The service was great and the dining room was wonderful. Quiet and welcoming. Now the quality and taste. The pasta was just not quite done. The sauce and linguine were lukewarm and the shrimp was overdone and crunchy (they were not fried shrimp). The sauce was very good but served lukewarm. My Wife ordered the fish and chips. The fish was not seasoned prior to cooking. The crust was very good but the fish was tasteless. There was salt on the table but this does not replace seasoning before cooking. Malt vinegar might have helped but was not provided. I was torn between the pasta which I love and steak. The lone wolf is a steak house and should have went with the steak to see how it stacked up. This was our first time dining at the Lone Wolf, there might be a second to try the steak. Some would say. Why did I not address this at the restaurant. Well addressing the quality of food when we dine out ruins a good evening and I don't like to do that. I am not supper picky. I like simple dishes prepared well. I do not like food that is under/over cooked. I like my hot food hot and cold food cold. This is not nit picking, but basic food service. If the management reads this my review is to be informative regarding my visit, not being overly critical and would like it viewed as such. If I have a great experience I love to tip well and write a review focusing on what I I thought made it a great visit Thanks and have a great day

The reviews made it a quick decision to head over to Teresa's Place! As soon as we entered, the staff placed us in a quiet area that made me feel "at home". Servers explained the menu and specials promptly. Warm fresh bread was a perfect starter since we had just enjoyed wine tasting. We ordered the lasagna and chicken D'Aglio. I chose a pesto sauce for my pasta. Their entrees as filling, as these come with minestrone soup, bread, and salad. I couldn't get enough of the croutons, dressing, and garbanzo beans with the fresh, crisp salad! When you're here, make sure to walk around inside to admire the decor and read their family's rich history, including photos with the Pope St. John Paul II. I enjoyed reading a bit of Italy geography and history on the dining table place mat too! This is a big restaurant with plenty of tables, especially ideal for bigger parties like family gatherings. There's so much to see and enjoy while you wait for your food! When I boxed up my leftovers, one of the staff came to me and helped me scrape the creamy, garlic and olive oil sauce from the chicken dish and scrape the pesto from the bottom of the pasta dish into my to-go box. This is the type of personal service I love and appreciate from family-owned restaurants! I'm glad we came across this lovely restaurant with wonderful staff and authentic, delicious Italian food!

Jackson, California. Population: sleepy. Streets: winding like drunk snakes slithering off into the…read moreSierra foothills. My phone? Dead--stone cold, digital corpse. I was stranded, hungry, gut gnawing itself in some Dantean ring of small-town purgatory, when out of the fluorescent chaos of a Raley's supermarket, a Gen Z angel with Wi-Fi wings took pity on me. Her phone pulsed like the North Star and she pointed me down to salvation: Teresa's Place. By God, I arrived. The sun was bleeding out across the horizon, Main Street slipping into shadow, and there it was: a glowing sign like a neon Eucharist. Parking lot across the street. The doorway pulled me in like a vacuum cleaner from 1952. Inside: dim red tones, white lights surgical and holy, Brooklyn noir under an Amador County sky. Louie's Restaurant vibes--but Sollozzo ain't getting shot here, sweetheart. No: this is Jackson. This is love. The service? Think grandma with a cigarette in one hand and a stopwatch in the other--warm but brisk, like they've been running this joint since Prohibition and ain't about to let you slow them down. The Chianti comes in buckets. Jaegermeister on the dessert menu--yes, they're serious, yes, you're taking the shot, yes, Jesus himself approves. Now, the food. THE FOOD. It comes in cathedral portions, a medieval banquet dropped in your lap. My chicken parm? Christ Almighty, it was Everest under a landslide of marinara, parsley fresh as a spring fling, pasta al dente enough to play a banjo tune. Before that came minestrone, a salad with Thousand Island like some glorious church picnic of yesteryear, croutons snapping like gunfire. Bread and butter so fresh you want to slap someone. Then dessert: WALNUT PIE. Who makes walnut pie? Teresa's does. Whipped cream piled like the Alps. I licked the plate like a lunatic. Let's be clear: this is no bland Chili's with soul vacuum décor. This is a time machine, a love letter, a belly hug from the Old Country. Cozy, romantic, small-town crickets outside and Sinatra crooning in your bloodstream. And the kicker? The wall of dollars. A shrine of American greenbacks pinned with a tiny Italian flag, Grandma Teresa watching from the photo frame like a saint with marinara rosary beads. Each bill matched, money funneled to five local charities. You eat, you drink, you laugh, you sin, and you walk away knowing your gluttony just saved the world--or at least a piece of Amador County. Five out of five, no hesitation, no irony. Teresa's Place is the real deal, a mad holy Italian fever dream in a town you didn't even know existed. If North Beach has the flash, Jackson has the soul.

