15 Best American Restaurants near Mendocino

“Delightful spot where you can enjoy lunch, coffee, and bakery treats.While the food and ambiance are excellent, there’s one aspect that finds less appealing: the mandatory 15% service fee for the employees.Despite this, the cafe offers a wide range of organic, whole foods, including fine French pastries and baked goods. If you’re looking for gluten-free options, they have those too!“

“Loved this place! Awesome, Irish/small town/friendly/sports pub-like vibes with incredibly fresh and delicious food and great drink selection. Brian was a delightful server who made meal accommodations for us and had such a great attitude and energy to everyone he came in contact with. Everyone who worked there, in fact, did as well. Happy to come across Patterson’s on our road trip.“

“Trillium welcomed us into the restaurant even though we did not have reservations. We chose to eat under the tent and loved the tranquil atmosphere of eating alfresco amongst the fairy lights. The tall heaters provided a nice warmth for a crisp night. The service was great and the food was good.“

“I am a sucker for a good diner breakfast! This place was a highlight of our last visit. (My husband has been making chilaquiles at home ever since.) As we are planning our return trip, I know we'll be back!Parking: Strip mall parking- available spaces depend on current traffic.Wheelchair accessibility: First floor access and all tables have chairs.“

“Good, simple diner fare. Good service on a very busy morning. A bit dingy inside, but that’s not unusual at a breakfast joint like this.Waitstaff recommended a few food items (potatoes and biscuits were GOOD!) and suggested we come back for their Easter egg hunt the following morning. Very kind people!Parking: Parking lot was small and we had to park down the street a bit. It was rush hour for breakfast, though, so no complaints from us for that.Kid-friendliness: Very kind staff. Asked our boys what they wanted and checked in on them as regularly as they could (it was VERY busy the morning we visited). Lots of kid-friendly breakfast items that even our picky child enjoyed (strawberry waffle and French toast).“

“We were here for my brothers birthday, food was amazing, service 10 out of 10, server was very helpful giving recommendations. I ordered the risotto with salmon and it was really good, we met the chef Robbie at the end and congratulated him for his restaurant and the food. 100% recommended if you are in the Mendocino/ Fort bragg area.“

“In comparison to the other breweries in town, you can tell this one is a bigger name. It has much less small town feels and as a result less personality to it all. But the beer is known for a reason and still always good to go where it starts from! They have a fun gift shop too“

“We had our first dinner at this great restaurant last night. It was superb. I had the eggplant Parmesan and it was the best!! Service was also great. It was a lovely evening out in Fort Bragg. Thank you for your atmosphere and making us feel welcomed“

“Love the new location! Much roomier with beautiful views of the harbor. The food was mediocre. Fish and chips the breading is wonderful, light & crispy, it just needed more seasoning. The ceviche needed heat and seasoning. Also, they chopped up larger shrimp instead of using the traditional small bay shrimp which made it difficult to get a good scoop on your tortilla chip. Service was great. We will definitely be back again.“

“Unbelievable view and incredible fireplace in room.. Place sits on top of a bluff and photos don’t do justice to view. Saw many birds of prey circling my morning coffee on porch.Food & drinks: Had breakfast which was excellent and fresh with beautiful view.“

“Great hostess and great restaurant, under a little renovation but the chefs are top notch, good coffee I hade the lumberjack scrambled that comes with either bread or a pancake while my girlfriend had the French toast with eggs and sausage. Will returnWheelchair accessibility: It's all one level“

“This was one of the best pulled pork sandwiches I have ever had. And their BBQ sauces are delicious. I didn’t get the man’s name but he was very kind, and the service was great, and the food didn’t take long. My boyfriend got the ribs, which were also delicious. We really liked the location of the restaurant, and enjoyed their outdoor seating. I highly recommend this place for your BBQ favorites!“
