    Waited 20 min for anyone to even come by and acknowledge us. Got up and left. The girl in the front was like " are you leaving ?" No apology. I get it things get hectic, a simple acknowledgment of existence would have been nice. Hospitality is not this establishments strong suit. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Inside was pretty and unique.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] There's plenty of other places to eat that greet you and acknowledge you.

    Chicken pie
    Jessica D.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is SO cool and unlike anything I've ever experienced. The second you walk in you get a light up headband, there's live Renaissance music playing, and the decor is completely over the top fairytale vibes everywhere you look... even the bathrooms look like you're in an actual forest, which is insane.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We were lucky enough to get one of the forest booths and it really feels like you're sitting inside an enchanted woodland.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Absolutely loved it and would go back in a heartbeat for the ambiance.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] For food and drinks -- the mead flight is so fun and I loved the honey flavor. The original mead was my favorite. The chicken pasty pie is a must -- get one for yourself, don't share it. Trust me. The fondue was a fun group experience but I honestly wouldn't recommend it for the food itself...the ingredients and sauces were below average and expensive for a group. Stick to the pies, sip your mead, soak up the ambiance, and have the best time!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Enchanted Forest is one of those rare places that feels like you've stepped into another world the moment you walk in. The whimsical fairy-tale décor, twinkly lights, and storybook details make it feel timeless... like dining inside a fantasy novel![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] But the real surprise? The food is genuinely amazing. This isn't just a cute theme restaurant! the dishes are thoughtful, flavorful, and beautifully presented. It's the kind of place where the ambiance draws you in, but the quality of the food makes you want to come back again and again. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's also fantastic for kids. My toddlers were completely enchanted by the setting, and it's one of the few places where adults and kids can both feel delighted at the same time.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]BUT somehow it's also the type of place you could sit at the bar and have the best girls night (with the complimentary sparkly flower crowns, of course)[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was perfect, all the gals are delightful. If you're looking for a magical dining experience that's actually delicious, Enchanted Forest is absolutely worth the trip.

    Chicken pastie/pie...not the best choice
    Dan W.

    Definitely come for the experience. We did.... but the food is good, too. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Some of the wait staff really got into the theme, wearing elf ears as we were served under a forest lit night scape with twinkling lights everywhere. We were also given colorful lit crowns as part of the fun.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our server was very attentive and friendly, and had a nice conversation with us. They have themed drinks, which I typically do NOT enjoy, but the poison apple drink was perfect. Just enough bourbon and fruit flavors mixed...very good. The food was good...I simply chose wrong. The baked brie appetizer was very good, as were the various fruit compotes and chutneys to dip it in. The pasties, on the other hand....just tasted of bland meat mixed with fried spices in a puff pastry. Not very good. My wife's steak, however, was cooked perfectly, and she gulped down the shrimp. She already wants to come back, and that's saying something...besides limiting to 2 drinks. ;) Overall, a fun time, and I definitely will come back, but will probably change up my food choices

    Salmon

    I've been meaning to try this place and finally got to go with my girlfriends for my birthday. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a very cute fairy forest theme.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The server was very friendly and attentive. The steak was super moist and delicious but the salmon was a little too sweet and the corned beef pasty was a little too dry. Overall, it was a great experience especially for birthdays bc they give out a piece of delicious chocolate cake with happy birthday written on the plate. We ordered the key lime pie with blackberry and that was really amazing. It's a place you have to try at least once for the experience.

