    This was ight

    This was a pretty good late/morning meal while still at Cache Creek. The host was fast to seat a party of 4. Waiters were nice and food came out promptly.

    Burger and roast beef melt- very good
    Shelli H.

    It was pretty good! Mom and I ate dinner here the other day. Service was fine. Hostess was super sweet, waitress was ok, robot brought out food. Prices were reasonable considering we were at a casino and the food was quite tasty! Burger was legit, mom loved it and the onion rings were perfect. I would definitely eat here again and probably will. We paid with casino points. Side note- not a fan of these robots taking human jobs. Not a fan at all. And the robot they have here sings. I asked a human to make it shut tf up.

    Canyon Cafe was one of the restaurants that caught my eye during my stay at Cache Creek for the simple fact that they had a vast menu with some really good items and they offered take out. The menu is a nice size and has a little bit of everything such as pasta, steaks, seafood, sandwiches, Filipino food, burgers, chicken wings and even breakfast. They are a little bit more upscale that the traditional cafe and the prices are on the higher side. I went here twice and both times I experienced problems with my food. I ordered a New York Steak Sandwich (Medium Well) and this came with seasoned fries. The initial sandwich was cooked Medium Rare and I had to bring it back and asked for well done but it was not well but cooked medium well. I'm not sure what the issue is with not cooking the steak to the correct temperature. The second sandwich was actually pretty good, the steak was tender and had good flavor. I really liked garlic peppercorn aioli on it and I wish I would've added cheese as that may have really taken it to the next level. The seasoned fries were good as well. The second night I ate here again and decided to get steak again lol. This time I got the Grilled New York Steak which came with green beans and garlic mashed potatoes and I got it well done. I thought for sure since I ordered it well done then that's what it will be, there's no way they'll mess it up two nights in a row. WRONG!! This steak was rare!!!! I was so disgusted. I ended up taking the steak back and receiving a refund. I might eat here again but I most definitely will not be getting the steak or any beef items here as they do not cook them correctly.

    Not many restaurants were open on a Thursday so decided to try this place. Was seated promptly and reviewed the menu. The menu has several options to choose from American, Filipino, and Italian dishes. Unfortunately, not many drink options. The only options for drinks were water, Pepsi, diet pepsi, and crush. What we ordered: appetizers: - buffalo wings: good amount of spice 4/5 -garlic cheesy bread: cheesy with good number of garlic. comes in 4 pieces 4/5 entrees: -New York steak: comes with mashed potatoes and gravy, a side of greens. Steak was cooked med-well and it had flavor. 4/5 -BYOB (Build Your Own Burger): well done meat, bacon, avocado, everything on it. Burger was okay. It needed mayonnaise and mustard. It was a bit dry to my liking. 3/5 -chipotle steak melt: small pieces of steak in bread sandwich. Wasn't very tasty and bread was not toasted enough. 1/5 The cool thing about this experience was that a robot came and deliver the food. It was cute, and definitely different.

    CHICKEN FRIED STEAK

    If you're going to order anything from this place? Order the CHICKEN FRIED STEAK. It is absolutely amazing. Steak, potatoes and green beans were all perfect. I will return and order this again, guaranteed.

    We always come to Cache Creek for the pool but next time we will probably come back for the food! I love how they've incorporated Filipino breakfast dishes to their menu and for an American restaurant they do a great job! My nieces and nephew loved the breakfast tocilog and enjoyed the garlic rice. I got the Grilled New York Steak to satisfy the cravings and it did the trick--it was cooked medium well-done as requested and the mash potato was nice and buttery! Service was great--they came over to check on us often! Atmosphere is casual and family friendly! We also got to try their desert and that mango ice cream was banging good! I especially liked my apple crumble tart and the ice cream on top was a treat I didn't need haha!

    Fried bangus (milk fish) with a scoop of rice and diced tomatoes and two over-easy eggs, and a cup of coffee
    Ferdinand C.

    Wow! The menu has Filipino dishes! We ordered Filipino breakfast: Bangsilog (fried milk fish) which comes with two eggs, a scoop of rice, diced tomatoes and garlic vinegar for dipping - DELICIOUS This restaurant is inside Cache Creek Casino. The server was friendly and had our food within just a few minutes. It's not a fancy schmansy place but the service & food are great We even got fresh coffee to go!

    Coffee was delicious! Ladies working were awesome and very kind. The bear claw was delicious! Oh and the atmosphere was perfect! can't wait to visit again!

    Juicy wings
    Judy V.

    Surprisingly tasty! My family decided to do a quick staycation at cache creek and wanted to dine at the Chinese restaurant but the wait was 3.5hrs so we decided to give Canyon Cafe a try and I am glad we did. Everything was tasty! I got the ribeye, cooked medium rare and it was perfectly pink and juicy! My parents opted for steak and eggs and they ate everything. The chicken wings were also tasty. My husband got the chipotle melt which was good but heavy and greasy. Overall, great place for a quick bite and affordable. Service was fast but our server looked and sounded miserable, maybe he had a long day.

