    This isn't our first time to Cravings and it won't be our last. I had the soy chorizo eggs scramble with home potatoes. Perfect combo of fresh ingredients and spices. My hibiscus raspberry fog tea hit the spot on the snowy day. Hubby had a crispy waffle filled with bacon. Restaurant is clean and service was exceptional! Excellent breakfast!

    Steak and eggs Benedict
    Natalie M.

    This place has some yummy options! I loved their steak and mushroom benedict and the French dip. So so flavorful! Their bear claw is also super delicious. I don't t know if I'd recommend their hashes. They don't come with much meat but they're good. Service was nice and this place offers a good selection of brunch and lunch dishes. Very fresh!

    SoCal Scramble with cheddar cheese

    I read wonderful reviews about this restaurant and needed to check it out! We were warmly greeted when we waited to be seated, and when you walk in, it feels cozy and delightful! We were seated fairly quickly and enjoyed looking at the beautiful paintings on the walls while we looked over the menu. I ordered a cappuccino, which was delicious, and the SoCal Scramble. The scramble tasted fresh and so filling. The service was wonderful and the staff was so friendly! If we go through Chester in the future we will be stopping by here again!

    Spinach and goat cheese scramble comes with toast, upgraded to fruit for a small charge.

    Nice breakfast brunch option if you are heading to Lake Almanor or dining in and around Chester, on your way to Lassen (or if you're a local.) A sit down cafe co-located with a small bookstore and an indoor expresso bar & take away cafe, so pick your experience. It was packed for Sunday Brunch and is clearly a local and traveler favorite. We had a sit down brunch outside by the creek that included a half soy chorizo benedict, pancakes and a spinach goat cheese scramble. Points for the soy chorizo benedict and for plenty of outdoor seating. Although small, the bookstore selection is mighty with a good fiction selection and a large rack of maps and books for travelers to the area who want to hike, fish or just learn more about the county. Service was friendly, but distracted. Things that weren't awesome included a load of no-see-ums that live in the nearby creek and made outdoor dining a little buggy for us. I had to fish a few out of my coffee. OJ here is not made fresh, our waitress saying it was from Florida. Their coffee service was just okay (neither strong or flavorful) and included half and half in tiny plastic cups and C&H white sugar packets. For those curious, about 70% of the staff was masked (30% unmasked) so they perhaps leave it up to individual employees to decide to mask up. On the other hand, given that most local businesses are no longer masking, they are probably on the good end for this in the area.

    Biscuits and gravy and Chorizo Scramble
    Fairchild V.

    The coffee and service is spectacular but the food could use some REAL improvements. Boyfriend got the biscuits and gravy and the biscuits tasted like they were baked the day before in a giant tin and then left to sit in the tin, maybe with some Saran Wrap on the top in the fridge. Meaning the biscuits tasted old, cold and like they had sat absorbing mold in the air. The sausage gravy tasted like cream of mushroom soup. I got the chorizo scramble, starting from the potatoes, soggy, old. Tomatoes and spinach, soggy & old. I think the best thing was smashing the avocado on the English muffin. Only thing that wasn't gross was the English muffin and that's because they fortunately don't make those in house so they can't be messed up. Update to respond to the owner. Thank you for noticing my feedback. First, you telling me a I need to speak up, why is it my job as the customer to correct you? Take ownership in the fact your biscuits were old and you serve biscuits that weren't baked fresh that day. (Which isn't a big deal that the biscuits weren't fresh it was the fact they tasted so old) it makes sense why this is done (to save money of course) also make sense to serve soggy old vegetables because it's winter and business is slow so you aren't going through items as quickly. I am not on here posting these reviews for fun. I am pointing out my real experience. Obviously your chef need a lesson in quality control and has gotten a little bit lazy. I am not trying to be mean or insult anyone. As a restaurant owner really think about what I am saying. This is a quality control issue. Cut a slice of the old biscuits and taste them and see if they are still good to serve to your customers. Throw out old veggies. It shouldn't take me as the customer saying "hey these veggies are all soggy and old" when it takes visual inspection to understand they are not of quality to be serving. It's a testament to how you run your kitchen. From the looks and taste of the food I received it's apparent there is serious lack of organization in the kitchen and food storage. I'll be back another time to give you another chance and we will see if you improve now that's it's starting to get into the busy season. If my food is actually of good quality I will change my review to 5 stars.

    This little hidden gem packs a punch with it's delicious food, friendly service and bucolic charm…read more We visited Graeagle and discovered The Iron Door just a few miles away in Johnsville Ca. We left satisfied and happy to plan a return visit very soon. The food we had, crab cakes, clam chowder, chicken marsala, beef stroganoff and berry cobbler were all absolutely delicious! The espresso martini I had was unmatched. The staff, servers, chefs & owners were all friendly and welcoming. We look forward to returning often to one of our new favorite restaurants. If you're in the area don't hesitate to eat here. A+

    Amazing little spot in what feels like the middle of nowhere in Johnsville Ca 10 minutes west of…read moreGraeagle. A beautiful historic building from 1876 with all the rustic charm you'd expect , original hardwood floors , beautiful wood beams and a cozy little bar right when you walk in . The staff was super friendly, great customer service and hospitality, squeezed us in without a reservation! My wife and I enjoyed the Chicken Marsala and Beef Stroganoff each served with mashed potatoes and mixed veg. Both meals were cooked to perfection with a delicious sauce that should accompany each dish . 10/10 for me on both dishes, it would be hard to pick a favorite but I'd have to order the stroganoff again on my next visit ..... too good!! Both meals came with a delicious side salad - blue cheese dressing was house made and yummy! Fresh bread, two different kinds , both were spot on . Iron Door hit a home run with every single portion of our meal and the rustic country charm of this hidden gem was the icing on the cake!!! I almost don't want to share my secret........ but if you are visiting Graeagle, pass on all the dining options in Blairsden and Graeagle and head up the mountain to little ol Johnsville for a meal that is sure to satisfy! If you want to impress your friends the super cool hidden gem that only the locals know about, The Iron Door is THE place to go. Cheers!!
