    Teriyaki Burger with Sweet Potato Fries
    Shaguna W.

    A nice diner with a good menu. Service is exceptional. Our server was quick and checked just enough to ensure we had all we needed. Menu had a variety of sandwiches, burgers, some salads and a lot of snacks. Had the pulled pork quesadilla- good pork. My husband enjoyed it a lot. The teriyaki burger which was good. A bit overcooked but flavorful. Cabo Cobb Salad was light a flavorful. Also had a yummy, thick chocolate shake! The patio dining was great. Lots of space. A variety of different types of seating and large fans to circulate the air. A great place for a casual dine.

    Coffee cake raspberry yummm this coffee cake was an option with toast or biscuit or coffee cake

    It was a very chilly Sunday morning after J Vineyards' Christmas party the night before, and we slept through our complimentary breakfast at our hotel lol So I checked my trusty Yelp app to see what looks good with good reviews, and bing bada boom, KC's American Kitchen, so the decision was made. The ambience here has a diner vibe, with lots of old Hollywood pictures and memorabilia. Service was prompt and came with a smile. I ordered the bacon, avocado with pepper jack cheese omelette. Hubby ordered over-easy eggs with maple sausage and a biscuit. Hubby loved the maple sausages, plus his perfectly cooked over-easy eggs, and the biscuit was darn tasty. He also ordered a mocha and loved it all. My omelet was very good, not chintzy with the cheese or the bacon, the bread option included this raspberry coffee cake and thank you very much delish. Next time I'm in the neighborhood, and quite frankly, I come to Windsor often, if I want breakfast, I'm coming here. Cheers, my friends SYOY December 8, 2025

    We came out early on a cold, rainy weekday morning. We had our little dog, so we sat on the patio, but found the outdoor space to be warm and actually comfortable even though the weather was not. I ordered one of the potato pancake meals: "loaded potato pancake" on the menu. I've got to say I think I would've been happier with just the side of hashbrowns. I was hoping that my order would've been nice and crispy, but sadly it wasn't. I wasn't too impressed with the potato pancakes. The bacon was tasty, but really chewy. I'm a crisp bacon type of gal. My husband ordered the waffle and it was absolutely delicious. The flavor was so yummy. My potato pancakes came with a choice of bread and I decided I would choose the biscuit. Big mistake. It was super weird flavored. It was a drop biscuit, not a traditional biscuit. I flagged down a server and she graciously, and cheerfully took the biscuit back and brought me rye toast. If we ever come back, it would be for the waffle alone, and that's the only reason why I gave it three stars.

    We rolled in ~16 deep without a reservation and they handled us like pros! The food was wonderful, and the service was even better! I ordered a "I love animals" burger, and my daughter ordered a "sassy waitress" sandwich. Both were well prepared, but what really impressed me was that they had our orders in quickly, and we were all eating in ~15 minutes time. They split the parties/checks up perfectly, and they were on top of drinks and requests the entire time. The ambiance is Americana/diner, well curated and maintained. The owner clearly takes good care of their restaurant as well as their employees. :)

    California Eggs Benedict.
    Angela I.

    Just went here yet again for brunch and delicious as always! Had a short wait for a table since it was around 11:15 am and they were super busy. Fast, friendly service and good food. Always love it here at KC's! We got the eggs Benedict Blackstone and the California Eggs Benedict. Both yummy and satisfying:-) Busy, lively atmosphere.

    Hillbilly Benedict - biscuit, sausage patty, egg, sausage gravy
    Monica F.

    Been here a few times for lunch and have always had a pretty good experience. Yesterday the husband and I decided to try their breakfast offerings. The restaurant was packed on a busy Saturday morning but we were able to snag a table inside. I love their outdoor covered patio, they have a great fire pit out there. They have a wide breakfast offering with menu items that are very unique. My husband decided on the Hillbilly Benedict (biscuit, sausage patty, egg, and sausage gravy) and I went for the Big Boss Benedict (English muffin, ham, avocado, egg, and hollandaise). Both were served with county potatoes (hashbrowns or fruit are also options). The food was delicious, however my poached eggs were way overcooked which was a big disappointment as I love a runny egg. The hollandaise was a tad thin but had great flavor. My husband loved his meal and cleared his plate. Service was attentive and friendly throughout. The ambiance is fun with lots of decor to look at. We live in Santa Rosa so this place isn't super close but it will definitely be a top pick when we're in the area.