    Menu entrees

    What a gem and memorable experience for my family! Have kids? This is a one in a lifetime experience and would very highly recommend it at least once if you're able to (priorities first!). Magical ambience with lights twinkling in a forest enchantment environment. Biggest tip I can offer? Make a reservation ahead of time and don't settle for regular table seating - keep looking through each day and the multiple time slots for a seating at their magical table experiences. We were fortunate to sit at their Fun Nature Fort Booths. No difference in service or anything like that, it's just that you'll get to have booth side tables with a towering curved leafy vine above you with a warm lantern lighting your way.. through the forest.. of fairy time enchantment. And if your kids (or yourself) have a heightened imagination (or they just can't sit still), you'll be glad to have those booths. They give you magical crowns that light up! And yes, you get to keep them so don't throw them away or leave them behind. Service was fantastic, food was simply delicious and absolutely amazing, main dining room was a magical experience, and their bathrooms were quite a surprise! Pictures are worth a thousand words - aaaand I'll leave it at that. Drinks. Must try - Forest Flight of Meads where you get 5 flavors infused with deliciousness. Our favorite was Chai! Oh so good! But NOT a fan of the Apple flavored. Also had Fairytini and Lavendar Leprechaun - both of which helped us forget our toddlers for a moment. Food. Forest and Sea - hands down winner! Filet mignon (medium rare), scallops, and shrimp cooked to perfection. Popular order is the boneless braised beef short ribs - super soft, mouth savory, but just not my cup of tea. If you're into braised beef, though, then you're going to love it! If ever, would love to try their Irish gold miner's pasty pie.. looks like an entree for coming champions. Maybe grow a tuft of chest hair with each bite? Appetizers we had were Lobster Seafood Bisque soup (bowl) and Irish Whiskey Shrimp - both were top notch glory enchantments! Dessert. Blackberry key lime pie. Trust me on this. Each bite with a flavor explosion of blackberries and lime.. incredible! Parking. Good luck with this. I know there're time limitations but luckily no meter maid that day.. I don't think it's enforced much but just keep in mind there are time limits. Street parking if you're lucky, otherwise it might be a bit of a walk for ya. Highly recommended to try AT LEAST ONCE with your family and give the little ones a core memory they won't forget.

    Chocolate Fondue
    Eka B.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great food and fun experience at Enchanted Forest.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We were given fairy light crowns to wear right away which were super cute.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We had the Prosciutto Bacon Wrapped Asparagus starter and Three Course Fondue. The Cheese Fondue with Gouda was tasty and complex. The Main Fondue with steak, shrimp, grilled chicken and meatballs was delicious, and the dark chocolate fondue dessert was perfect with the fruit but too sweet when paired with the cookies and treats. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall, I highly recommend for the fun atmosphere and quality food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Cheesecake
    Mlissa H.

    I have been wanting to try this place since seeing it on IG but it was quite a bit away so have been putting it off. We decided to suck it up and drive the 1.5hrs. First impression: very cute and cozy. I loved the greenery and wooded walls. A bit cramped once you go in and sit. Like I don't think they could add anything else. But the waiters can walk around and thats all that matters I guess. We got these cute floral headbands which I thought was fun. Our waitress was polite, took our orders quickly, told us about the specials and was attentive. The food was unfortunately not impressive. For apps we ordered lobster bisque and tapas. The soup we never received, the tapas they were out of one. The smoked salmon and goat cheese and apple were great! The prosciutto and fig was the one that was out and the baked brie we ordered 2 of. It was TERRIBLE. It tasted like raw feta (yuck!!) untoasted bread, some pickled something and idk what the white things were on it. Just bad. Nothing baked or brie about it. For entrees we had braised rib and one of the special pasty pies they had (steak and mushroom). My husband said the rib was mid. The steak and mushroom pasty was nothing special. Dessert was fluffy cheesecake and keylime pie. The cheesecake was great. Not overly sweet at all. Almost european in its taste of stronger cheese than sweetness. The key lime was very sweet tart and rich but good. All in all I enjoyed the aesthetic, the service was good, food came out quickly but the food was unfortunately not worth the drive/hype/price. Which sucks bc I feel like it started off good with apps and seemed promising. unfortunately the entrees were not great and that seems normal for these themed places. If I could give a 3.5 stars i would as that is more how I feel.

    mini fondue w/ kids meals
    Cindy S.

