25 Best American Restaurants near Jenner

“I have been going to River’s end restaurant for almost two decades and have always loved the experience. This time, I decided to stay a few days at the new Home collection lodging and the getaway was completely remarkable. I will make sure to come back more often in order to unplug and relax completely in this paradisiacal getaway.“

“We came across this place by chance and decided to spend the night. Room was amazing and super comfortable. One of the cleanest rooms we have ever stayed in. We also ate at the bar & grill and it was yummy as well. We will for sure be back soon! Everyone there was super friendly!“

“A tiny gem of a restaurant tucked away in Bodega Bay. Our very pleasant hostess Julia was cognizant of our dietary needs and offered excellent entree alternatives. Their bread pudding is to die for. Turned out to be a very pleasant, albeit impromptu Easter experience for us.“

“Our experience was absolutely incredible. Letisha helped setup the perfect itinerary a month before our stay and was spot on! She was fantastic to work with and made our stay special. Everyone on staff was professional and held their service to the highest standards. The property, rooms, and dining were top notch. I would recommend Farmhouse Inn to anyone.Make sure to utilize the free wine tastings you get as being a guest of Farmhouse inn. In addition, they will arrange a driver for dinners in Healdsburg so you can focus on the experience. Make sure to give a tip!“

“This place is always amazing in service and food. Everything is so good and the service is exceptional. They really care for customers and it's such an inviting place and feel. The guernville omelet is amazing and the recommendation to try the chorizo just made it so much better. Always will recommend this gem!! Go if you like being happy.“

“When you pull up and look at the building, it's a bit of a head-scratcher. It's very non-de script, with a couple apartments as part of it. The small restaurant is upstairs, and Larry, the owner, is as nice as can be. Larry is hard to miss -- he's the 7' tall guy in the room. :-) I went for prime rib night and both the food and drinks were great. It's a pleasant little space with a dedicated bar on one side.“

“This hotel had everything we needed for a stay in wine country. We loved that it was right on the river with beautiful views. The bar was lovely and they had very nice food at the restaurant. The only knock I would say was the food service was really slow.“

“Took a trip to Bodega Bay with my girlfriend for the weekend, and we stumbled across this little gem! The food here was EXCELLENT: the Crab Cakes we both agreed were the best we've ever had, I got the Clam Chowder which was delicious but could've been served a bit warmer, the Grilled Oysters were so fresh and delicious, and my girlfriend really enjoyed the Wood Fired Grilled Mushrooms and the Winter Salad. The wine was also good but we came here for the food! The staff was very friendly and attentive throughout our meal and we loved our outdoor seating overlooking Bodega Bay. Loved this place, it was a great surprise to start our trip! Have been recommending this restaurant to my friends n family and also you, yelp user!“

“We have never been to this area before and didn't know of any restaurants. Thank God my daughter found this restaurant on Google. This is a truly five star. The menu has unique ingredients so perfectly combined and designed. The taste of the 4 different dishes we got were truly unique. Ingredients were super fresh. We loved it. Service was very nice, no throwing the plates or silverware. They were placed in the right place. Thank you Boon for a truly nice experience. Was it cheap? No, but good food comes with a price that I am willing to pay. Congrats to the owner and chef Crista Luedtke“

“Nimble & Finn’s is a gem of a place that offers artisanal ice cream made with organic dairy and fresh ingredients. The sisters behind this business, Leandra and Jazmin, are passionate about creating unique and delicious flavors that reflect the seasons and the local produce. They also make their own jams, cakes, and candy to add to their ice cream creations.I visited their scoop shop in the Guerneville Bank Club, a historic building that also houses a bakery, a coffee shop, and a museum. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, and the staff was friendly and helpful. I tried the honey lavender and the brown butter pecan flavors, and they were both amazing. The honey lavender was light and floral, while the brown butter pecan was rich and nutty. The ice cream was creamy and smooth, and the portions were generous.I also noticed that they offer ice cream cocktails and ice cream cakes, which sounded intriguing. I would love to come back and try them someday. Nimble & Finn’s is definitely one of the best ice cream places I have ever been to, and I highly recommend it to anyone who loves ice cream and wants to support a local business.“

“Want a tight bite while driving, before or after surfing? Are the kids driving you nuts and you know food will give you at least 40 minutes of zen? The dog house is the place. Fast and friendly service, well priced. A well stocked condiment bar, beautiful view of the Bay and the hand cut fries are to die for.“

“Highly recommend boon eat + drink! We heard that if we come around 6-7pm on the weekend that there would be a long wait. We went about 10 minutes after opening on Sunday evening, and there were already 2 tables seated. The staff were so nice and attentive. There are two sections to the restaurant: indoors and a covered, heated patio area (they provide blankets). My only small complaint is that some of the tables are close together--I guess that really adds to the cozy vibe. The food was outstanding! In each dish, the different components of the dish balanced each other so well (sweetness + salty + tartness). That made the dishes feel less heavy. Appetizers: *BURRATA cranberry compote | pears | spiced walnuts | grilled bread 9/10 *CAULIFLOWER | sriracha vinaigrette | currant | sesame 8/10 (they ran out of brussel sprouts but the cauliflower was delicious) Mains: *seared DUCK BREAST | cauliflower puree | apricot marmalade | fried kale | pomegranate glaze 10000/10 *chili braised niman PORK shoulder | creamy polenta | fiesta slaw | ricotta salata + pepitas 7/10 They also had an assortment of alcohol to pair with your food :)“