    Meatloaf sandwich
    Cabrina R.

    I want to love this place! I love the ambiance, and always, the service is great! The location is lovely! But I'm striking out on the food. Once I ordered the meatloaf sandwich; it was beautiful presentation but it was dry and without flavor. It's served open face, no sauce on the bread, mashed potato's grilled onions and a BBQ sauce drizzle... each layer is dry and flavorless. Even the grilled onions don't have any flavor. The only flavor was from the BBQ sauce garnish. Today, I tried the Steak and Bleu ( tri-tip and Bleu cheese) sandwich, it comes with grilled onions again it was dry and flavorless; maybe some aioli? Or some seasoning? The tri tip was well done and then reheated in a flat grill surface from the looks of the meat. Again it is great presentation, fantastic service, but the food is bland, REALLY bland; I have tried twice in the last month.. I am afraid I won't be back, which really is unfortunate, I really wanted to love it!

    Sourdough Dave Burger
    Donald K.

    Got a sourdough burger and got thru eating half and found a pube under my burger and tangled up in the onions. Pretty gross , I thought I was going to throw up after seeing it. Definitely last time I give them a chance.

    Poiche Garden Burger Bendedict
    Elizabeth S.

    Brunch anyone? A wonderful dining exoerience at KC's American Grill on the Town Green. I must say, the brunch was absolutely fabulous. The mimosas were perfectly mixed, the Poiche Garden Burger Benedict was delectable, and the pancakes were the perfect sweet touch to round out the meal. A perfect location for a delicious brunch experience in a charming setting. Perk: dog friendly

    When you walk into this restaurant, you are thrown back into time. The decorations are very fun, nostalgic and give this restaurant a lot of character. There are so many fun-loving phrases on these pictures that adorn the whole restaurant! The restaurant has both inside and outside seating. The outside seating is covered, and there are heat lamps to keep you warm. Service was super friendly, attentive, patient, and made our experience here enjoyable! Thank you again, Katherine P, for taking good care of us! [Descriptions per their own menu. Very clever names on some of their menu items] Pulled Pork Nachos: KCs house-made tortilla chips smothered in their famous BBQ pulled pork thats been kicked up with their amazing salsa plus grilled peppers, onions & melted cheeses. Added jalapeño (extra $1) for some spiciness, but they were too spicy at all. The pork was tender but juicy. "The chips did not get soggy but stayed crispy/crunchy." Baja Fish Tacos: Crispy Icelandic haddock in corn tortillas topped with crunchy slaw & served with our own Baja sauce on the side. Served with French fries & coleslaw. Our friend enjoyed the tacos and liked the coleslaw. Freedom Dip: A patriotic version of the classic French dip, American Style. Layers of lean roast beef, Swiss cheese & tomatoes on a soft Freedom roll with au jus. Served with Freedom Fries. Our friend really liked his sandwich a lot and enjoyed this twist on the classic sandwich! Big Fish Sandwich: This one didnt get away! Super sized, crispy haddock on a roll with lettuce, tomato, and tartar sauce. Very simple and no frills sandwich. Nice crunch on this fried haddock, which was firm but cooked well. My sandwich came with French Fries. The fries were nice and crispy on the edges but soft in the middle. Perfect! Hollywood Cobb Salad: A Hollywood tradition since 1942. Mixed salad greens topped with sliced chicken breast, avocado, Bleu cheese crumbles, bacon, tomato & chopped egg. Choice of dressings - Ranch, 1,000 Island, Bleu Cheese, Honey Mustard, or Basalmic Vinaigrette dressing. This was a fairly large and tasty salad. The ingredients were fresh and delicious. The Cilantro Mango dressing was very delicious! The portion size was pretty good on all the things we ordered. My only complaint would be that it was smoky in the restaurant. It was like the kitchen vent/exhaust fan was not working that well. It was coming from the cooks making all the delicious food for us diners or takeout. Great ambiance, service, and food! Next time we are in the area, we will definitely return to try some of their other items!

    I Love Animals burger
    Diana C.

    Stopped here again on another Roadtrip. Hubby had his usual "I Love Animals" burger and I had the BLT. AWESOME service from Keaton. YOU ROCK!!! He should train everyone to be as friendly and efficient as he is. What a great personality! Love this place, we'll be back, had a great time!

