“Gooney's Bar is an oasis and welcome mirage in the relatively deserted Foothill region. Not only is the cabin-like decor of this bar/restaurant very aesthetically pleasing and instantly welcoming, the bathrooms are so clean, well-kept and sanitized you will wonder if you stumbled into a medical plaza rather than a bar. Owing to the gregarious and attentive owner, as well as the young, but very professional bartenders, Gooney's has created the comfort and atmosphere of a dive bar, without the grime and occasional hiccups that often plague those establishments. The food is varied and delicious and the fairly-priced craft beers and cocktails are always spot on. Whether you're a regular or just passing through, I can promise a great experience and you might just leave with a new friend or two.“
“Awesome restaurant with an exquisite menu and a very friendly bartender! Our chef is very experienced and will keep coming back for more. Probably one of the finest dining experiences in the entire Gold Country! Black Bart restaurant and inn is the place to be when traveling through the Gold Country on highway 49!“
