“Great burgers“

“Sandwiches and wine was great! Big menu and wonderful seating inside and outside.“

“Don't let the Mini Mart/gas station fool you, the eating area is behind the counter. We were pleasantly surprised at the delicious BBQ. We ordered the Texas Trinity which included brisket, ribs, and sausage. It came with 2 sides, coleslaw and baked beans along with 4 slices of bread, 2 spears of pickles, pickled red onions and bbq sauce on the side. It was so tender, juicy and flavorful which wasn't drowned in bbq sauce. This is our go-to bbq when we drive up from the Bay Area. The staff were also very friendly.“

“We were in Murphy’s yesterday and a good friend that is very knowledgeable about wine and also a grower told us to stop and meet Gary and Sue and have a tasting. Unfortunately Gary or Sue was not available(probably crushing this years grapes to make more spectacular wine). However we met Jim and he treated us like long time friends, talked about the wines and very sociable. Every wine tasted was suburb and we ended up taking 6 bottles home to enjoy later. When we are back in the area we will definitely stop back in and hopefully meet Gary and Sue“

“Food is great and management is the best… Much love guyz“

“Stopped here on our way home after being recommended to us from the staff at Mia’s Pizza. Our Takeaway from this entire weekend was how this community supports each other! We enjoyed the huevos rancheros with chorizo. Perfect Brunch! Delicious food, friendly service, charming little town. 10/10!“

“Our breakfast was amazing All was great tasting and waitress made us feel at home 😋👍“

“I use the delivery which I believe uses door dash. The only thing I don’t like is the $5 delivery fee. They don’t do the delivery themselves so it seems superfluous. They should eliminate the fee and let us just tip the driver instead of tipping on top of the fee as well. Everything else is great otherwise.“

“V's food never disappoints! Their truffle fries, the calamari and shrimp appetizer, the salads - all super fresh and tasty along with a fantabulous wine list....❤️🍷Finish up with their "home-made" ice cream....yummm....and our server Maddie made it all special with great service and a smile! We will always come back!!!❤️“

“Cover's is my favorite spot to visit every time we come to Soulsbyville. Their staff, food, and apple sodas are of the highest quality.

It's a great place for families. I highly recommend taking any little ones on the train ride. We always get a apple side in an ice cold mug and a chicken pot pie to-go.

If there is any local spot to support, this is it!“

“Jeff was absolutely fantastic! He made our first wine tasting experience at Ironstone memorable. We always value a sommelier who is highly knowledgeable in the wines they serve. He was it. We’re avid wine enthusiasts and members of other wineries. We are now considering adding a fifth. We’ll be back Ironstone! We hope Jeff is available to make our experience special again. One last thing… make more cookies!“

“Had a small wedding 25 people. Ordered chicken and beef enchilada , and taco bar. Was outstanding and with plenty of the fixings. Major Amount of food for about $16 plate.“

“Great food, generous portions! Locals love this hole-in-the-wall joint so if you come during busy hours you gotta wait as it's made to order. Small family business and owners are kind and work as fast as they can to prepare your food. I always leave a tip in the jar when picking up my take-out just to show appreciation and bc it feels good!“

“I love this place I eat lunch here at least 3 times a week and it is always amazing. Best food in town and staff is very friendly.“

“Found this place by accident, and it was not disappointing. Amazing food, friendly service, my only problem is they’re not open 24hrs lol the food is that good!“

“Ate here for the first time last night. My husband and I arrived just after they opened at 3:00 with another couple. This was the first time the four of us had dined here. We were not disappointed, as we heard good things about this place. Great service at the fall bar when my husband arrived before our friends, and had a couple of drinks as we waited. We were pleasantly chatted up with the bartender and we felt very welcome. The humble atmosphere was "old school", as far as lay-out and decor. As a Boomer, this place reminded me of family restaurants we had grown up with during my growing-up years in the 60's and 70's that we loved dining at. We were all seated in a deep, comfy booth. The dining room was beginning to fill up quickly by 4pm, and you'll notice the dining room is very "tight" and tables close together, so you must be somewhat agile to weave through tight spaces. The staff is plentiful and they are bustling. We each chose from the Early Bird menu (selected dishes at the deep discount of two meals for $29.99 from 3:00-6:00pm) which starts out with good bread and fondue, delicious soup or salad; the entrees are flavorful and well prepared, desserts included. Service was prompt, attentive and friendly. By 5:00 this dining room was full and because it is family oriented and tables closely spaced, be prepared for a noisy background, but somehow this brings a happy sound to add to the mix. Good date-place, but light conversation probably should be the topics of choice. My hearing is keen, but here, deep meaningful conversation should wait until you get back into the car. Bathroom facilities should probably get an update. But, other than that, great meals, friendly service, lots of attentive staff.“