All the while sitting on the covered patio overlooking a lovely pond/lake, green grass, fountain & watching a mother duck with her ducklings. Truly a hidden gem & my favorite restaurant. Well done Jimmy! It's perfect!

    ----------My Edit:-------------------…read more I'm revising my initial rating because, looking back, it was too harsh and didn't fairly capture the full experience. The service was genuinely top-notch, our young waiter was incredibly attentive, personable, and made us feel well taken care of. I also want to acknowledge owner Jimmy, who reached out to me this morning with genuine passion and concern for his restaurant. He clearly takes feedback seriously, and I respect that deeply. That said, the meal itself didn't quite land for me personally. But I see plenty of other reviews here raving about the food, so it may just come down to taste or an off night. Between the excellent service and Jimmy's dedication, I felt my original score was unfair. My goal was never to harm anyone's reputation, just to share my experience. To give a more balanced picture, I'm settling on a solid 3 stars. Thanks again, Jimmy, for your time and heart.

    So once a year for two weeks,Russian River Brewing becomes the beer mecca on the planet-for two…read moreweeks they release their triple IPA Pliny The Younger. People come from from all over the planet to fly in for a chance to be able to taste this amazing brew each year and this year,I decided to join them and go out to try and get my hands on Pliny The Younger. The release this year was from March 20th 2026 to April 2nd 2026. So 1st thing we had to do was decide which location we wanted to go to-They have a downtown Santa Rosa location and a much bigger location located in Windsor. I decided to go to Windsor because I was told the parking lot was much bigger and the dining area has a larger capacity-not sure if that's true but was good enough for me. We left Sacramento a bit after 6am and we arrived in Windsor around 830am. When we arrived,there was already a line of probably around 75-100 people. So we just grabbed our spot in line and we waited until they opened up the dining area at 11am-Hoping to get seated in the first wave. We were told before we went out there that if we were lucky the wait would be from 2-3 hours and if we were unlucky it could be up to 6 hours. Well I can really explain it but the somehow the time flew by-not sure if it was the people we were in line with,who were all in the best of moods or if it was just the anticipation of doing something really fun. They were true pros the way they had the line setup-totally organized and they even have heat-lamps out there to keep everyone warm,while we waited. Well today was our lucky day because my buddy and I got seated in the first wave. The dining area was really big with so many table options,multiple rooms for seating available and they even had a bar area and an area where you could sit around a fireplace-like area. The wait staff was really awesome at this restaurant-each person working was even nicer than the next. How it works during Younger release event is like this. -They give you a wristband with 3 numbered pull tabs on it that allows each customer to get 3 pours and then at the end of their meal we are allowed to buy 3 bottles of the highly coveted release Pliny The Younger. The price point for these beers were $6.75 for each pour and around $13.00 for each take home bottle. While I was there I also had a taste of Blind Pig and Tempo Change-those were like $1.25 each for a tasting of those two beers. One thing I didn't quite have a scope of before going to this event in person was the high quality of food offered at Russian River Brewing. I made a double mistake of eating while I was in line and also making plans to eat at another place after this event. So I missed out on really diving into their pretty impressive offerings of food.I will for sure be doing that on my next visit-they had darn near everything you would expect a brewery to offer and it all looked so delicious. Well let's talk about why I was here-Pliny The Younger. I am 100% an IPA fan-it's always my beer of choice-So Pliny the Younger being a Triple IPA-I knew I was going to enjoy it.This beer historically is rated near 100 every year and this years release didn't disappoint.It was the smoothest triple I've ever had the pleasure of drinking and I've had more than a few in my day. This was the best Triple IPA I've ever had. Final thought-Was the experience worth it and would I do it again? Yes & Yes-my only regret is that I didn't do this many years ago when I first heard about it.I do plan on making this an annual pilgrimage.

    I came here after stopping at Armstrong Redwoods to enjoy a nice glass of beer and some food but…read moreunfortunately my expectations were not met. The beer, as always, was great. However I ordered their Pliny fries which had a pool of oil the bottom of the bowl. I wasn't a fan of the flavor combo and the pickled jalapeños lacked flavor. I feel like pepperoncinis would have been a better fit for this dish. My friend got the burger and fries and said the burger was good and flavorful but that the fries were also very oily and lacked flavor. I appreciated that they saw us at the indoor bar with our pup. I'll definitely come back for the beer and try and give some of their other dishes a go.
