A birthday night! Another delicious visit to Blue Ridge Kitchen! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and a cozy ambiance that perfectly captures the rustic decor and autumn charm of the season. A huge shoutout to Cindy for her outstanding service! She made us feel right at home and was attentive without being intrusive - the kind of service that makes your experience all the more enjoyable. We indulged in the, truffle fries--crispy, perfectly seasoned, and the truffle oil made them divine,Matt's smoked Gouda smash burgers, which were a flavor explosion - juicy, cheesy, and cooked to perfection. We also tried the special beet salad, which was not only delicious but visually stunning as well. To compliment our dinner choices--we enjoyed a refreshing cucumber Gimlet cocktail, an espresso martini (a delightful twist on the classic), and a traditional martini. Blue Ridge Kitchen continues to impress with its incredible food, inviting atmosphere, and stellar service. One of our favs! read more

Based on other Yelp reviews, we decided to give this place a try. We called ahead to ensure there was not a long wait since we had a large group. They were accommodating and seated us right away. The atmosphere and decor inside was nice, sort of designed like a warehouse ceiling so it can get loud when place is full. They had a live band when we dining there on a Saturday night. The service was decent, server was nice and attentive. The entrees had decent portions. We all ordered something different and everyone enjoyed their meal. I would recommend to give this place a try if you are in the area. read more

Okay, the thing is, I enjoyed this dish for the most part. It was really tasty but it fell short in a few areas. The good: the breading was delicious. Some of the best I've had. It was very crisp and had a very nice texture to it. It latched onto the chicken well enough to stay in tact after cutting away pieces of chicken or taking bites out of it. The sauce was tasty and not overdone. I actually expected a little more but I'm happy I got less instead of too much. The mashed potatoes were delicious. Creamy, flavorful but not too gummy or dense. Take bites of the chicken with the mashed potato on the fork with a bit of sauce for a treat. Now, the not so good: the chicken was dry. It was just flat out overcooked and everyone else that ordered it at our table agreed (we had 2 other orders besides mine). Also, the portion was kind of weak.. There really wasn't much chicken on those bones. The thigh was small and the drumstick was a skinny boy. You might look at that and say, well Mike, it doesn't look THAT small.. And to that, what would you say if I told you it was $34? That is a pretty ridiculous price for a few small pieces of fried chicken, some mash and some collards (not including the extra side of collard I ordered). The space is cool, the food was tasty. Service I'd give a 5/5, food a 4/5 but the value is in the toilet 2/5. Because value is so important to me, I have to drop this to a 3-star. read more

Rather disappointed: too much sauce on fried chicken dish. Pasta was salty. And host marked us as no show on open table?!! (we took care of it with open table on our end). This place is pretty big with lots of seating and a bar. Staff were ok. - Blue Ridge Drunken Fried Chicken: Way too much sauce - The chicken & mashed potatoes were drowned in the sauce. Didn't feel good in our stomach... that said, the chicken itself was good, crispy and flavorful. The sauce also had good flavor. - Mushroom pasta: too salty, so kind of hard to eat. I'd say a bit too much sauce here too. This dish didn't sit well in our stomach either. Besides that, it would have been a nice meal. I liked the mushrooms and greens. The crumbs added a good texture to the dish. - Kale & Little Gem Caesar Salad: We ended up ordering a salad to help us with those heavy dishes. The salad was good and definitely helped. read more

As you can see from the photos I have been here many times. This place knocks it out the park 100% of the time. The staff is friendly and the food is amazing. If you are anywhere near this place you need to get there today and eat. The drinks are pretty good but the food is the star of the show. The Tuna is bonkers. The smash burger is bomb. This place has delicious new items all the time. I follow them on instagram to stay on the know. The ambience is on point as well. I gotta say, since moving here in January this is one of my favorite places. read more

Mediocre Tourist Trap Gave this place another chance several years since our first visit... The wine list is straight out of Denny's... maybe I am exaggerating... Olive Garden... but at twice the price (glass of middle rack grocery wines run $15ish) The fried catfish was more batter than cat, and the fries taste like standard issue food service shoestring with a dash of Cajun seasoning. Oh & to justify their 30ish dollar entrees... they mixed in a few leaves of fried kale & provided a garlic aioli ( that tasted like it came from Smart & Final) The service is cold & chain-esque; the cocktails are light on booze & heavy on sweetners... the only thing this joint has going for it is the patio on a warm day... other than that it is Bubba Gump's at twice the price. I am sure they are getting hosed on Barlow rents but they aren't even trying at this point. read more

