My wife and I had lunch here before a wedding. We were very favorably impressed.
We shared a delicate, homemade tomato soup to start with. Then I had a beautiful, multicolored curry chicken salad replete with tomatoes, jicama, beets, avocado, carrots, cucumbers, orange peppers, pickled red onions and assorted greens. It tasted as good as it looked. My wife had a very nice egg salad sandwich, served pipes-faced as in Scandinavia. We really enjoyed our meal.

Beautiful barista but weak espresso drink. I hesitate to knock a place that has really friendly service. But the coffee missed the mark. I had high expectations as she ground the beans but our coffee went in the trash after we left. I didn't want to hurt her feelings because she was so nice to us.

Daily farm-fresh specialties such as soups, salads, snacks & desserts to accompany our Neapolitan-inspired pizzas fired in our wood oven.

We visited this restaurant on a Monday night, which happened to be Ramen night. I chose a wood-fired pizza and my partner chose the Ramen. Both of our meals were excellent! The restaurant is small and does not take reservations. We went when the doors opened and were seated at with only a few available seats left. But, you can always enjoy a glass of wine and wait for a table if it is full. Highly recommend.

We had a great meeting here and the food and wine were wonderful. But the best part was the owners who served us and chatted about the day.
The seafood is great and the pricing very reasonable. But you should definitely start with the truffle fries. Wow!
Would be a romantic evening for a couple and right across the street from the local hotel.

We loved everything from the repurposed building and decor, to the eclectic and seasonal menu, to the owner's hands-on graciousness, to the beautiful landscaping. We especially enjoyed the vegetarian and gluten free menu choices, including unique homemade ice creams such as fennel ice cream! Children we saw enjoyed the handcrafted macaroni and cheese, and adults loved the large selection of local and international wines. The servers were attentive, kind, and knowledgeable. Wish The Bewildered Pig was near our home!

It's not so easy finding good eats in Boonville in January. Go here. We stopped going up to Mendocino and on the way home. Excellent cappuccino (not bitter!) and great egg, cheese, bacon sandwiches. Very pleasant ladies running the restaurant and a great clean bathroom. Free wifi.
7. Lemon's Philo Market

Stopped in the middle of our wine tastings. This is a little country store with great prices on wine, a butcher and fish shop, and most importantly sandwiches quickly made with heaping mounds of your choice of meat and vegetables on fresh bread. The day I ordered they had cooked up a prime rib which made a great sandwich with lots of flavor. This is how sandwiches should be made quick and fresh. Do not pass these people by, with the wine you can have a nice picnic lunch.

Located in the Boonville Hotel in Anderson Valley.
Reviewed By DogenJoe - San Francisco, CA
This prix-fixe dinner restaurant wowed us last night, with a delicious smoked trout pate, a crisp little gem salad, a decadent roast pork with polenta and horseradish cream, and a wonderful chocolate walnut tart. All with knowledgeable and attentive service. A perfect meal after spending the afternoon touring the majestic redwoods at Montgomery Woods State Reserve, which is a lot like Muir Woods without the hordes.
This restaurant is always good -- worth a day trip to see the redwoods and eat here.

We were staying across the street at the Boonville Hotel and this restaurant was across the street and easy to walk to. We had a burger and enchiladas both were average and what one would expect at this type of restaurant. Server was pleasant and efficient.
10. Mosswood Market

Reviewed By Cantorpam - Berkeley, California
The last time I wrote a review of Mosswood it had different owners. I have eaten here since the new owners and have reserved judgement. Now I'm convinced it's still a comfortable place to drink good coffee, have a sandwich and salad, and use the wifi. The staff is very friendly. They brought a water bowl for Roxie-the-Golden. Outside seating is very comfortable. They have the best sticky buns, if you get there early enough. Nice place to people watch.
