“In October, I was staying at an Airbnb nearby and went here for lunch and the food is delicious! The salads and sandwiches are tasty and very fresh. The peach pie was ammmmazing! They have pies in 2 sizes regular $25 and small $10. They also have delicious jams. I bought an apricot preserve for $10. That was also very good.The restaurant has benches around the establishment outside, or there is indoor seating. It does get busy and frequently has a line, but the food is worth it.Vegetarian options: Very tasty salads”

South Pine Cafe-Grass Valley 102 Richardson St, Grass Valley Brunch • $$
102 Richardson St, Grass Valley

“As a treat, my husband and I hit up SPC every other month or so for brunch. We get there early-ish and sit at the bar. My usual is either the lobster or mushroom Benedict with a side of fruit (worth the upcharge IMO) and the "green drink" while my hubby prefers the chorizo Benedict and a red beer.The music is usually good, as is the service. The menu offers a wide variety of entrees made with fresh ingredients. I have to avoid gluten and wish they had a bread substitute available so I could have their Olallieberry French toast (I avoid the Benedict's English muffin). The employees appear to be happy here, which is refreshing. Fun mimosa flavors, a coffee bar, and fresh-squeezed juice options available. It was $70 for the both of us (including tip), but like I said - it's a treat and we want to support this awesome business! ☕ ?”

Overall a real good dining experience, I personally went alone and was still paid attention to by staff (something that isnt normal in most places when I'm alone)The only complaint I have is about the price but honestly. When your pizza and fries are this good, it's worth it.”

If you’re going to eat here definitely order take out and pick up at the back door. Food is mediocre at best. Standard ingredients from smart and final but edible nonetheless.”

KAIDO Japanese Restaurant 207 W Main St, Grass Valley Japanese • $$$
207 W Main St, Grass Valley

“Seriously wonderful restaurant, I generally come here once a month, I would go more often if I could afford it. Compared to other sushi restaurants in the area they have a much more traditional style, which is to say they are often very light on the sauce and toppings. I highly recommend the salmon belly sashimi, it's absolutely delectable.Parking: Depending on the time of day/day of the week it can be difficult to find parking, downtown Grass Valley kind of just has that problem.”

“I am a born and raised native to Nevada County and I’m sad to say that it wasn’t until I was an adult that I finally had the chance to try Tuscany Gardens. If I’m being honest, I never knew they existed. It’s now one of my go to restaurants that I frequent. They have the most delicious dishes. My favorites are the pesto chicken grilled sandwich, the sun-dried tomato pesto chicken sandwich, love love love their breadsticks! I could almost eat just those as my meal they are so delicious and always fresh out of the oven. Another favorite of mine is their mushroom soup! It is so flavorful and if I know they have it I’ll make a special trip just for that?.Roxy is the owner/manager and has the best energy. She’s always smiling and making friendly conversation.I also love that they have salads to grab. This is huge for me because I eat my lunch in my car on the go and need something quick/healthy/filling.Definitely recommend giving them a try if you have not yet!”