    When we first learned about Enchanted Forest, we really wanted to check it our but regretfully it took their closing announcement to finally get us there. But good news, they aren't closing anymore! Enchanted Forest is a unique, charming experience with delicious food and excellent customer service. The restaurant is small but as you enter you are welcomed by fairies then further in emersed into the forest. We were able to get a Nature Fort Booth which seemed more magical than Under the Tree. The kids enjoyed the wooden and log designed cushions and lights on the table. The servers all have fairy ears and guests are given fairy lights which add to the experience. The menu is a bit short but there is something for everyone. My husband and I ordered the Irish Gold Miners Pie and Boneless Braised Beef Short Rib while the kids got the Three Course Experience with pizza and chicken on a stick. The presentation of the Irish Gold Miners Pie was pretty cool as it is topped with edible gold flakes. The outer crust was flaky and inside filled with corn beef and potatoes. My husband said it had good flavor and he was surprised by the large portion and how much filling was in the pie. The Braised Beef Short Rib was saucy, savory, tender and went really well with the mashed potatoes and vegetables. I could really taste the mead and garlic flavors in the beef. As for the kids' meals, they enjoyed their fresh fruit, the grilled chicken is just that; grilled chicken on a stick and pizza was just okay. The highlight of their meals was the mini fondue where they dipped fruits, marshmallows, and other treats in chocolate. A little pricey but the food is good and don't forget you are paying for an experience. The kids dressed as a wizard and fairy for extra fun. If you have littles, especially little who love fairies and magic, I recommend checking the Enchanted Forest out at least once.

    Decadent triple chocolate cake
    Cassie B.

    I have been to enchanted forest several times and I've had an amazing experience every time! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambience is really what makes this restaurant, when you arrive you are given light up flower crowns which really enhance the experience and match the ambient lighting in the restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The waitresses are always dressed up in ren faire attire which also adds to the experience, when I came here for my birthday last year they even had someone playing live music which was really cool.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I've had the baked brie before which is delicious and has the perfect amount of balance with the crackers and good portion size. The stuff portebello mushroom are my go to entree each time, the lentils mixed with the cheese and plant based Italian sausage is so delicious plus I love that it comes with carrots and a side salad. I also love getting the mead flight and had one last year when I went for my birthday for this recent trip with my boyfriend I got their peach mead and it was soooo good. I know mead is considered a sweeter alcohol but I really like it. And getting the flight to share with my friends last year in May was perfect! For desert at my recent visit my boyfriend and I tried their decadent triple chocolate cake, it was perfect it was light and fluffy and not super dense like most chocolate cakes are. Overall I highly recommend this place to come on a date night, celebrate your birthday or just to come to experience the enchanted forest!

    Ask the Community - Enchanted Forest

    I'm looking at reservations for 2, I see on their website that there is dining for 2 in the back of the restaurant OR the fun dining bar? Can anyone tell me if one area of the restaurant is better than the other? Thank you 😊

    When I visited in November, the back seemed to be much better. The front is very cramped with people constantly walking right next to you. The back is also themed better

    I have 2 large, well behaved dogs, not service dogs. Are they allowed at your park?

    This is a restaurant, no place for pets. It's indoors.

    Do you allow pets for outdoor seating? Me and my husband are planning to dine there for our anniversary.

    We would love so much to allow pets however legally we are only allowed service animals to be inside.

    Are reservations required or just suggested?

    If going on a weekend I would make reservations but not required

    Are there any vegan options?

    Yes. They have items to please the carnivore, the vegetarian, and the vegan.

    Are dogs allowed?

    Yes service dogs are allowed and we do have an outside table for those with pet dogs.

    What is the maximum size for a party reservation?

    The average parties are 8-12 but we have done larger for wedding rehearsal dinners and family reunions. Call for details 916-715-9755

    What is your corking fee if we choose to bring our own wine / champagne?

    Such a cute little spot in Placerville! It was really cozy and charming! Staff were really friendly…read moreand welcoming! We came with a party of 6 on a Thursday for brunch and was seated right away. It seems like it definitely gets busy, especially the weekends! The portions were HUGE. Everyone was stuffed! My toddler especially loved the warmed blueberry bran muffin -- toddler approved. The muffins seem to go fast, since people seem to stop by just to their pastries. We ordered some with our meal, and later my in-law decided they wanted one to-go, but they were already sold out. I got the quiche and it was really delicious. It was a little heavier on the cheese for my personal taste, but still really good and I enjoyed it. I also had leftovers! We also tried the blueberry pancake, which was fluffy and full of blueberries! I was pleasantly surprised because many places skimp on blueberries, but this was loaded! It was perfect! Others in my party also got omelettes and they enjoyed it as well. Overall, cute atmosphere, friendly staff, generous portions, and good food. Would definitely stop by again when we're in Placerville!