“This is one of my favorite local restaurants for nearly 20 years! Cozy dining with great upscale pub food, awesome staff (Dave the bartender rocks!!!) and friendly locals. They have pet-friendly outdoor seating, kid menu, in-house dining, and separate bar with great music on Thursdays and on weekends (Sunday afternoons!) during summer. My favorites are seared ahi salad, salmon fish & chips, burgers, sliders, and the BEST FRENCH FRIES (sweet potato, garlic & regular)!!! BBQ’s oysters from What The Shuck on summer weekends and Sundays (??Please come back again this year Neil). A great stop for families, drinks with friends and hanging with the locals.Wheelchair accessibility: stair free with ramp inside back dining room“

“This is my first time to Guerneville, and Pats was the first place we ate. We came Christmas weekend, and the staff was welcoming, we’re ready to answer any questions about the area, gave us so many wonderful recommendations, and the food was terrific!Will absolutely be back when we visit again!“

“Great little caual seafood spot right on the harbor of Bodega Bay! Ginochios was exactly what I was expecting it to be with a no frills atmosphere serving up tasty food in a beautiful location. This place is certainly worth a visit if you find yourself in the area. Service: We were greeted by a friendly woman behind the counter when we entered. She made some light banter and explained what they were out of, but nothing really worth mentioning here. We went right at 11am when they transition from breakfast to lunch and they let us order from either menu. You order at the counter and they give you a buzzer which notifies you when your food is ready to pick up. Food: The high point of the experience! I ordered the Crab Sandwich and a side of fries and it was all pretty well above average. The sandwich was toasted on the outside with a nice crunch, while the crab inside was creamy, with great crab flavor and a hint of citrus. Not sure how they make it but it seemed to be their specialty and I would recommend it. Nothing too special about the fries but they were nicely seasoned with a good crisp. In general the prices are a little high for the style of food they are making, but I would say my meal was worth the money. Note, I went with 3 other people and they got Fried Egg Sando, Bacon Burrito, and Fish Tacos. None of them were too happy with their food, so I think your experience may vary depending on what you order. Do yourself a favor and order the Crab Sandwich. Ambiance: Again, nothing special here, but there are a variety of seating options depending on the weather and your preferences. When we visited it was a sunny day without much wind, so we sat on some benches in front of the restaurant. There is also indoor seating as well as outdoor seating within a courtyard which is protected by walls and windows in case it is windy.“

“I was hosting a birthday weekend at the Russian River. Spent a day canoeing (love Burke's Canoes!) and had asked the R3 to set up tables for my group of about 30. It couldn't have been more perfect! They set up the chairs behind the bar and we just had a terrific, day-after-the-river happy hour. Ron the bartender was fantastic and thoughtful. I can't recommend the place highly enough. Thanks, guys, for a memorable 60th!Also, we had the appetizers catered from the adjacent restaurant, the Rio Bistro. Paul and Christina did a fantastic job. We picked 5 apps, they served them hot -- just terrific service. Just a perfect day.“

“The food here was hot and delicious. The upper seating area was cozy, and the bar was chic and casual. Our server, who was new and had moved from Alabama to California in 2020, was gracious and wonderful. Many thanks to him, and to the kitchen.“

“We had a very good time with great food on 3/31/24 5pm. Originally we were to be 7 on the reservation, but last minute cancellations left us with only 5. Restaurant didn't bat an eye and treated us well. A bit disappointed they couldn't serve alcohol due to an issue with the license. Starter salads were very tasty and loved the salad dressing too. A seafood hot pot was a huge quite delicious portion shared by 2. The prime rib special had just come out of the oven so my husband was pleased to get the end cut - lovely mix of well done and medium with the right amount of meat & fat. No room for dessert but offerings looked good. First time dining here but won't be the last. The veggie & regular burgers were good but more average. Fries were super!“

“On March 15th at 6:30PM I walked into Northwood. Little did I know my life would change forever. Who ever was working the frier that night give them a raise! Clearly a person who is ain't anxious and is willing to let those little onion rings get to a beautiful glorious brown color. These were hands down the best onion rings of my life. Crunchy! Tasty!When you bite into them, I don't drag out the whole onion, this is key! The sign of a great cook working the frier! Thanks for changing my world.“

“Great find on a rainy day last week. Great kick back local atmosphere and the food/service was great. Had the special meatloaf. Great flavor along with a Caesar salad. Maybe a place you would pass by and think you would pass, but stop by if interested in a local flavor and not a polished feel. Looks really fun in warm weather with tons of outdoor seating. I’d stop again for sure“

“AMAZING! I wish I would have remembered our waitresses name, she was fantastic and gave us wonderful service! The pot roast and mushroom raviolis were delicious! The grapefruit mule was sooo good!! We were so glad we found this place! I would 100% come back!!“

“I'm drawn to restaurants that offer a view, so this restaurant was immediately on my list to try out when I moved to the area. Enjoying a meal outside by the fire pit while overlooking the breathtaking beauty of Bodega Bay is truly unparalleled. I've visited this restaurant several times, and each visit has been marked by consistently excellent service, delicious food, and tasty cocktails. While Bodega Bay boasts several restaurants with stunning views, this particular spot has become one of my absolute favorites due to my frequent cravings for its creative and delicious menu. I find myself drawn back time and again, eager to sample everything they have to offer.“

“Visiting from Massachusetts, found the staff to be polite, efficient and friendly. The coffee was great and I had the best breakfast burrito ever! People like to stay a bit and chat because they are not rushed out which is great but may mean waiting for a table. It’s worth the wait.“

“Very much enjoyed my time at the casino bar and Grill. The bartenders were very kind and Fantabulous at their job. The tamale pie was awesome. Love that it was a place where locals go. I felt like I was back in time when the days were Grandioso.“

“Very popular restaurant located in the Lodge at Bodega Bay. Restaurant was full on a Saturday night. Upscale interior with nice woodwork. Wonderful place for special celebrations, gatherings with family and friends, or date night. Food was solid. Excellent customer service.“
