    Parking is kind of hit and miss near the entrance but you can always find a park nearby. Inside the tables were clean, music was playing, and customers seemed to be enjoying themselves. Food: I ordered The Cowboy which consisted of eggs, waffle, and chicken fried steak. Everything was hot including the waffle. So nice! The waffle was a slight bit crunchy on top but really soft otherwise and it was delicious! The chicken fried steak was very tender and the gravy wasn't bad but it could have used a bit more salt. The coffee was a bit mild for my liking. Service: When I walked in there was no signage so I stood for a few minutes without acknowledgement. Finally a young man with light brown hair approached and looked at me but walked right past. When he passed again I asked if I was supposed to seat myself? He looked off and muttered "yeah it's going to be a few minutes" then he walked off. It didn't answer my question so I continued to stand until another server invited me to sit at a vacant table. The same young man was observed tossing the food and bussing the table of a nearby customer who had gone to the restroom. His server came to the rescue however by making him a plate to go. My actual server Mary was nice and tended to my needs but it was a bit of a wait between being seated, getting drinks, and placing the order. Overall its a strong 4 rating that could have been a 5 with a little more attentiveness from staff. Definitely recommend though!

    At the risk of making this place even more popular, this is our favorite breakfast place in Solano County. My favorite, they make a darn good pot of hot English Breakfast tea, even though I could make it at home, this is so good! The wait isn't as long as it might seem when you first see the line of people waiting outside. It does move rather quickly. The service has always been excellent and efficient! The food is homestyle. Very good biscuits and gravy. Their bacon is really good too. For the decor, it is a little history spot. It's a historical location and they have all kinds of historical artifacts around as decor. It's really cute. One Friday night a month, they serve fish and chips for dinner. This is the only time they are open for dinner and it is worth it to mark the day in your calendar!

    Corned Beef Hash. Instead of eggs subbed grits
    Lil B.

    Service was GREAT!!! A short wait to be seated but for a weekend it wasn't bad at all. The chilaquiles were tasty - but for some reason my chorizo came in the side so I tossed it in top myself. There wasn't as much sauce as I am used to so it felt more like breakfast nachos. But the green salsa was really good. Hubby said the grits were a bit boring but he tried to doctor them up with various other things. They tasted ok to me - at least the texture and consistency was good IMO. I love some good bathroom humor. Saw the "get naked" sign and had to snap that pic! We would love to come back and see if we can get up to a 5 star review. We shall see. It was still tasty overall and a great experience!

    Sausage patties
    Susana L.

    Wanted to try it so we decided to make the trip. Got to sit down right away. It was really busy for a random Wednesday morning so I was hopeful. Food came out really good. We liked the crispiness of the sausage patties we got , I loved the French toast. Especially with my crazy French toast craving I been having. I was pleasantly surprised with the garlic rosemary potatoes, they were seasoned really well. Overall a very nice place and really good food. The only little hiccup was that the chicken for the country fried steak was really thick . It's usually thin but still finished it. Would be coming back if we are ever in the neighborhood to try different items on the menu

    Homemade Corned Beef Hash
    Darlene M.

    Found this restaurant on Yelp. We were in town for an early appointment on a Saturday morning. This restaurant was one place that was open for breakfast that wasn't a corporate chain restaurant. Our wait was short, less than five minutes. We sat at the bar since the restaurant was already pretty full. Service was good. Food was good. Portion size was good too. Most of all, the prices were beyond reasonable. I was pleasantly surprised! I ordered the homemade corned beef hash - enjoyed it much. We had a pleasant dining experience. We will definitely be back again. When we left the restaurant, there were many people waiting outside to be seated. This tells me this is a good brunch place that people are willing to wait for. It also tells me the earlier you go, the better. =)

    Had breakfast here with my mom and really enjoyed it. The atmosphere is super cozy and the menu has a good variety. We both ended up ordering the same thing so we didn't get to try a lot of dishes, but what we had was really good and felt like a fair value for the portion. Service was good and friendly. It's definitely a comfort-food breakfast spot. Not the best breakfast I've ever had, but solid and I'd definitely come back to try other things on the menu.

    pancakes
    Sriharsha A.

