Excellent experience at Dawn Ranch. Service at dinner & breakfast superb with very friendly staff. Bar seating for dinner & both bartenders were fun & attentive, "Guess the Spirit" is a blast. Had bourbon cocktail, G&T & red wine, all A+. Order the tuna tartare & picanye steak w chimichurri sauce, you'll be glad.

Wonderful and unique tasting menu! Beautiful and warm setting. Service was slow to start. Waited 30 mins after reservation time with little attention and no drink offer. Wine selection limited given the area and pours seemed quite small, not 5oz. Overall lovely! The food and experience in general worthwhile.

The Lodge at Dawn Ranch is quite frankly remarkable! Synchronous serving of exquisite morsels that are out of this world. Amazing flavours and combinations. And I particularly loved the chance elements nestled within their cocktail menu! Would heartily recommend.

What a great find tucked away in Guerneville. The food is outstanding, and the service is first class. And the wine pairing is well worth the cost - generous pours of wines you will not find on a typical restaurant wine list. And going outside amongst the trees for dessert was an added bonus. We very much enjoyed our dinner and will be back.

Wonderful ambiance and delicious food! We love coming here for a meal or a drink every time we're in Guerneville. The Dadinho de Tapioca is our favorite thing. They have a fun new drink menu that was quite delightful too. The only thing I wish they had more of on the menu are vegetables. Nonetheless every time we go it's always a win.

Our dinner celebrating my wife's birthday was excellent... one of the best meals we've had. Everything from the staff, to getting sat right in front of the fire, to my wife receiving a menu signed by many of the staff wishing her happy bday, to especially food, was exceptional! Can't recommend this place more for a nice dinner for a special occasion.

We had an amazing evening at the lodge at Dawn Ranch. Eat the sourdough bread, drink with the doctor ordered. The food was Michelin quality and the ambience was nothing but stellar. Nothing like a quiet Sunday evening under the redwoods eating a fabulous dinner. We'll definitely be back.

One word describes our dining experience: Superb! From knowing our names immediately and a personally signed menu for the guest of honor, to elevated service, presentation, and an extraordinary gastronomic experience.

One of the best dining experiences we had. Food quality, presentation, staff, dining room space, light, art. Deserves the Michelin star, and price will go up instantly. Catch while you can.

The place was so so beautiful I was sad we didn't stay at the hotel. But highly recommend the restaurant! Food comes in small portions, but it was incredible. Same goes for the drinks and service. Can't wait to go back.

Ambience is amazing. Just what I wanted for a romantic celebratory dinner. Food seemed a tad salty for my taste and the steak was a bit tough. Service was probably where it fell short as there was at least one instance I know of where my food allergies weren't taken into account.

The food! The service...Jessica was our primary server but everyone we interacted with was AMAZING! We also felt well taken care and the entire team wished us a happy anniversary! Look forward to visiting often!!
