It all comes in fizzio/coupe glasses on a tower. I also ordered an extra drink (Pink Cloud) and dessert (Lemon Crumb Cake). Everything was so good! The presentation was beautiful. The cake was moist and flavorful. The drinks weren't too strong. The service was a little slow, but the staff were friendly and attentive. Whoever designed this restaurant did a wonderful job. It's very unique and makes me feel like I'm in a cabin. The lighting is dim and sets the mood for a romantic date. There are a few areas to lounge and a spot to take pictures. They have seating available inside and outside. Bathrooms are stocked and clean. The antler chandeliers are gorgeous. But the real star of the show? The bar. The blue and neon lighting, the wood and rock beans, and the huge elk mounted in the center... So awesome! I'm definitely coming back to try other things on their main menu. They have a nice drink selection. It's very easy to spend a good $60+ here.

The bar and the bartenders are an absolute 10 out of 10. It's my go to bar to bring friends and…read morefamily. The restaurant unfortunately in the back is a completely different story. I brought my family and girlfriend for a nice dinner. We were there for more than 3 hours waiting for our food. It seemed like we had to literally grab the server for more drinks and everything seemed really disorganized. Our total tab was almost $500. For that kind of money at least competent serving and food wait times should be expected. We will not be back and I'm really sad that such a great bar in the front is done such a disservice by the restaurant.

The only spot in town that…read morereally captures that intimate, dimly lit ambiance with elevated cocktails and a tucked-away vibe that makes it feel special. It's cozy, moody, and perfect for date night or catching up with friends -- the kind of place where you actually want to linger. Troy is incredibly knowledgeable and clearly passionate about his craft. Half the time I don't even know what I'm in the mood for, so I'll just ask for a dealer's choice and let him surprise me. Somehow, he nails it every single time with something creative, balanced, and genuinely delicious. It's my favorite way to try something new without overthinking the menu. If you appreciate well-crafted cocktails and bartenders who truly know their spirits, this spot is a must in Folsom.

Food deals include half off all appetizers ("smaller") and tavern pizzas (flabreads). Specialty cocktails, wine, and beer are discounted a couple dollars and well drinks are nicely priced at $6. We came around 4:30pm and there was a lot of seating available. The hostess was welcoming and our server Evelyn was great. She had a chill and pleasant attitude and was very efficient with our requests. Kitchen was quick to bring out my poke nachos, and our combo pizza and chicken wings came within 10 minutes. My husband had to send his lemonade back because it was carbonated, but they fixed it right away and it was perfect. The poke nachos was stacked high with crispy wonton chips and diced raw tuna with a spicy aioli sauce throughout. The buffalo chicken wings were sauced just right and still a little crispy. I heard the server tell another patron they can do bbq sauce or naked if you do not want buffalo sauce. The flatbread pizza wasn't as crispy on the bottom as I'd like (probably because of all the toppings) but the edges of the crust were good with a nice chew/crispy ratio. Overall, food was delicious, and at half off, definitely worth it, Since there were only a few patrons in the restaurant at the time, it was fairly quiet, but I've been when it's packed, loud, and lively. Iron Horse Tavern is always a good choice for lunch, dinner, weekend brunch, and especially for Happy Hour!

Went back for another lunch and it didn't disappoint. Yes, this place can be confusing because…read morethere are no servers and you have to order at the bar. I've watched many people seat themselves at tables and leave 10 minutes later because no one asked them what they wanted. Yes, the decor is stuck in the 90's, but I actually like it. The double smash burger I had was excellent. The bun they use is awesome and they charred the patty perfectly. It tasted way better than Fleming's Prime Steakhouse burger I had last week, that's for sure. The thick steak-cut fries are awesome, too. Over salted but nothing a cold beer can't cut through. Highly recommend their smash burger.

If it wasn't for this "mission," there's a good chance I wouldn't have wandered in. I LOVE Sutter Street, but honestly I don't live nearby and don't have many reasons to come here. That said, I'm thankful for the mission and glad I dropped by. It's a super cute place and the bartender had a nice relaxed chill vibe to her. This is where I'd normally drop her name and give her kudos - but I didn't get her name. I thought her name would be on the receipt, but it wasn't! I assume her name isn't "Shift Night N" anyway, which would be weird - but that's what is listed for "server". Anyway... the burger... I liked it. I liked it a lot. I was not asked how I wanted it cooked (not expected or demanded by me) - but an observation that I toss in for comparison purposes. It was cooked to a solid medium, which is fine with me. Caramelized onions were standard - nice - but the tomato and lettuce were listed as 'optional' - and the bartender (Shift Night N) asked me if I wanted them. I opted in. The bun was above average - definitely a notch above the typical mass-produced buns often used elsewhere. I opted for sweet potato fries. They had good flavor. Personal preference-wise... I would have liked them to be cooked a smidge more. If/when I come back, I'll probably ask them to be crispy-er. Overall, thumbs up! I wouldn't hesitate to come back and try other things on the menu. #burgers