Great experience with great food. I ordered off their Happy Hour menu which is only available Sunday to Friday between 3-6 PM I believe. Restaurant was fairly empty and we were seated immediately. The server was helpful in clarifying that the happy hour menu was only available at the bar and helped get us seated. The food came quickly and the truffle fries were great. It was crispy, not too salty, and the white sauce was a very nice sweet and savory mix. Meanwhile the fried chicken sandwich was amazing. It was probably one of the best I've had. The fried chicken was very crispy while being moist on the inside. The sauce was delicious and worked very well with the crispy chicken. They were generous with the sauce too as it dripped out of the sandwich. Definitely get ready for a little mess. read more

If I hadn't ordered the Cajun Shrimp Pasta would have have been a four star review I suspect. Entrees were the main issue; two were excellent but the smoked beef pasta special was not good enough for my friend to ever order again and my Cajun Shrimp Pasta was destroyed by too much salt. I've been to New Orleans many times and salt is not the key flavor in Cajun cooking. There was also something way too crunchy in there that resembled shrimp shell but might have been nuts. The rock cod fish of the day and pork chop dishes our wives had were deemed very good which was a relief. Brussels sprouts appetizer and fries we ordered as an appetizer were also very good. No beer on tap? The Scrimshaw came in cans, but it was good nonetheless. Good service, decent value, creepy hallway to get to restrooms which at least clean once you got there. Won't be in a hurry to return. Avoid the pasta dishes. Would be nice to sit outside on a sunny afternoon. read more

Could be great... but just good! Last Friday we had reservations to celebrate my birthday. We decided to sit inside because the sun was hitting hard! But we got seated at a window/garage door style spot right in the sun. The service was weird, borderline bad. They had multiple NA beers which when I ordered she said they may be out, but didn't come back till our app was served to let me know that they were out of all NA beers, about 10 mins in time. When you have 3 different NA beer options, to be out by 6pm on a Friday, that's a problem, so Arnold Palmer it was. The other negative was the pacing! We got our appetizer which was amazing (will go into more detail), but in less than 5 minutes we received both entrees! What the heck, cold appetizer warm entrees, half empty restaurant, why?! Last piece on service, I had an empty drink for probably 20 mins, and no ask if I wanted another, she even came and took my glass when I clearly had food left and nothing! Now that I write it service wasn't weird it was bad! They weren't even that busy! Okay so why 4-stars? The food was good! We started with the tuna tartare, it was amazing the sauces and avocado were great, and the rice chips were perfect. I ordered the steak that had an amazing sauce, I kept dumping my wife's fries in it and it was amazing! I do what I always do and ordered the steak medium rare to rare which I have learned always leans toward medium rare. My wife ordered the soft shell crab Blt which was great, but because of the timing she just ate the appetizer and not much of the entree. Worth another try, so as it teeters between 3 & 4 stars, we will see! read more

Coming here from south Florida, I can say it was worth going to the restaurant. There were pros and cons to the visit. We went 2x . Once with the mother of a bride & family who was getting married that weekend. The bride & groom had dined there before. My food & cocktail was very good & my cookie at the end. 3 people on the other hand ( one being my husband, second & third were the mother of the bride & her family member ) had the worse experience with the pot pie. The manager (or chef) not sure who he was did acknowledge it and removed it from the menu. A few days later was my birthday. I decided I like the restaurant enough to eat here again. Didn't make a reservation at first because we weren't sure if a few friends were going to join us. We walk up to the hostess stand & one couple was clearly annoyed & left. The host smiled and asked us if we had a reservation. I said no & she said the there was a 30-45 min wait. The restaurant had over 12 different empty seatings available. So we stepped away, I went to the website and made a reservation for 10mins later( 6pm) . She almost ruined my birthday. They did this to another walk in. I told them to do the same thing. And they were seated 5 minutes later. Your restaurant almost lost business and in some cases did. My meal again was good and my husband's linguine and clams was though good was limited on the pasta. So my experience was bittersweet. The food was indeed good. But some of the choices from staff members both days almost ruined two important days. The layout of the space was cool. read more

