“healthy vegetarian food with so many crazy delish flavors!!! Service and food 10Stars!!!”

“Excellent visit. Early in the day, I had the Ahi Poké bowl. The fish was very fresh, tasty, and fantastic. Being right on the ocean I expected the quality of the fish to be top notch. I was not disappointed. My dish was freshly made at the time of order, rummy, the presentation was top notch, and I was immensely pleased. We returned for dinner and the experience was more of the same. My wife got the vegan ramen and I got the spicy wings. Yep, goodness to go. We ate while watching the sunset”

“Wife and I stopped after a long drive up the coast from San Francisco on a Sunday.

We were seated right away by a member of the friendly staff. Bar tender was quick to help us. My wife ordered a chicken wrap with sweet potato fries and I had an Angus burger with sweet potato fries.

The food was out quick and was fantastic. Prepared well and tasted excellent. The whole experience was great. Staff was attentive and kind. I would stop here again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!”

“The pizza is a thin Napolitan pizza-like dough but with very Californian toppings, rustic dough and refreshing pairings. There are smash burgers on the menu Wed-Thu.

The best part of the occasion, though, is a truly lovely garden where one eats on tables spread over the landscape. The surroundings create a memorable experience.”

“Beautiful cafe tucked away down a side street. Lovely and inviting interior as well as a relaxing garden outside. We had the poblano breakfast burrito and I'm not kidding when I say it was the best breakfast burrito I ever had. Homemade tortilla, a perfect balance of egg to potatoe ratio, the poblano was roasted and the flavor was subtle yet delicious. The coffee drinks were also amazing. We'll be back to try more pastries. Had the blueberry scone and I wish I knew the reciepe. 😋🌯🙏🏾”

“Best baked goods around - especially the filled pastries with blackberry or blueberry with cream cheese. Perfectly soft on the inside and crispy, flaky outside! The Mexican food not so much as our “taco” was over cooked, dried out chicken with onion on a disintegrating corn tortilla - no salsa offered. So will definitely rerun for the baked goods but not the tacos.”

“In a week, we ate here twice! Maybe again tomorrow on the way out of town. Fresh, delicious, unique recipes and great service. The baked goods are beyond wonderful and not grossly sweet like so many! Loved this little gem. Two thumbs up! ❤”

“Super great service. Great food. Great view”

“Every piece is an amazing work of art that you feel bad cutting into... until you taste it!”

“Outstanding Italian food! Love this place.”

“My wife and I celebrated our 25th anniversary at Trillium on Aug 11 and it was one of the highlights of our experience in Mendocino. The hostess that night had an amazing bouquet of flowers waiting for my wife at our table. She was incredibly thoughtful and my wife can’t stop raving about them. Next, the service was welcoming, exceptional and timely. Finally, the food was prepared perfectly. And the star of the night was the coffee! Wow. Thank you to the staff for creating a wonderful atmosphere and experience for a special milestone in our lives!”

“Good reggae music that makes me move my dancing feet”

“We have visited several times and will be going back soon. The wine is always good and Michael is a charming, generous host. It is our favorite place in Mendocino.”

“We ordered takeout from here, and the food was very good. Pleasantly surprised at how good the falafel was! They also have Cowlick’s ice cream which is one of the best ice creams we have ever had so you don’t have to drive back to Fort Bragg for it.”

“Lovely tent, delicious food!”

“I enjoyed every meal of our dinners at Ravens. The food is creative, delicious, and attractively presented. Most nights my daughter and I each got a small plate, followed by a large plate. One night we even indulged in dessert. The food is rich in vegetables and many other healthy ingredients, and is low oil and not fried. Our favorite small plate was the kale stack, and favorite large plate was the sea palm. As we roamed nearby parks, we were quite attuned to all the sea palms growing on rocks near shore. Ravens sources their sea palm locally, so we might have been looking at someone's future dinner. The portions are generous, and every night we took enough food back to our room for lunch the next day.”

“Very generous portions, really enough for two. Loved my veggie omelette.”

“fried pickles and prawns were great. fries are good too. very friendly folks and boat watching to boot.”

“Cafe Jaavy is a lovely little place with delicious food, coffee drinks and smoothies. I love the panuchos and get them every time I am in Fort Bragg. My husband loves the breakfast burrito and the chorizo breakfast plate. This place is popular, so don't be surprised to have to wait to get a seat, but it us so worth the wait. Very friendly and attentive staff. We are headed to Fort Bragg this week and we will be visiting Cafe Javvy as soon as we can after we arrive.”

“Best fish & chips I've ever had, hands down. The fish was FRESH and falling apart in my hands, and being battered & fried didn't hide the taste at all like it sometimes can. It came with tartar sauce and malt vinegar, and thick fries like steak fries. Our group was starving after our Skunk Train outing and this really hit the spot. Loved the outdoor seating (the smells of the fire pit & ocean together brought back happy beach camping memories) and several little kids in our seating area were thrilled & delighted by the pushy seagulls begging for scraps, which was fun to watch. Five happy stars from me. :)”

“The service is fast, welcoming and gracious. The chips and salsa are top top top. We ordered several different proteins and everything was on point, absolutely delicious. The aguachile is fiery and fresh. The menu has so many options, even Birria Ramen. The folks who can eat here every week are lucky!!”

“Best cookies and coffee in town! Friendly. Great hospitality!”

“Amazing food —can’t be beat! service was high-quality when I visited. My experience here was top-notch. not surprising since it’s entirely managed by women! 😉”

“Tall Guy Brewing is hands down the most enjoyable sit down/lounging family friendly brewery in All of California(not an understatement). The music, kindness of the bartenders and relaxed environment formulates the absolutely perfect evening place for my son and I to sit down, have dinner, listen to music and make new friends. I would love to see such a magical place expand in any way possible. The world needs more of this.”

“Everything is great, been there years.Meatball Sandwich, try it.”

“Best ice cream in norcal. Every time I come to Fort Bragg make sure I come here.”

“The absolute BEST breakfast/lunch option in Fort Bragg!!!! The most friendly staff ever!!! Delicious food across the board and a clean friendly atmosphere!!! 5 stars!!!!!”

“Other then the welcome in it’s my favorite bar in fort bragg”

“What a great hole-in-the-wall attached to the Sinclair minimart. Really delicious Middle Eastern ( and a little Indian ) food. We were craving gyro at this place satisfied!”

“Overtime Brewing is by far my favorite brewery in Fort Bragg. Recently, my husband and I made the 2 1/2 hour drive just for their beer (of course we had to get a few crowlers to go). Totally worth it!”