    Cherry pepper pork chop
    Patrick L.

    Service itself was great. Waiters are being semi replaced with robots that bring out food on trays. I got a new dish on the menu. It was the Cherry pepper pork chop. The pork chop itself was over seasoned - very salty. The side asparagus and mashed potatoes is good. Normally their other dishes are fairly decent, but I'll give the pork chop a pass.

The location will normally ensure To have the seafood bar, salad bar, Mexican food, then some soups and pastas, American food, meat bar and then a little bit of Asian food choices. Once seated there are assigned hostesses per section that assist you during your visit. The decor was very festive this time around for the holidays. There is not a restroom inside this location but you can get a stamp to leave to use the facilities and then return for your initial meal visit. I think the most popular bar of all would be the dessert bar, especially for the kids. Overall the location is set to accommodate a large amount of guests. During the holidays their times do change so be sure to look into before visiting. We have always had a good visit and we look forward to our next one.

Formal sit down restaurants can take so much time. This is quick and good and not very expensive. Sure if you won a big sum - go to c2 steakhouse - but if things just didn't go your way on the casino floor you can come here and eat out of a little cardboard to go box - just like the kid brother. The steak sandwich is probably the go to best thing to order - it costs a dollar or two dollars more than other things but worth it. If anything Id say avoid the philly cheese and if you really want a burger go to the Sportspage and pay a few dollars more. Other deli stuff here is great. The views and the landscaping and the outdoor patio really make this place so special. I love to visit every week see what's going on out there. Casinos usually don't have any windows - so the windows and outdoor space here I really soak up. Wonderful place to come - enjoy the good food, the excellent views and the patio dining.

Once we got there, the table was ready and set for us. We all had waters and extra for the table to refill our glasses. Our waitress was so kind and she was very quick. Everyone's food came out in a pretty timely manner and everyone cleared their plates. I tried the Americana coffee and the menu showed that the syrup was made in house. I really enjoyed it as it wasn't a super sweet taste. After all of the heaviness from the weekend I went with the simple potato and eggs breakfast. It also came with a piece of sourdough toast. Eggs over easy and home fries. I also added 2 chicken sausage patties. The sausage was great and not too salty and the eggs were perfect. Our waitress noticed we were all dressed up and asked what we were celebrating and when we told her it was a bachelorette party she was struck up a conversation with the bride and even gave her a free cookie to take home. Things to note. Is located in a downtown area so only street parking but it's free on Sunday.

I've been coming to Farmstead over the years and it was one of my favorite recommendations for those visiting St. Helena. I've sent friends, family and out-of-town visitors here, often raving about how good it was. So when I took my immediate family to Farmstead a few weeks ago, I made a reservation, drove over 40+ minutes from the southern part of Napa Valley and genuinely looked forward to returning. Making reservation online was easy, parking is available (although it can feel like a competitive sport once everyone decides to arrive at the same time), the covered outdoor seating remains lovely, the barn transformed to a dining room with its high ceilings is still a beautiful space and the bathrooms were clean. Unfortunately, the food was simply didn't live up to what I remembered. We started with the cheddar biscuits with honey butter. I expected warm, tender biscuits. Instead each of the biscuits were surprisingly, almost as if they've been left in the oven a few minutes too long. The honey butter tried its best to salvage the situation, but was unsuccessful. We also ordered the fried eggplant which skipped right past golden brown and headed directly into "left in the fryer during a staff meeting" territory. For entrees, two of us ordered the steak frites. The cut of the day was a flank steak and we both ordered medium rare. Mine arrive firmly in the medium-well territory. It's disappointing when your steak lands two doneness levels above what you requested. A friend ordered the grass-fed cheeseburger medium. It also came out well beyond that point, dry and crumbly rather than juicy. He was expecting a burger. What showed up as something closer to a semi-palatable hockey puck. The wood-grilled heritage pork chop was probably the strongest dish at the table. At $52, however, we were expecting something memorable. It was fine. Perfectly acceptable. But "perfectly acceptable" isn't exactly the reaction you're hoping for at that price point. Dessert was a small bowl of stracciatella gelato. That's it. No wafer, no cookie, waffle cone shard, no sprig of mint or garnishment to make it feel finished. I can see wanting to accommodate dietary restriction like those who are gluten-free, but it would have been nice to have an optional accompaniment. We kept the drinks simple. Service was fine. Total bill came out to be about $330 for lunch with tip. What stood out wasn't the cost, but the lack of excitement or something being memorable. You're dining at a popular restaurant in Napa Valley, you're going to be paying a premium. At our table, nobody was particularly excited about the meal they had or interested in taking home any leftovers. Maybe it was an off day. Maybe nostalgia elevated my memories beyond reality. Whatever the reason, this experience felt very different from the Farmstead I've enthusiastically recommended over the years. The restaurant was very busy with a steady stream of people coming through the entire time while we were there, so clearly plenty of diners continue to enjoy it. But based on this visit, I don't see myself recommending it the way I once did. I'm just one customer. Still, this was a disappointing return to what had long been one of my favorites in St. Helena.