    Went on a Saturday morning and had about a 20 min wait. Cozy vibe with lots of historic decor. California omelet was solid. Hash browns were not crispy enough for my liking, and sourdough was not sour enough. French toast was amazing and would recommend! Service was great. They were friendly, quick, and they kept our coffee full. Prices were average. Parking was tricky near the restaurant, but there are free lots nearby that are a short walk away. Would come back just for the French toast!

    Eggs Benedict with huge side of bacon
    Jody W.

    Excellent service, humble n cute ambiance and the value for portions are huge! Highly recommend a visit for breakfast or lunch as the are up 9-1pm except Tuesdays. I had the blue bettyfrench toast with side of yummy bacon. My husband had the Dever omelette meal. I had to start off with my hot chocolate to die for!!!

    Chilaquiles!!! Nom nom
    Kristy R.

    First off, the place feels cozy and full of character. The food was amazing, I wanted to order like 3 things, so I'll have to come back. Food was killer, we had The cowboy, gravy was full of flavor, chiliquillas was bomb!!! But most importantly our server Martha was the kindest, most bubbly and very attentive. She brightened our day, I hope we did hers!!! Will definitely be coming back whenever we are in town again.

    If you're looking for that good old-fashioned American diner feel, this is the place. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with nostalgic Americana décor--think Route 66 signs that take you right back to the golden days. It's a smaller spot, so it may be a bit snug if you use a walker or wheelchair, but there's plenty of room for families or larger groups to sit together and enjoy a hearty meal. Plus, there's free street parking, which is always a nice bonus! The menu is exactly what you'd hope for--extensive and comforting. I went with the Denver-style omelet breakfast, and let me tell you, the portions are generous. I couldn't quite finish my potatoes, but if you're someone who likes to get their money's worth, you'll be pleased. They serve locally roasted coffee in large mugs, which is a nice touch. Though the coffee was a bit too acidic for my taste, it's great to see they support local roasters. Just be aware that with the large mugs, your coffee might cool off before you get a refill. All in all, it's clear this place is a neighborhood favorite--and for good reason. Great portions, friendly service, and that timeless diner charm. Perfect for a casual weekend breakfast or lunch with friends.

    Bloody Mary
    Amanda S.

    We went to eat on a busy Sunday and the wait was really long. They had people sitting by themselves at a six person table...weird. But the food was AMAZING! The Bloody Mary was a work of art. All of the food came out in great portions and the customer service was excellent. It was definitely worth the wait. We will definitely be back! I had the eggs Benedict and it was really delicious!

    Omelette, Heritage House Special with pancakes and BLT Bacon,Lettuce and Tomato with egg Sandwich.

    Stopped in here for breakfast and will definitely return. The service was fast and very friendly. The food was very, very good!!

    Ask the Community - Heritage House Cafe

    Whoever runs the DoorDash menu inside the store, can you please add hash browns as a selection for the type of potato? I know you can get hash browns in person but the DoorDash menu doesn't allow for that selection and only allows for country potato.

    Hi, we stopped doing hashbrowns because they get really greasy, but I will see what we can do. We got some negative reviews because of them.… 

    Do you serve/offer gluten-free pancakes, gluten-free waffles, or gluten-free French toast?