From the moment we walked in, the service was great ~ we ordered from the kids meal almost immediately, and they brought out a sippy cup and high chair within minutes. We ordered our entrees ~ I went with the Cheese Stuffed Shells and my husband the Spaghetti with hearty meat sauce and meatballs. We had yummy warm bread and olive oil/vinegar delivered to the table, and each entree came with a café salad or minestrone soup..so of course we went with both. The meal was fresh, comforting, and everything we needed and wanted for a quick stop to rest our bones for a nice meal on the road.

I found myself there for lunch one afternoon after about blowing all my cash at the slots. I had nothing to left in my pockets, except for some lint, an old paper clip, and my well used American Express card. Defeated, I called it quits and put a fried chicken sandwich and some tots on the plastic. After a chat with a friendly cashier, my food arrived in a few short minutes. Boy was I impressed! I didn't hit any jackpots at the slots, but I did with their tots! They gave me a mountain of those crispy, golden-brown, little nuggets. Each one was perfectly cooked and they came with plenty of ranch for dipping. The chicken sandwich was just as crispy, juicy in the middle, and full of fresh produce. The whole thing was only $13.00, so I couldn't be happier. Well, my pockets were empty, but my belly was full. Pacific Grill, you made me feel like a winner.

Neither of us were born yet so we had to use google. It was a fun thing to do. I'm so glad we took the opportunity to go to the Hotel and afterward we went downstairs to the speakeasy to ring in the New year in Sutter Creek.

Hotel Sutter Restaurant has been on my list of places to check out in our neck of the woods for a while. We for sure wanted a classy place that served cocktails, and Hotel Sutter fit the bill. Both of us were also craving a good craft burger, and from what I saw in other reviews, the burgers looked delicious. I made a reservation for us on OpenTable just in case, but since it was a weeknight I wasn't too concerned if we had walked in. We were seated nearly immediately, and our server cheerfully asked us what we wanted to drink besides good ole H2O. I was really glad we came to visit around Christmastime, since they were serving holiday cocktails and other beverages. I went with the partridge pear martini, while my husband went with the Santa's spiced cider. My martini was oh so delicious and perfectly strong, and I had a small sip of my husband's cider, which was refreshing with the perfect holiday-esque notes. We read a few mixed reviews on the apps, so went straight to the entrees instead. I chose the bacon jam burger and my husband chose the traveller whiskey burger. Both of us upgraded to the garlic rosemary seasoning. I went with fries and my husband went with tots. Honestly, we were glad that we didn't end up ordering an app, since the burgers themselves were pretty filling! We both asked for medium on the cook temp of our patties, and they delivered. The meat was perfectly juicy with a wonderful charred flavor. The bacon jam was so delicious, and the balsamic arugula paired perfectly with everything. My brioche bun was pillowy and yet did not fall apart with all the juices of the burger. I did not get a chance to try my husband's burger, but he stated that it was also top notch. My fries were piping hot, with a perfect dusting of garlic rosemary flavor and sprinkles of Parmesan cheese. I tried a tot and that was also delightfully crispy and flavorful. We asked for ranch and that went well with both sides. The ketchup was great as well. I loved the ambiance of the restaurant. Old buildings are always up my alley, and the rich history of Hotel Sutter can truly be felt simply by touching its brick walls (that is, if you believe in the spirit realm). I loved that each table had its own light, but the restaurant had the perfect dim setting for a classy date night. Our server was very friendly and attentive, and kept our waters refilled. We had a concern regarding the pricing of the cider on the bill vs on the menu and that was fixed immediately, with the rest of the staff notified for future reference. It was a tiny discrepancy, but one that we caught quickly and simply wanted to bring up. Hotel Sutter Restaurant is definitely on our places to return to in the future, and I'd love to sit on the balcony some other time and enjoy some brunch and mimosas. If you're looking for an excuse for date night or are just feeling fancy, definitely come relax, sip some delicious cocktails, and enjoy the delicious food Hotel Sutter Restaurant has to offer!

