This is probably one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had— I would say, once in a lifetime (though I really hope not!). We splurged for a special occasion and I’ll never regret it. Every detail was special. The menu even had our names printed on it when we arrived. Really cute and classy, and the wine selection was tops.

This was probably our top dining experience ever! The room transports you to a romantic, charming European setting. We sat next to a beautiful fireplace, and the mantle was adorned with holiday boughs and candles. Wow! We splurged on the caviar and perfectly prepared warm bellinis. So worth it. The chefs muse bouche was creative, delicious and astonishing, plated on a ponderosa pine bark, that had been coated with resin. What a delightful reminder, that we are surrounded by magnificent trees. Each course had a wine pairing, and everything was described in extraordinary detail, which added to the deliciousness of each bite. I can’t tell you my favorite dish, because they were all amazing. Be sure to share with your dining partners. I also have to admit, we went to the happy hour in the bar the night before. The bar menu is completely different and we were also delighted with the delicious sea bass croquets and olive oil poached halibut. I also have to mention that the bartender was a true cocktail artisan and it was so fun to see him make our smoked bourbon drinks and the Grinch macha infused vodka. We live in San Diego and would easily drive the 7 hours just to experience this lovely restaurant again! Thank you chef and staff!

What a truly magical experience! The service and ambience is outstanding. Most importantly, the food was excellent! Usually, at most fine dining restaurants, we enjoy some items and others would be alright - hit and miss. We enjoyed every single starter, entrée and dessert. Beautiful experience and we will be back. Thank you!

We went to "The Cellar" at the Elderberry House, which is more like a bar. Very up-classed, extremely talented bartender, very limited food dishes. This is literally a cellar, there is a bar, and wine cellar and a couple tables. The Cellar is open to the public, so don't let the $950 nightly room rates scare you away. Prices on food and drinks are comparable to other eat-in restaurants in the area. Wednesday is happy-hour-day where they have a large selection of very good drinks for only $10. The Cellar seats at most 20 people, so it's more for small parties, or couples. The hamburger is extremely good, the top 10 in my life.