    Unfortunately not at this time

    Back Door Bistro, Vacaville: 2026 Jul 10 (4.29 of 5)…read more Ladies Gathering!! The service here is a 4.5 of 5. We had different servers who attended to us and they're both friendly and looked cheerful. We got there towards the end of Happy Hour and was presented with their Happy Hour menu. The menu is small, easy to read and has almost everything we'd want for that time of day - including the drinks. The food is a 'hit' or 'miss'. Here's my review: Drinks: Both the Arnold Palmer and the Cadillac Margarita were good. My lemonade tea wasn't overly sweet and I could definitely taste the lemonade. The pitcher of Cadillac Margarita looks innocent but may give someone a slow and powerful buzz if you're not used to the drink. (4.75 of 5) Charcuterie: This a complete appetizer board. Overall, there were some hits and misses, however, we agreed this is a well thought out appetizer board. (4 of 5) Crispy Brussels Sprouts: This is the best dish here, featuring deeply caramelized, dark golden-brown edges and a nutty, earthy flavor. Their Crispy Brussels Sprouts is also the best we've had. The seasoning is on-point, allowing the texture to show off its crackling, crunchy bite on the outside, contrasted by a tender, melt-in-your-mouth interior. (5 of 5) Seasonal Tacos: "Oh WOW!" The explosion of spicy and tangy flavours balanced by contrasting textures makes this dish "pop". (4.75 of 5) Beet Salad: The colours were lovely, but this beet salad was over-salted. The vibrant dish featuring beets as the main ingredient, balances the earthy sweetness with contrasting textures and flavours. If this wasn't too salty, it would have been more refreshing. (3.75 of 5) Coconut Lime Bouillabaisse (halibut, jasmine rice, spinach, snap pea, pickled shiitake mushroom, coconut lime broth, basil oil): Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought Bouillabaisse means seafood. The only seafood we noticed were chunks of halibut, which were delicious. This dish looks and tastes more like an elevated Thai soup dish that cost too much. (3.5 of 5) After walking in, we decided to sit outdoors because of the loud music that was playing. We're glad we did. The overhang on the veranda was well positioned with plants and flowers softening the cement walkway. The weather was pleasant - with a gentle breeze blowing down the corridor. Parking is easy if you arrive early enough. One last note: Back Door Bistro in Vacaville was featured on "Check, Please! Bay Area"

From entering the restaurant we were promptly greeted from the friendliest staff. We asked for outdoor seating in the little patio area to soak up some sun. Our waiter Austin promptly came to our table and suggested a few beers. Since I couldn't decide, I went for a flight to try a few. One of my favs was a sour too bad I can't remember the name. We got the Asian fries as an appetizer and they were delish ! Perfect crisp and toppings. We'll def be back when in the area. Great service from Austin ! Always checking up on us to see if we needed anything and enjoyed the small talk.

Because you can also major in BURGERS!!! I looked up the best burgers in Vacaville, and that was on the list. So off we go. We brought our dog as they are dog friendly,,,as long as YOUR dog is friendly. Outside seating is where we were at. It was a beautiful night, the ambiance was cool bar motif, beer cans as tables and front of a classic and a water fountain (not turned on) the FIFA was on TV that night and had the game playing outside. The food: The burgers were as advertised delicious, good meat fresh vegetables lettuce, tomatoes, real cheese yum yum. My wife had the Nachos she enjoyed them, as did I, mmm stolen Nachos from the wife's plate. I had the calamari, mine unfortunately was way overcooked, rubbery like a chew toy, had good flavor but it was rubber. If fresh calamari can be eaten raw, so it can be easily over cooked. But the burgers were worth the trip. Service; Top notch, our server noticed our bog, (hard to miss a Big dog) the brought us a dog plate (picture included) we had fun there lots of laughs and smiles. Great place come try it. And bring the kids and your dog

    10 out of 10 I would visit again!…read more Went here for a nice afternoon treat with my husband and daughters. From the time you enter to the time you leave there was nothing but good service. We sat in the middle of the floor at an open table with other families all around us, but in view of the ice-cream station for the person who was making sundaes. Our waitress was kind, very attentive to our refills and making sure we were satisfied with our menu selections. I tried the cheesesteak sandwich- it made to excellent perfection. Coming out on a Dutch Crunch roll, I expected the bread to be a bit hard, but to my surprise it was very nice and soft. Easy to bite and chew. The meat and melted cheese were very delicious. Onion rings on the side were cooked just right and crispy. No one in our party was disappointed. The ice-cream at the end was just enough to top off the experience. I'll say when visiting here, the prices are kind of high for just a night out, but well worth it. Paid a little over $150 for a family of four. I'd recommend you try this spot. It's got the Leatherby's feel but a whole different vibe.