Stopped by on a Friday night with the most picky and critical eater I've ever known: My 12 year old little sister. In honor of her birthday and our girl date, my review will be based off her feedback. We walked in with no reservations, they offered us indoor seating with a 45 minute wait or immediate seating outdoors. We opted for outside near a heater. All staff we encountered was very friendly and accommodating. To start we ordered a dragon fruit lemonade for her and a glass of Chardonnay for me. Lemonade was an 8.5/10, Chardonnay was a 10/10(obviously). Since our appetite wasn't that big we opted for small bites/appetizers. What we had: Gouda Mac & Cheese - Vanessa's rating: 8/10, My rating: 10/10. Super creamy and indulgent, shareable portion, comfort food galore. Cajun Fries: - Vanessa's rating: 8.5/10 My rating: 10/10. Crispy, well seasoned, more comfort galore. Burrata Peach Toast: This was my sister's first time trying burrata. (I lied to her and told it was cream cheese so she would try it.) Vanessa's rating: 9/10, My rating 10/10. Of everything ordered this was both of our favorites. The burrata and peach compliment each other beautifully. The sprouts had a lemony kick to it we both enjoyed. You can't go wrong with burrata and toast but this was some of my favorite I've had in a long time. Overall I'd give BRK a 10/10. Vanessa gave it a 8/10. We will be returning. read more

Blue Ridge Kitchen - Smoked Gouda Mac and Cheese Mushroom pasta - Southern Near Me - Sebastopol, California

Came to the blue ridge kitchen for happy hour with my husband and baby. We were the only customers other than one lady at the bar and they would not serve us happy hour unless we sat at the bar or lounge. It just baffles me. This place holds probably over 150 people and we were the only customers. So we rolled over our stroller and brought our water cups over to the lounge which was 10 ft away so we can have happy hour. I get it if the place is filling up and they want to prioritize customers who are getting a full meal but we were basically the only ones there. The gesture just showed the lack of customer service. As a first time mom, I'm definitely more grateful for establishments that are family friendly and considerate of parents just trying to survive. I think that's why it bothered me so much. Otherwise, the food was tasty. Would i go back? Probably not. read more

I've tried this Barlow based restaurant a few times and - as an initial summary -- if you go, you'll enjoy decent food and have good service, but it doesn't quite hit the mark. And - I'll likely try again and order different items. Service was friendly and kind, and timely. We were seated in the dining room, where a large bar sits in the center of the room. For those that recall, is the old Zazu location pre--flood and pandemic. The interior remains about the same, open kitchen, bar, tables. The appetizer came moments after we ordered, fried brussels sprouts. Not terribly warm - wondering if they were for someone else or just prepped in anticipation? They were tasty, however and we enjoyed them. The wine list represents the area well, with generous by the glass selections. A definite positive. I chose a Mendocino Grenache and then a Sonoma Cab. I ordered "Matt's Smash Burger", which at about a $7 premium over the "Barlow Burger", adding fries (which I have had before) -- created an expectation that it would be larger, higher grade and -- actually be a smash burger. The photos illustrate the order -- not even close to what I know a smash burger to be, and having 2 at my table, feeling like a wasted $14. In fact bun to burger ratio was about 3-1. The size of the burger was probably 1/6 lb max. I actually reflect today and wonder if they just gave us the wrong item? The waffle fries, Cajun style, were decent and different. I would have preferred honestly a conventional French fry with some seasoning perhaps. A lot get lost in the pillowy nature of a waffle fry, for me. The Gouda mac and cheese was enjoyed, and came prepared in its own pot. All back to sum up: higher expectations than what was actually realized. Such incredible potential, good people perhaps make up the short comings of a disappointing meal. I almost want to go back and ask about the burger because - I just didn't get it at all, especially at a hefty $21.50. read more

