That's my experience of Northspur. I've never stopped here with friends, but I've thought of my friends while I've visited. As in, this is a place my friends would really like. And, this: it feels like folks from around these parts that have friends come here with friends, and while they're here from all appearances they have a really good time. They could be faking but I don't think they are. The Willits bypass as observed by others and maybe other places by me was an unnecessary boondoggle that not only separated normal CA taxpayers from their money so as to avoid maybe five minutes extra travel time as they whisked north to ... to where would anyone need to be whisked in the north. I-5 is for whisking. 101 is for a different kind of trip. Not only that, the bypass also then has folks that don't know what's in Willits pass right on by. Their loss, though also a stake in the heart of the vitality of local business. Thanks, legislature, Caltrans and people that make money building things we don't need. This then for the people that would otherwise whisk by without stopping and are maybe hungry and turn to Yelp as the leave Ukiah to see what's ahead. Northspur is ahead, my friends. And if it's late in the day, get a room in town so you can sample every drop Northspur has to offer. The vittles aren't complicated, the menu isn't exhausting - but everything on it is good. The brewed offerings are delicious. Staff is straight out of Lake Woebegone (all the women are strong, all the men are good-looking, and all the children are above average). Friends with friends are having a rollicking good time and the vibe vibes with this happiness. I will stop every time. Try it once and I guarantee you will as well.

The diner itself is clean, neat, and well maintained, and right away we noticed how friendly the staff was. Our server, May, was a total sweetheart--very kind, accommodating, and attentive. She truly stood out and made us feel welcome. Honestly, she would be a great manager if she isn't already. Unfortunately, there were a few issues. The first thing we noticed was that there was no hot water in the bathroom, which isn't ideal--especially on a cold night and from a hygiene perspective. Ray ordered the ribeye steak and was pretty disappointed. While it was $28, it lacked flavor and didn't have a proper sear or crust--it was gray and just not enjoyable. I ordered the vintage burger on toasted sourdough, and that was actually very good. I enjoyed it and thought it was well done. I really like to give full stars when they're deserved, but this experience just didn't quite add up. Great service and a clean space, but the food inconsistency and no hot water made it hard to rate higher. Hopefully these are things that can be improved because the staff--especially May--was excellent.

Everything was fine flavor wise, but the burgers were extremely salty and the beef was so tough that it honestly tasted like a frozen patty rather than fresh beef. The fries were also overly salty. I know this place has had a lot of great reviews, so maybe we just had an off day, but for the price and the reputation, I expected better. I'd definitely come back for the vibe and give it another shot because I want to see this place do well, but the food needs some work.

It was awesome, particularly considering we were celebrating somewhat of a milestone bday. We were seated when we arrived and greeted by our server immediately after the bus person had served us our water and delivered warm bread and butter to get us started. We ordered New York steaks with baked potatoes, salad with house dressing and salad with bleu cheese dressing, and a glass of house red to accompany dinner. The bread, salad, and dressings were very tasty. The steaks were cooked to perfection and seasoned wonderfully. And the baked potatoes were a great texture and heat and served with enough sour cream to make them enjoyable. Portions were very generous. I couldn't finish my meal. Everything was very good, I'm sure we'll be back.

First thing I had to test was the rice because if you know, you know. It was always the best I'd had at any Mexican restaurant anywhere, and I'm happy to report nothing has changed. Still fluffy, still flavorful, still exactly what I remembered. My son ordered enchiladas with their green sauce and that sauce deserves its own paragraph. Tangy, bright, and full of flavor without being overwhelming. Definitely something I would order myself next time. I went with the El Mexicano burrito and the poblano peppers inside absolutely made it. Deep flavor, and just full of cheese, and one of those meals where you slow down a second just to appreciate it. I also tried the birria and the flavor alone already has me planning what I'm ordering next visit. Service was excellent. Attentive without hovering and genuinely helpful. One thing I really appreciated is how flexible they are. They'll adjust dishes for taste or dietary needs and pretty much anything can be made vegetarian, which makes it easy when you're dining with different preferences. There's also plenty of seating, which makes it great whether you're coming in solo, with family, or with a group. For me this wasn't just a meal, it was a reminder of a place I used to enjoy back on the coast, and it was nice to find that same quality and consistency still alive here. I'll definitely be back.