    A California Classic That Lives Up to the Hype…read more Some places have history. Some places have incredible food. And every once in a while, you find a place that has both. Fentons Creamery is one of those rare gems. Walking into a restaurant that's been serving families for well over 100 years is an experience all by itself. You can feel the history the moment you walk through the doors. It's nostalgic without feeling outdated, and it's clear why generations of families have continued coming back. The restaurant itself is huge, incredibly clean, and has such a fun atmosphere. One of my favorite features was the massive spinning display showcasing all of their incredible ice cream creations. It's impossible to look at it without feeling like a kid again, and trying to decide what to order becomes the hardest part of the visit. We started with lunch, and it did not disappoint. I ordered the Triple-Decker Chicken Club, and it was enormous. Every layer was fresh, flavorful, and stacked high with quality ingredients. We upgraded to the seasoned curly fries, and that may have been the best decision of the meal. They were perfectly seasoned, incredibly crispy, and served with what tasted like freshly made house ranch that was absolutely outstanding. Honestly, the food alone would have made this restaurant worth visiting. Then came dessert... We ordered the Monster Brownie Sundae, and "monster" is no exaggeration. It arrived at the table looking like something out of a movie--towering scoops of ice cream, rich hot fudge cascading down the sides, whipped cream piled high, chopped nuts, and the classic cherry on top. The real star, though, was their famous Dutch Chocolate Chip ice cream. Without exaggeration, this was some of the best ice cream I've ever had--not just in California, but anywhere. The texture was unbelievably creamy, the chocolate flavor was rich without being overpowering, and the chocolate chips added the perfect bite. It's easy to understand why Fentons has earned such an incredible reputation over the last century. What made the entire experience even better was the staff. Every member of the wait team we interacted with was friendly, attentive, and genuinely seemed happy to be there. Great service can elevate a meal, and they absolutely did. Overall, this was one of those meals that reminds you why local institutions survive for generations. Amazing food, legendary ice cream, outstanding service, a fun family atmosphere, and memories made around the table. If you're anywhere near the area and love classic American diners or incredible homemade ice cream, Fentons Creamery belongs at the top of your list. Prices were a little steep, but it was definitely worth it because the portions were massive. We'll definitely be back and next time, we're saving even more room for dessert.

We were seated immediately, which I always appreciate. The space is pretty big with a modern feel, and there's plenty of parking out front (no circling the lot like a hawk -- love that). Even though they gave us the lunch menu, we went à la carte. Ordered: tandoori chicken, butter chicken, coconut shrimp, butter naan, and rice -- all medium spice where applicable. The tandoori chicken was tender and well seasoned -- no dry chicken nonsense here. The butter chicken was exactly what you want it to be: rich, creamy, tomato-forward, and comforting. But the one that caught me off guard a bit was the coconut shrimp -- creamy, slightly sweet, and a little more mild than "medium" heat, probably because of the coconut milk, but still really good. And listen... the butter naan? Fresh, warm, and absolutely necessary. Both the butter chicken and coconut shrimp were made for dipping. No shame in wiping those plates clean. Service was great. Staff was kind, checked in on us without hovering, and kept our water filled without us needing to flag anyone down. Overall -- easy, enjoyable lunch. Good food, good service, no complaints.

    We tried the soft shell crab with crispy noodles, crispy chicken fried rice and thai iced tea…read more Soft shell crab with crispy noodles - 10/10, soft shell crab was fried to perfection and on top of a bed of dried crispy noodles. the amount of crispy noodles was a little too much in my opinion, but paired well with the sauce it came with. the sauce was refreshingly herbaceous and had a nice kick to it. Crispy chicken fried rice - 10/10, chicken was juicy and super crispy, paired with two different sauces (1) some sort of creamy mayo aioli (2) sweet chili sauce; i personally preferred the sweet chili sauce. The rice itself was subtle, with a slight soy sauce flavor; definitely allowed the chicken to shine. Thai iced tea - 8/10, good thai tea. not too sweet, stronger on the tea side. Staff were friendly and food came out quickly. The restaurant is decent in size (has both outside and indoor seating), and had a modern, clean look. Overall, food was delicious and would definitely come back. (extra note: the menu has some interesting items that I'm looking forward to trying, definitely unique in comparison to other thai restaurants)

    Showed up on a Wednesday for lunch. Got the papaya salad (4/10), crispy pork belly (7/10) and the…read moredrunken noodles (7/10). The food was decent and edible but I wasn't particularly impressed. Their drinks were also not that great or their water was so bad I couldn't drink it. Service was adequate. They served us but there was some confusion about them "missing items" but were somehow not able to accommodate for it? It was strange. Overall, it was okay. Try at your own expense.