Decided to come here for the first time on Valentines, our server was great, food came out fast and we didn't have to wait long for anything. Mac and cheese was average and could have been served hotter. The fried chicken was a 10/10, and is the crispiest chicken I have ever had. The burrata appetizer tasted like French toast for some reason and I don't plan on reordering if I go back. My cocktail was valentines themed and it was absolutely delicious, although when my boyfriend ordered one they had ran out of strawberry's. The smash burger was good, better than average but also not the best smash burger I've had. Burger came with no sides and for the prices of everything it should include a side. Overall food was good and tasted fresh. Highlight of the meal was the cocktail. read more

Wow what an exciting wedge salad served with a zippy blue cheese dressing and a surprising, very balanced huckleberry vinaigrette! Loved every bite! Our server Alyssa who is young and very beautiful hastily rushed us through our lunch. Slamming the silver cup with our bill onto the table while I was still eating. She never asked if we wanted anything else. Then she had the audacity to come back and try to grab the cup while I'm still eating. Again, she never asked if we needed anything else. Poor lil' Alyssa has no idea that I never give worse than a 5 star rating and am also a very respectful over tipper. Her loss. Blue Ridge Kitchen has other great servers here. I witnessed them and their mannerisms. We just drew the unlucky straw today with Alyssa. read more

The Prawn BLT is a winner. We came for the Jerk Chicken which was not available until it warms up. The BLT was an excellent substitute. The Garlic Fries were served hot, a criteria to a positive review. Cold fries suck!!! The atmosphere is glass & steel, a little chilly; but, should be nice when it warms up.

So sad what has become of this place I loved so much. They used to have Ironhorse sparkling and some very nice Pinots by the glass. The waiter said that one of the owners left and the new one isn't sure about what they are going to do with their wine or beer lists so now there are a couple icky wine options by the glass and not even a bottle list. The tuna tartare used to have chunks of avocado underneath with a large amount of tuna on top. This last time it was a guacamole with some weird flavor and the tuna didn't have any flavor but the weirdness of the guacamole. Saddest Mother's Day dinner in my life. read more

Great table service and host! Lighting in the restaurant was perfect and not overwhelming. Something I would say about the Little Jen's Caesar W/ Chicken, far too much dressing on it which made it too rich and overwhelming. The linguini with clams had a bit too much oil, could not taste the wine reduction. Another comment I had, the Truffle Fries were $16, and the Smash Burger was $15. Very odd prices. However, Sydney our waitress was amazing, very friendly and attentive throughout the evening! read more

We spent our 41st wedding anniversary together for dinner at Blue Ridge Kitchen. Dining is both inside and outside with plenty of tables to choose from. We opted for inside and were seated at a wall table with a comfortable bench style seat. Plenty of options for drink as they have a full bar. I opted for beer and my bride stayed with wine. We shared a Caesar salad to start. It was plenty big and came with several white anchovies. We love anchovies. I ordered the drunken fried chicken and my wife ordered the cioppino. The chicken was good but I should have opted for sauce on the side as it was swimming in the stuff and that took away from the crispy texture of the chicken. My wife enjoyed the cioppino and that in itself made me happy. The server and hostess missed on the anniversary. It was on the reservation and I mentioned it when we were seated. The restaurant was not busy and this should not have been overlooked or to of at least said happy anniversary. Good place in the wine country to visit for dinner. Could have been better. read more

The selection of beers is worthy of a stop, but they've also pair that with a tasty selection of house made cocktails. The vibe in the dining hall was great with the open concept bar and kitchen exposed to visitors. read more

Do not sit outside because there will be flies swarming around you and your food nonstop. It is very disgusting and ruined our dining experience. Other than that, we enjoyed the service and food although the dishes were pricey. Service: 10/10. Our waitress was friendly, quick, and recommended dishes for us to try. Food: 9/10. Burrata - 8/10. Unique in its taste and presentation but it tasted pretty good. Burrata had to be enjoyed with the bread or else, it was just way too sweet probably because of the grapes + syrup. Nonetheless, it was a very tasty and flavorful dish. Ahi tuna poke - 8/10. The chips were already pretty tasty on their own. Poke was fresh and so was the avocado. But then again, the sauces were way too sweet and overwhelming. Cajun shrimp pasta - 10/10. Had a nice kick of spiciness to it but nothing too bad. Could be shared between 2 people which included generous and big serving of shrimps. The pasta absorbed the Cajun flavor very well, and the dish overall was tasty. We really enjoyed this one! read more