“always fabulous food and fun fabulous atmosphere and people!!“

“Being a Concierge at a local Resort. I would recommend my guest to The Sonora Thai Cuisine!“

“Great wine and great prople“

“Foothills Café in Sonora is one of those places that instantly makes you feel welcome the moment you walk in. From the cozy atmosphere to the friendly staff, it’s the kind of café that feels like a local favorite for a reason. Whether you’re stopping by for breakfast, lunch, or just a cup of coffee, Foothills Café delivers comfort, quality, and great service every time.

The food is absolutely delicious and clearly made with care. Their breakfast options are especially standout—fresh, filling, and full of flavor. Everything tastes homemade, from the perfectly cooked eggs to the crispy potatoes and fluffy pancakes. You can tell they focus on quality ingredients and generous portions, so you always leave satisfied. Lunch is just as good, with comforting classics and daily specials that keep things interesting and make you want to come back to try more.

The coffee deserves its own praise. It’s smooth, rich, and exactly what you want from a neighborhood café. Whether you’re grabbing a quick cup to-go or sitting down to relax, it’s the perfect companion to your meal. Pair it with one of their baked goods and you’re set.

What really sets Foothills Café apart, though, is the service. The staff is incredibly kind, attentive, and welcoming. They genuinely make you feel like a regular, even if it’s your first visit. There’s a warm, community vibe here that makes the experience feel personal rather than rushed.

Overall, Foothills Café is a gem in Sonora. It’s the perfect spot for a casual meal, a friendly meet-up, or a quiet moment with good food and coffee. If you’re looking for a place with great flavors, fair prices, and a welcoming atmosphere, this café is a must-visit. Highly recommend!“

“Great food and professional service.“

“We had a party of 18 ppl and we called last minute to see if they could accommodate us and they happily did so. We had such a great time and the wines were very nice. Nick was our server and he was very knowledgeable about the wines as well as funny; he gave us a good time. The atmosphere was also very clean, modern, and beautiful which made it even more enjoyable. Plus it was a chilly day but their patio heaters along with the wine kept us nice and warm.“

“We stopped in for lunch and were amazed by the staff and food. Everything was awesome from the drinks to the in house made ranch dressing. The avocado fries? OMG Delicious! I had The Feast a prime rib sandwich with at least half pound of meat and my daughter had the Prime Rib dip and my wife had the Chili Burger all beyond delicious. We are definitely coming back. We talked on the way home and want to try everything on the menu. Most everything is made in house. Thank you for an amazing experience and awesome food!!!“

“I wanted a good sandwich; I don't cook well. I went to Crusco's and had a very tasty French Dip sandwich; the waitresses were polite and I had a pleasant experience all by myself. Thanks“

“Intimate setting. Nice syrah“

“Very nice venue and service was excellent!“

“The Gravy! Loaded Chuck everytime. Don't miss out on this Gem. Family run, great food, great service. ☝“

“Decent Mexican food served super fast by friendly and accommodating staff. The entire family seems to help out. A lot of fixings available to add zest, tang or saltiness to your meal. The place is unassuming, and most people get takeout - nothing wrong with that.“

“Great food best burgers in the area! Always a great time“

“Good service and the food is great“

“Best Mexican food I’ve had in a very long time! The salsa is also delicious!!“

“Great place for a beer, burger, and more! For me the “more” part was running into an old friend from high school.“

“We had burgers one night, and pizza the next. We really enjoyed our meals both nights. The service was great the first night, but the second night, I think they had a trainee and the trainee definitely needed training especially in the manner in which she interacted with people. But all in all this is a great spot and the food is very good. Would come back again.“

“We loved every single bite! Amazing!!!“

“This is my boyfriends absolute favorite Chinese food. Last night we dined in and the family greeted us as family as they always do. We were seated promptly and provided menus. We usually get the same thing when we go - just change up the apps. Last night as the weather was cold and rainy, we ordered some Egg Flower Soup. It was delicious! We also ordered some egg rolls & pot stickers. The restaurant was empty when we went in as it was close to closing time. There is a old saloon vibe in here, I do love that they kept all the old brands on the walls.
For our main course we got the SPK plates which are their specials plates that includes BBQ Pork Fried Rice, Chow Mein, Sweet & Sour Pork & Fried Prawns.
They all have a great flavor and the owners are so kind. We love this place!“