    Tara Olson was our waitress 6-26-26, by far the best service I ever had since going there for…read more15+yrs. She was very attentive with the starter drinks, offering water, the salad was the greenest it's been in years. Bread was soft and delicious. She made some good recommendations to eat. No complaints at all with the service. Hoping to see more employees like her in the future.

    This is a 4 star restaurant with 5 stars for nostalgia and loyalty…read more I remember as a kid growing up in Fairfield and then Richmond,there was this special restaurant that had the biggest steaks ever and buffalo heads on the walls. Whenever we would go there,it was always a great happy dining experience and being in Dixon,it felt like a different world than the places in the Bay Area. As I grew up and moved to Sacramento area,the restaurant took on a much bigger meaning,it was my father's favorite spot to eat and it has always been the halfway point for my relatives who live in the bay and myself in Sacramento whenever we wanted to meet up for dinner. So yes I will always love Cattlemen's in Dixon for the memories alone. Let's talk about this particular recent visit. I made a reservation for a party of 9 at 6p. The parking at this location is plentiful as they have their own lot and even during its busiest times,there are always spaces available. When we arrived it was crazy busy and they told us it was going to be a bit for our table as they were running behind,so we headed to the bar to hang out and wait for our table. The wait ended up being over an hour after our reservation before we finally got our table. I was not thrilled at this but I was trying to make the best of a not perfect start to our dinner. The management and wait staff was very apologetic for the unexpected wait,which I appreciated. By the time we sat down we were ready to order immediately after having so much time to look at the menu while in the bar. In our family the most popular thing to order is the Original Steak Dinner for Two. We usually pair up with someone at the table and coordinate our order in that way. What that order gives you is a choice of 1 appetizer -Tumbleweed Onions -Artichoke Cheese Dip -Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail. On a night like tonight where we have multiple people ordering this,all the appetizers eventually get ordered and we kind of just share them all. Personally my favorite is the Artichoke Cheese Dip. Then for the Entree each of you get to choose one of the following -9 ounce Prime Rib -6 ounce Filet Mignon -Half Rack or Pork Ribs -14 ounce NY Strip Steak -Grilled Salmon -Steak and Shrimp Scampi My personal favorite here is always the 14 ounce NY Strip. And finally we get to pick one of 3 desserts. -Deep Fried Apple Pie -Cowpie Brownie Sundae -Pete's Pan Cookie My personal favorite is the Brownie Sundae but I'm usually so stuffed,I generally have to take my dessert home,so I almost always select the Deep Fried Apple Pie as it reheats the best at home. This order for two runs $84.99. I find it to be a pretty good value for all that you get. I failed to mention with this order we also get their yummy bread service,unlimited salad and also baked beans. Once the food arrived,it was all very enjoyable,I've always been a fan of their steaks and this visit was no different-very juicy and tasty and cooked to a perfect medium rare. The manager stepped up and comped all the appetizers on our bill to make up for the one-hour delay-their team is always so good at taking care of their customers. Overall,even with the rocky start,we had a very enjoyable dinner experience and look forward to the next time we are able to get out to Dixon to have some Cattlemen's again.