The SmashBurger was good (although they will not cook it to your request below Medium). The gouda shell Mac & Cheese, however, was divine! Service was friendly. Ambiance was casual but trendy. I loved the airy space and high ceilings. The industrial modern look matched the rest of The Barlow's aesthetic. The air smelled heavily of BBQ smoke, which was one downside, but you get used to it. The bathrooms are clean. They are located down a very long hallway in the back. read more

Maaaaannnn i was so excited to eat here- it's Election Day and im definitely looking for comfort food. The fried chicken was heavily breaded and super dry It came with a tiny leg, a wing, and the toughest smallest thigh you ever did see. So lots of fried and not a lot of chicken. It was also pretty under salted :/ The mac n cheese was good once salt was added and I'm unsure of what the orange tub of sauce was. I will say the server and bartender were super sweet! It's a shame the food wasn't better. read more

This review is for the restaurants's reservation system because I did not get seated at my reservation time and ended up at a different establishment nearby. Overall, I am disappointed by the reservation system at BRK and how the restaurant is run. I understand that it is covid and everyone is doing their best AND this experience wasn't great. A couple days ahead of a planned trip to Sebastopol, I made reservations for BRK via OpenTable. I specified the day/time and desire for patio seating (covid is still very much a thing). We arranged our day trip to make the 6:30 reservation and purposefully arrived hungry. We arrived to the host and let them we had arrived for our reservation. They responded by saying that they had no outdoor seating available and that online reservations do not specifically reserve an outside table. Patrons must call to reserve the patio. This seems like a silly oversight and something that could be solved or at least communicated more effectively. The experience was frustrating and very disappointing. The host then said we could wait 40 minutes for an outdoor table, which was ridiculous. However, we asked that they keep us in the loop. Luckily, there was another restaurant/bar that was able to seat us and where were could enjoy delicious drinks/food. I wish I could say otherwise, but I can't speak to the food. However, I wanted to share the experience and disappointment. I hope OpenTable & BRK resolve this inconvenient problem soon. read more

Blue Ridge Kitchen is located within the Barlow, a food and entertainment hub of sorts in Sebastopol. I think it's a great concept. Blue Ridge has several tables outdoors as well as indoors. The menu has a good variety of dishes, so there's something for everyone. I got the tomato melon gazpacho to start with the cajun shrimp pasta. Hubby got the smash burger. I also got the dragonfruit and thyme lemonade. I think the concepts of each dish is great. But all 3 things I got were too sweet or over-seasoned. The gazpacho was very sweet, so it was almost like a dessert rather than a refreshing appetizer. The cajun pasta was too salty (I think the pecorino and bacon were unnecessary). The lemonade was too sweet. Probably should've gotten some lighter dishes given it was a very warm day. Maybe we'll be back to try some other dishes when it's a cooler season. read more

So disappointing - we really should have sent everything back. We started with the heirloom tomato salad and it wasn't remotely ripe. I ordered the Monday's special of the smoked prime rib, but it was covered in an abhorrent bbq sauce that destroyed the flavor of the very over-cooked meat. Unfortunately, the fried chicken was no better. The menu didn't mention it'd be all thighs and drowned in sauce. We decided against dessert and visited many other fun locations in the immediate area. PS: If the management reads this, I'd really appreciate a refund. Our server was amazing though. Also, highly recommend the mac-n-cheese. read more

Needed a last minute option, the staff greeted us 30 minutes before closing with no hesitation and service was excellent! The atmosphere was very nice, high end rustic vibes. Drink menu was extensive, and so many good options it made it hard to decide. To start we ordered off daily specials menu, muscles with a bacon cream sauce over noodles, it was phenomenal. Food was served quickly, and our party enjoyed the drunken chicken, cajan pasta, and Aji tuna. Everyone enjoyed their food. Service was beyond exceptional and will definitely return in the future. read more