I was craving Japanese food last week and decided to finally try out Oko Sushi while waiting for my…read moretires to get rotated next door at America's Tire. My husband came along as well. I had scoured the reviews of this place and it *seemed* like the reviews had gone up. I am generally distrusting of Japanese restaurants in small towns, but I figured Oko Sushi would be worth a try. Our first visit unfortunately looks like it will be our last. We were pretty hungry and both ordered the dinner bento boxes. I got the salmon teriyaki with veggie tempura, while my husband got the chicken katsu with gyoza. The first red flag was seeing the extremely limited selections of the bento boxes. At other (better) Japanese restaurants, there are far more options to choose your sides from, such as shrimp tempura or even sashimi. Oko only had a California roll, gyoza, and veggie tempura to choose from. Fine, just small-town things I guess, but not really an excuse when you're the only Japanese restaurant in a pretty wide radius. However, what honestly annoyed us both was that neither the lunch nor the dinner bentos boxes came with miso soup, which is a standard appetizer, and our meals were still $19 each. I have never been to a Japanese restaurant that doesn't provide miso soup with their bento boxes (or any set menu items, for that matter). Anyway, on to the next part of my review. Now it pains me to write this section as the entree portions of our bento boxes were actually pretty well-executed. My husband enjoyed the breading and flavor of his katsu, and I enjoyed the tenderness and the crispy skin of my salmon teriyaki. The gyoza were pretty good as well, and I had plenty of tempura, which were nicely breaded. The California roll was fine. Nothing to write home about. The ginger was fine as well. Now the rice that came with our entree on the other hand was absolutely not it. I'm not sure how an Asian restaurant can mess up rice, but Oko did. The juxtaposition of mushy yet undercooked rice was so unappealing. We finished our rice as we hate wasting food, but it's been a long time (I'm talking years) since I've had rice this bad. Tell me how the sushi rice was perfectly fine while the rice for the entree was undercooked?? This goes to show that the restaurant doesn't use the same kind of rice for their entrees as their sushi, which if you go to a good Japanese restaurant, it should be Japanese rice for both sushi and regular rice bowls. The salad was also mid, and seemed to cater to the country folk who frequent this establishment. Upon finishing our meal, we were also asked if we wanted dessert right away. Not a thing with other authentic Japanese restaurants we've been to. Service was fine, but nothing to write home about again. The presentation overall was also not exactly refined. Everything was packed into the bento boxes, and we actually had to take our rice bowls off the bento boxes themselves to have more space to eat. The best part of our meal was enjoying the beautiful fish in the multiple salt-water tanks they had. At other Japanese restaurants, the staff usually have beautiful cuts of their sashimi being shown off through glass counters. Here, the view was blocked by yet another fish tank. I do not see myself returning to Oko Sushi. Unfortunate, but I do not wish to spend my money on subpar food. Do yourself a favor and drive to Sacramento (or even north Stockton) for far better Japanese food.

Again, the portions were generous and the sauces tasted good. But the chicken (breast meat) was tough and chewy. The white rice was clumpy and dried out. The fried rice was dry and lacked flavor. Given all the 5-star reviews, we may have just caught them on an off day?
