & Ale House

Its a nice place but they didn't have 2 main menu items. We drove a long way to check it out and were disappointed. Who doesn't have steak ready and available just before dinner time. Thank you but we probably will not be back.

I'll start by saying the positives, the server's are friendly & the atmosphere is nice. We had lunch 2 burgers & 2 BLTs, food took an hour to be served and the burgers were literally cold, the bacon looked burnt & the bread wasn't toasted. It wasn't particularly busy for a Saturday afternoon as there were only 3 other tables aside from ours with 2 servers, hardly enough to have cold food after an hour wait.

EDIT: changed rating for quick response and we appreciate you getting back to us so quickly. Thank you to the owner for addressing the problem!

We arrived at 6:45, order was taken a bit later (food arrived 7:35 (time mix up)), only appetizers appeared in ONE hour. It took so long we asked the server to pack our stuff to-go, and even then took another 15 minutes. We finally left half hungry at 8pm. No one checked on us, and we sat outside while all the other tables got served (even those seated after??). The other server didn’t even know we had more food coming. The food is not cheap too, average $20 per plate for burger or sandwich. Insane work, and I’ve worked in food/service for a few years prior and this would get me yelled at.

Near my house. Food is fresh and so good. The staff are friendly and the beer menu is awesome. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Pets are allowed. A great place to hang in the redwoods.

One of my new favorite places to eat out here. Great food and great service!

Payed 12$ for frings and got literally 4 onion rings. I feel bad for the servers I’d be embarrassed if I had to serve that to a customer. If you’re driving through skip this place and save your money and time. You’ll thank me later.

Such a great little local spot! We wanted to sit outside, and our server Valerie suggested the front porch since the yellow jackets were getting a little feisty — and honestly, it was the perfect spot.

We started with a couple of beers (they’ve got an awesome selection!) and decided to split a Reuben. When we mentioned we were sharing, Val brought it out already split on two plates — so thoughtful! Later, when we got one more drink to share, she even brought it out in two cups. Val is an absolute gem — full of smiles and fun stories, just super easy to chat with.

The Reuben itself was delicious — smoky, tender meat and perfectly toasted bread. Everything hit the spot. Between the great food, the porch vibes, and the awesome service, we’ll definitely be back!

Good food, terrible service. Had to wait 45 minutes for a sandwich and fries. And the fries came out 10 minutes before the sandwich. Clearly our order was not put in, or forgotten about. Will not be going back.

Thoroughly enjoyed this casual burger joint!

Things we loved:
- There is a great outdoor picnic area with lots of space for adults and kids.
- Food was super tasty
- Gluten-free rolls were available
- staff was super kind and helpful

Things we would change if we could:
- a bit more shade outside would be great!
- the dishes came out at really different times for our larger party. Not a huge deal, but it is sometimes awkward if your dish comes out when your neighbor is just about done eating theirs. Good thing we were all good friends so no one cared much.