The Mrs. and I had lunch yesterday at Blue Ridge Kitchen while making our way to Guernville. We arrived around 1 and planned to sit on the patio, but the overcast skies and slight chilly breeze quickly made us change our mind. We were seated inside at a table near the bar which was perfect. The restaurant space can best be described as cavernous. The decor is very industrial but still creates a homey welcoming atmosphere. Christina, our server, arrived to take our order while we looked over the menu. I ordered the Laughing Monk West Coast IPA. The Mrs. ordered a Margarita. Both drinks were really good. From what I could tell all of Blue Ridge's beers are canned. None are on tap. For a starter, the Mrs. and I shared the Ahi Tuna Tartare. This dish came highly recommended by my fellow Yelpers and I can see why. Beautiful pieces of Ahi Tuna mingled with smashed avocado, Asian pare coulis, cucumber, daikon sprouts, crispy quinoa, and spicy aioli. Served with crispy rice chips. I don't think I can ever go back to eating Ahi Tuna anything without crispy rice chips. The flavors of the tartare mixed perfectly with the slight saltiness of the rich chips. And all the beautiful nooks and crannies provided the perfect vessel for moving the tartare to its final destination. For our main dish, the Mrs. and I shared the the Wood Grilled Portobello Muffaleta. A beautifully grilled Portobello mushroom topped with Pepper Jack cheese, crispy onion rings, sweet peppers, resting on a bed of lettuce and tomato served on a bun slathered with secret sauce. And if that wasn't good enough, it was served with a side of very addicting truffle fries. The Muffaleta was a light, but filling dish. The portion size is enough to be shared by two people. For dessert, we shared the Tiramisu at the recommendation of Christina. It was really good. The service at Blue Ridge Kitchen was excellent. Starting from the hostess to the food runners. Parking wasn't an issue. We managed to find a spot in a small alley next to another restaurant. Being the the area if populated by breweries, restaurants, and boutique shops, I can imagine it's gets pretty busy on the weekends. read more

Blue Ridge has some of the best food I've ever eaten in Sebastopol. It's our go too for birthdays and family nights out ! Really perfect for any occasion if you ask me ! Date nights, quick bites, drinks you name it ! They also make divine Burgers too and they aren't even a burger specific place!!! What's more ? It's extremely hard to find good southern-inspired food anywhere near Sebastopol and Blue Ridge does it ABSOLUTELY PERFECTLY. Presentation is beautiful, the venue is really clean and elegant and the staff are really friendly too !!! In terms of food, my favorites are the Burgers, Fried Chicken, and the Ahi Tuna Tartare ! I just hope one of these days they add hush puppies to the menu! read more

Wow, hands down the best fried chicken I have had in years! Checked th e Yelp reviews and everyone was talking about the fried chicken, thanks to Yelp cos I am so glad I ordered it. That hot butter honey bacon sauce on the crunch fried chicken skin was absolutely divine. The dish came with two thighs and a drumstick plus 2 sides, a lot of food for one person I think. One of the best fried chicken in my life, crispy without being greasy, what else could I ask for? As far as the sides go... the collard greens and mac n cheese were disappointing, collard greens were bland and salty, mac n cheese was super overcooked. Would have been 5 stars. read more

OK, it doesn't get any better than this! Best eat of our trip! We opted to sit outside and the fun and casual vibe of it all was so pleasant! We started with the Southern Burrata Peach Toast and it was the perfect way to start the night. The toast was so nutty and chewy which the peach being sweet without being overly powering. I got the shrimp and grits which was creamy with large pieces of shrimp. I also really appreciated the shishito peppers and roasted cauliflower in the dish. It's definitely a rich dish so it may be hard to eat the whole thing but it had great flavors. The hubs got the Blue Ridge Drunken Fried Chicken and that honey bacon sauce was sooo delicious. We were expecting small portions but it came with 2 thighs and a drumstick! Everything was fried to perfection without it being greasy and the sauce was plentiful but also not drenched in it so that you can enjoy the crunch and then dip the extra sauce on the bottom if you so choose. The dish came with a side of collard greens and mac*cheese which were alright but didn't stand a chance next to those fried chicken! Overall amazing meal and I think if we had another meal to spend we would've came back here! Not crazy priced, large portions in a very California casual location! read more