    "Princess" Christina here to edit her review!…read more I wanted to edit my review to explain sort of what was originally posted trying to make it short. First before being seated we were approached by a female server who was angry we were seated at her table to enjoy waters before being taken downstairs to the show. She told us we're r not allowed to sit there even though the host placed us there. A whole thing... we moved for her. I was there for my birthday, husband Venmo 20$ to play two songs and do a shout out ( owner attacks me in my original review insinuating that I am an entitled princess demanding a happy bday song ( which I didn't request) and that we stormed out after an hour. We stayed till almost 10:30 show ends at 11. We asked for 2 songs that were fun classics everyone could sing along to since the playing of "wet a** P***y" wasn't exactly bumping in the club and just made the establishment even more grimy than it already was! We got outbid, not knowing exactly how dueling piano bars r ran. Now we do and we will never go back. We just wanted a shout out which coulda been said in 2 seconds... is that why you got a 1 star? No. The food was also extremely gross. Only dish with eating was the pasta. What salad comes with no lettuce lol? Weird whatever? I didn't order it. My original review complemented some of the songs and some other things but it was also pointing out the crappy parts like asking for more money mid song. I hate places that seem like they r begging for money. It's just not my vibe. And while this place is "ALWAYS sold out" how many are return customers!? And why are the restaurants reviews at 2 stars? Because it's a 1 star establishment. I have never had two reviews deleted before so yes... my bad... I take full accountability that I ASSUMED your establishment had anything to do with a removed review and it didn't. But i did not delete it myself. Jason m the pianist had asked at one point for me to remove it and I said I would not but I understand the concern. He then brought up health issues and played on my empathy and my love for God then came back and told me how I was rude and how Jesus was not always nice so he justified Jason and himself don't have to be nice to me. My review was unfortunately taken personally by these two men...when I did not say anything personal. The owner though... got personal with me over my expression of why this place was a 1 star ( for me ) and silently attacked my character. Thank the lord for my husband. M. C. Who came to bat like a pro for me. I didn't even ask him to, but he mentioned my military career and other services to this country that in otherworldly do not take the title of "princess". ESPECIALLY the paths I have gone down! I hope this and his review make you think twice about how you speak to people before getting upset over a 1 star review! It's the internet I wasn't being a bully I was explaining so other who read are aware of what they r stepping into. A 1 star bar and restaurant venue who ask for a lot of money don't treat their customers with much respect in person and over the internet... and don't reimburse people for items they don't receive or accidentally got charged for. It's not hard to DO the right thing. And "being a good person" doesn't mean I have to delete a review for your bar. I am a good person. I'd like to say proudly... a bit better of a person than you Jason. I wish you luck! My first review below: edited review above My review was deleted don't know why. Who whole establishment was a rip off. And having my review deleted makes this so much worse off and corrupt. Very interesting. I understand piano bars r based off tips... but this was gross and like begging for more money every song that played. My request was never played.. while I was there... and ( they reached out o tell me they eventually did) (By the way other ppl reviews they were reimbursed for not playing their song but mine wasn't) While some songs were fun... the music selection was truly trash... I won't go back and I'll never reccomend. No one at my table would ever go back. The food was horrid old dry and gross tasting also.

    According to the staff who served us dinner upstairs beforehand, this was a real speakeasy in the…read more1920's with secret tunnels and such. They really take pride in its history, and I love that they share these interesting tidbits with visitors. The "reservations only" rule here is kind of odd, especially cuz this place doesn't seem to really get packed, even on a Saturday night. But it worked out for us, cuz my large group was able to enjoy our time together without huge, crazy, crowds like you get in SF, Vegas, or even Texas dueling piano venues. And it was still lively enough around 10-11pm. They even provided fun props at the tables for guests (tambourines and fedoras!). You can order food and drinks down here from the restaurant menu, but of course, just like the restaurant, beware they may be out of items. I enjoyed some of the molten lava cake for dessert. They were out of vanilla ice cream, but a scoop of the strawberry flavor was more to my liking anyway. And of course, just like at the restaurant upstairs, I absolutely loved the drink offerings here... so many tasty concoctions, especially if you like fruity cocktails. We requested a bunch of songs throughout the night, and they played most of them. They were honest about what they didn't know or tried to learn it on the spot (says my musician bf), so I appreciate the effort. Be sure to tip for the awesome range of songs they play for the crowd (mainly rock, rnb, pop, and country). The two pianists (and one drummer) were fun and friendly, and did their best to keep the slowly shrinking crowd entertained. I've never seen a dueling piano bar empty before closing time, especially when closing time is early for a Saturday, but the entire place was deserted by 11:45pm... except my group, of course, which stayed for the last 15 minutes. Compared to other venues I've been to, it wasn't as lively a crowd here at Makse, yet it was kinda what I'd expect in Vacaville... or as my bf calls it, Vodkaville :D
