    Sundae with syrup
    Mercedes Y.

    My friends & I had the girls getaway trip last Thursday. After visiting the Young's & Villa Toscano vineyards in Shenandoah, Plymouth and Bella Grace wine tasting in Sutter Creek, we called the day. We proceeded checking in at the Hotel Sutter to stay overnight. It was our first time staying here in Sutter Creek. The hotel and restaurant have a charming old town vibe. We did not have any reservation on Thursday night. We got the table by the window for four of us. The restaurant looked cozy to unwind after our long day driving from San Francisco and visiting vineyards. Our server was Robert. He brought us cold glasses of water as it was a hot day. He opened our bottle of red wine that a friend brought from home. He was helpful answering our questions about the menu. We ordered Watermelon Fresca Salad, Crab Prawn Louie and Bacon Jam Burger that Robert recommended. The food was served promptly. We started eating as we were hungry and enjoying the food. Robert was thoughtful, attentive and sweet and making sure our table had all we needed. We said the burger was moist and delicious. The way each ordered was absolutely delicious until one friend who was 1/3 eating her Crab Prawn Louie salad discovered a blond strand hair sitting on the plate. She notified Robert and he took her plate. He said he will remove the salad from the bill. I shared my fries with my friend as the burger was filling me up. Later Robert gave our friend a sundae dessert and she shared it with us. The bill came and as promised by Robert my friend was not charged. She gave him a good tip though. The service and ambiance were lovely. If we are visiting Sutter Creek, we would be happy to return again.

    Ice tea!!!

    What a great spot!!! We were seated right away & given ice cold water which was fantastic on this hot day!!!! We ordered ice tea as well & it was freshly brewed. Also, came in a mason jar which I LOVE!!!! My daughter & I decided 2 split an order of their Brussel sprouts (w/ lemon aioli, bacon & Parmesan) & the ultimate BLAT!!! The BLAT came on toasted sliced sourdough, w/ a garlic aioli lettuce, tomato, avocado, & SPROUTS!!! I LOVE SPROUTS on sammiches!!! It also came w/ French fries. The brussel sprouts was a huge amount & it was garlicky!!!! Delish!!! The BLAT had this freshness thanks 2 the produce especially the tomato!!! The French fries needed seasoning & wished they were a little more crispy, but still a decent fry. The ambiance was perfect 4 the daytime, had a tiny light on the table & the chairs were comfy. My coworker suggested this spot & it was a great recommendation!!!!

    December 11, 2025 - Sutter Creek, CA Stepping inside feels like taking a step back in time--the ambiance hits you right away. We did have to wait a few minutes before being greeted, but it was early and lunch service seemed to be just getting underway. We ordered the French Dip to share, and for an extra $5 they plated it as two full meals, which I always appreciate. They also had some festive specialty cocktails, so I tried the Jack Frost mule. It came out a beautiful blue, was nicely ginger-forward, and absolutely delicious. The French Dip was very good as well--the bread was soft, and the meat was tender. Overall, it was a relaxed and enjoyable lunch, and we'd happily stop in again.

    The Sutter Hotel had a NYE four course meal to ring in the New Year with a beautiful singer tribute to 1957, cost $79 each. I had the shrimp scampi and my husband had the chicken both dishes were superb!! We started with the shrimp cocktail each and the split pea soup and finished with the Upside down pineapple cake. It was a huge piece. I couldn't eat all of mine. The singer had a beautiful voice, she looked so elegant and it was a tribute to 1957. They gave you a card to answer trivia questions from 1957. 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. We live in Sparks, NV so it was nice to get out of town and do something different.

    My husband and I were celebrating one of our several anniversaries and didn't want to go to Sacramento for the evening. 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!

    Arancino
    Mark T.

    After a day tasting fantastic wines from the region, I needed a meal to soak up the Jesus juice flowing through my body. This historic hotel/restaurant was a short walk from my Inn. It definitely has a gold rush vibe (minus the soiled doves). The menu is broad and includes Italian, American, Asian, and Southwest dishes. I ordered the aroncini appetizer and the bacon jam burger with rosemary garlic tots. I can't pass on tots. The bacon jam was rich which definitely elevated the burger. When it came the the aroncini, the sauce was the star--very delicious. I could've licked the plate. The waitress was attentive enough that I didn't shame myself by doing that, though. I can't guarantee I won't on the next visit.

    History
    Cheryl C.

    Very neat old town and this restaurant felt like history walking in. We made reservations and glad we did as it was very busy and the World Series was on the bar tv making it loud. Great menu with a lot of variety to satisfy most and reasonably priced. Also kid friendly as there were a few in attendance. Not a romantic spot due to the loudness though. I opted for a nice starter salad with steak and was pleasantly surprised by the size and it was a nice tender cut. My friends ordered salads and coconut shrimp and were equally pleased. They had some nice drinks and I opted for an Aperol plunge which had a small split in it, very refreshing after a day of wine tasting. They have outside seating on an upstairs balcony that would be fun next time in town!

    Great experience! Both atmosphere & bar tender, Brandon was awesome, even gave us a tour of the super cool speak easy, who knew! Will definitely be back to visit especially for the pretzel & burger as usual & now the speak easy is a must!!

    Shrimp and Crab Louie
    Mike H.

