Stopped by Sutter Creek on our way to Volcano yesterday and decided to "give this restaurant a…read moreshot." My wife and I shared a special (smoked tri-tip sandwich). The sandwich was excellent along with enough fries for 2 teenage boys along with a pickle. A little pricey ($25) but there was plenty of food for both of us. Our server, I believe Jason, did a nice job in a packed restaurant at lunch.

Honestly, the onion rings were the best I've ever had! Overall, every dish is delicious and the ingredients are super fresh! The portions are huge but still reasonably priced! I always end up taking half home, such a great deal! I'll definitely be back!

Best burger in the area…read more It tastes just as good as it looks! Super juicy and flavorful, cooked to order and somehow the bun is sturdy enough not to fall apart when eating, which is rare to find in the juicy big burger business Definitely worth a trip out to beautiful Donner lake on old hwy 40, if not just for this burger

Okay, it had been awhile since I ate in the Truckee area. Quite a sticker shock for menu prices…read more Not really a guy who looks for a $28 wagyu beef smash burger and then have to add $1 for cheese. Just couldn't do it. Some ordered the pretzel bites, very good and the duck gravy poutine, also very good. Both were good choices and under $20 each. The location is great, right across from Donner Lake, but I just can't see myself returning based on the prices. Service was okay, food delivery was slow and our choices didn't come out together. Very little interaction from the service staff. Looks like they have a good bar and there were several people having drinks. If you don't mind the expense, give it a shot.

Walked in on Thursday night. Band playing, one person listening. Tried making small talk with the…read morebartender who has wanna be Elvis sideburns. I asked if he did Elvis impersonations. He said only big groups with 10,000 people or more. I told him my family is related to Elvis (which is true. My grandpa's grandpa and Elvis' grandpa were cousins. My mom's maiden name is Presley). He completely ignored me and walked off. Now, I don't expect anything whatsoever for my very very very very distant Elvis relation. But, it's sometimes a talking point. When he walked off, I just said, "Ok". He snapped, "I'm busy", looked down at his phone suddenly and walked out back. I love Sutter Creek and maybe he had a bad day since their business mustered up maybe 5 people on the night. But as long as he's there, I'll never be a patron

The venue is much larger than it looks like from the outside and friendly for both real locals and sacto alike. He's shorthanded and I think pretty stressed out at times. Someone with some capital could make this a real gold mine. I dropped by after doing some work in the mountains and it was jumping with some Chili peppers and Pearl Jam. The beer was solid, full wine selection but didn't try any.

We found parking on the back of the building. Upon walking in, we were a bit confused as to whether they were open or not. But the waitress came out finally and sat us at a nice table. We ordered the regular burger, the black garlic aioli burger and the big kids burger. Ok, I may have been starving- but it was great! The patties were actually made there instead of a frozen supermarket burger. Also the fries were tasty. Overall, far exceeded our expectations!

We ordered beer and walked down the street to order our pizza and bring it back. It was great to hang out and take our time while waiting for our son's next water polo game. They do a great job of keeping this place super clean. The vibe is very casual/college town - which fits since this the college is nearby! I would recommend this great place to anyone looking to stop in for a good drink and friendly barkeeper!

The food and drinks, however, were a little bit of a let down. -Margarita: 3/5. Didn't taste the tequila and was too tart. -Paloma: 5/5. Still great with the fresh grapefruit. -Calamari: 6/5. Still outstanding. HUGE portion of sliced calamari steak perfectly cooked with a horseradish forward cocktail sauce (love) and tartar sauce. So big was our shared appetizer AND my entree. -Classic Burger: 4/5. Sadly the burger was overcooked this time and so was dry. -Home-cut Fries: 7/5. OMG. These fries are outstanding and truly addictive. I will go back just to get these and make sure I can take the extras home bc again the portion is HUGE! Macduffs is rated high for a reason. Do yourself a favor and give them a try as soon as you can. We will def go back!

I ordered a burger and my wife ordered the fried chicken sandwich. Both were solid and the fried chicken sandwich was HUGE. Two full chicken breasts on the sandwich.

He cussed at the guests for turning the jukebox volume up a bit. He said there are hotel guests that paid for their room upstairs. First of all anyone who stays there on a busy night like that knows what they are getting themselves into. We are paying guests as well. Second the guests screaming for the game on were 10x louder then the music. We met some guests that were staying there and they were in a group text involving his comments about a certain ethnic group not leaving tips. I'm like ok. We tipped him well thank you but after that comment several of us walked out. I can assure you we won't be back there again.