    First off, it's a really cool place with a nice atmosphere. I had the Crab and Shrimp Louie and I really liked it. The dressing is very unusual for a Louie but I like it. I don't know what spice is in it but it's flavorful. My wife had the Salmon burger and really enjoyed it. Excellent flavor. Our friend had the Southwest Salad, and she said that it was good. Tons of salad! Our server was a very nice man, but he was by himself. There was a young lady that I think was supposed to help him with drinks, but you had to ask her for refills. Nice young lady but not properly trained. I blame the lack of service and the training on management.

    Brisket hash
    Marilyn G.

    Stopped by Hotel Sutter in Sutter Creek for brunch after the Barbera Festival in Plymouth. The hotel and restaurant have such a charming old-town vibe -definitely a cozy spot to unwind after a busy weekend. Our server was great--friendly, attentive, and helpful when we had questions about the menu. I ended up ordering the brisket hash, which wasn't quite what I expected. I've had a version at a local spot in Reno that used cubed potatoes and chunks of brisket, but this version came with shredded hash browns and shredded brisket, topped with eggs and a pretty vinegary BBQ sauce. I had asked for light sauce, but it was still a bit overpowering for me. In hindsight, I should've asked for it on the side. The dish just didn't hit the mark for me personally, and I wouldn't order it again. That said, the service and ambiance were lovely, and I'd definitely come back to try something else on the menu. I think there's still potential here, it just wasn't the right dish for me this time around.

    Tofu Asian salad
    Moe D.

    Had such good meal a couple of days ago decided to go back for dinner! My Asian tofu salad was amazing and a Aperol plunge hit the spot! This salad was full of flavor and filling. Lots of yummy ingredients like edamame, and watermelon radish, avocado+++. Love it!

    Chimichurri tri-tip shave tater tots
    Priscilla W.

    While visiting out of town I made reservations for friend and I to visit this restaurant we had been admiring it since planning our trip. It's nestled in the small town of Sutter Creek and it feels the old time feel of the time. The restaurant as a bar and you are quickly greeted once you enter. We were seated by window doors that were opened to the evening breeze. We quickly made our selection and I had a glass of sparkling wine. The menu has many options. However I was really interested in there prime rib however it's only served on the weekends. I settled with ordering a chimichurri tri-tip shaved tater tot as my appetizer with the side salad. The tater tots had a really great flavor. The chimichurri sauce was not overpowering and the potatoes came out very crispy. The side salad was a perfect side and the vinaigrette was the perfect addition. When my entree came which included a chimichurri glazed salmon with mixed vegetables and a loaded baked potato my table was full! The salmon was perfectly cooked and light and flaky. The baked potato was okay. With the evening still being young and the meal so incredible we also settled on trying dessert. I went for the apple crisp with ice cream which was really good and tasted homemade. Overall I had a really great experience and our server gave us good recommendations for a nightcap at the Speakeasy bar not far from us.

    We recently visited Element in Sutter Creek for a special occasion and ended up giving it mixed…read morereviews. The mimosas were fantastic and at $6, honestly a steal. They kept them coming once we asked, and they were delicious every time. But we had to keep asking, and at one point, we almost gave up. That said, the service was pretty underwhelming, especially since the restaurant wasn't busy. We waited close to 20 minutes before getting our first drinks, even water. We had noted a special occasion on our reservation, but there wasn't really anything that made it feel acknowledged or special. We shared the skillet, and unfortunately it was extremely soggy. We literally poured liquid out of it multiple times. On the flip side, the lemon poppyseed waffle was a solid 10/10 and definitely the standout food item for us. I'm giving 3 stars because there's clearly potential here. The drinks were great, the waffle was amazing, and I do think this place could easily be a 5-star experience with more attentive service and a little more consistency in the kitchen. We'll definitely give it another try.

    In short: -Cute…read morelittle restaurant attached to a hotel -Food was okay - hit or miss. -Service was not great. - parking very limited- 6 spot? And technically only for hotel guests. I was excited to try this place as I was in town for a wedding and it had good reviews. It has potential but unfortunately today was a let down. My vegan friend had gone the night before and enjoyed her peanut noodle bowl with tofu! So that's good apparently) So we had high hopes but when we went today before 10am they were out of black beans for the one vegan option for my friend and didn't offer to make it without or anything it was painful to watch and to eat in front of her. Lattes looked good. My boyfriend is not picky but said the house coffee was average and got the All Sutter Creek- bacon eggs and toast and it just looked sad. Bacon was burnt, wheat toast was small and looked like cheap wonderbread. Eggs were fine but nothing better then we have at home he said. I got the Handford Benedict and it looked good but tasted strange. I didn't like the hollandaise sauce, it was tangy. Eggs were cooked well and potatoes were good, but overall with prosciutt ( meh), steamed unseasoned spinach and goat cheese made it too tangy. Hot sauce made it edible. French toast looked yummy with a nice amount of fruit on top and my friend seemed to enjoy it. I don't think I'd come back since the food is so unpredictable. A few things to fix - the bench seat wobbled whenever anyone moved at the other end, and the hot sauce wooden cap needs to be glued on! - it keep turning and comes off and gets glue in peoples food and looks gross underneath. I hope this helps you guys improve.
