We decided to take a chance and go to the casino for food and I will say it was really quite nice. The prices were good and the food was very good. The restrooms were very clean and the staff were friendly.

Great tacos and beer and wine selection…read more Met friends for dinner at 6pm on a weeknight and this place was popping! Place your order at the bar, grab a number and take a seat. I had their chicken and veggie taco with a spicy margarita. The chicken taco had a nice spicy kick, enough to tingle on the tongue without sacrificing flavor, but the vegetarian taco was my favorite! Anything with home pickled onions gets my vote. The spicy margarita can be ordered with a salt or tajin rim. Overall, great value and casual dining. Thanks pier place!

This place is in a prime spot on the top floor of the building down at Point Arena pier. We came to…read morean early dinner on Friday at around 5pm and it was dead, but by the time we left people were filling in the outdoor seats and a musician was setting up his instruments. My mom and I both ordered the fish and chips and we were so pleased! The batter on the fish was so crispy and delicious!! The service staff was also very friendly and fast. My only complaint was the basic frozen French fries were not on the same level as their fish. I would definitely come back though because it was a huge portion, great for the price.

They have a very large selection of sake, and the servers know and talk with the locals which is so nice to see in our modern society. The sashimi was absolutely stunningly good. Every dish was fantastic (we did the chef tasting menu - 5 course meal) and at the end we both looked at the Michelin guide because "this place has to be rated!) Take a drive or reroute yourself through Point Arena. You won't be sorry.

Went to Gama for my bday dinner. Had a reservation and it was pretty quiet inside so we were able…read moreto sit at a table instead of the bar. Usually we like sitting at the bar to see the chefs do their thing, but this place is not like that at least the night we went to which was surprising cause Japanese establishments typically are cooking out in the open. They had a lot of different sakes which was really nice to see but no draft beer unless I missed it. They let you pick a cup for your sake which is so cute, I loved that. All their table wear was so beautiful. We got a fruity sake first and loved that one. The second one was the "goku" it was giving straight sake. I'd prolly stick to fruitier ones. The server was very kind and she was easy to talk to and provided great service. As for the food, I thought it was pretty okay! We ordered the omakase which was $75 per person and it was very filling. We had trout sashimi which had some bite texturally not my fave fish tbh. Potato Salad which a jammy egg omg I loved it but wondered how it'd taste if the egg was marinated. The mushroom soup was lemony and oniony it was pretty good. The karage could've been crispier imo and I wish the wasabi aoli was a lil different but it was still good. The robata was hella good my fave was the meatball one, I'm not a big fan of cartilage but that it very well cooked, and I appreciated the pile seasoning provided as well. The strawberry topped panna cotta was so good no notes. Overall, pretty good and I'd go again if I was in this area and order individual dishes especially the potato salad and panna cotta. Not really the vibe of an izakaya imo they also don't have ginger but def a nice Japanese restaurant with some twists.

My friends and I were hanging out nearby after enjoying some…read morereally good food, and when we stopped in, everything was clean and the staff were genuinely kind and welcoming. It's the kind of place that makes you want to keep coming back and support a local business. The only reason my visit took an emotional turn was unexpectedly seeing the owner of a nearby construction business. Knowing what I know, I instantly felt uneasy and uncomfortable. In a small town filled with so many families and children, that feeling hit even harder. I immediately knew I would never support that business again. Thankfully, that experience doesn't reflect this construction business at all. The business itself was wonderful, and the employees made me feel welcome from the moment I walked in. I truly hope this business continues to thrive because it deserves the support of the community.

Absolute perfection! The owner John friendly, and exceeded our expectations…read more The food was outstanding and the cheesecake with the blueberry drizzle was epic. The owner John took the time to sit down (even though he was busy) to answer our questions about his restaurant. We plan on dining there again this evening.

We had dinner the previous night at Offspring and wanted to do a repeat... but they were closed for a private event, so we wandered the 150 feet to SOBO and I'm so glad we did! Situro greeted us at the door and informed us that although they had space, two other groups had just sat down so we'd be behind their service... which was just fine for a beautiful end of May evening. Service... attentive and complete. Nothing was left to chance. Food... utterly jaw droppingly delicious! The deviled eggs were elevated to a totally different level...very reminiscent of something that Thomas Keller may have put on a plate at French Laundry...YES, it was that good! The Yellowfin crudo had a tangy/ponzu sauce that helped to cut the fattiness of the tuna and made the dish light and bright, Then the salmon dish... pan seared but still damn near raw, with a sticky soy/ginger/molasses sauce..(in deference to my wife, I refrained from licking the plate!) I had modest expectations of Boonville...but I was stunned by the food scene and of course the magnanimity of the locals... well done!

We tried the Dogs Bollocks (yes, that's really the name!) and it absolutely lives up to it -- loaded with sausage, pepperoni, mushrooms, and olives, it's the perfect mix of salty, savory, and a little cheeky fun. Then came the Waimea, a tropical masterpiece with just the right balance of sweet and smoky flavors that transported us straight to island mode. The crust? Perfectly crisp on the outside, soft and chewy inside. The staff? Total legends -- friendly, funny, and clearly proud of their pies. You can feel the local love in every bite. Grab a Pliny, kick back, and enjoy the laid-back coastal vibes. Whether you're a pizza purist or an adventurous eater, this little spot in Point Arena will win your heart (and your taste buds).

After driving and seeing most all the natural sites, forest trails and beaches in the area in the morning and early afternoons, we were returning from Fort Bragg and decided to follow the signs to Garcia's River Casino for some nightlife. There were only six cars in the parking lot. Walked in and they had a slot tournament ending in 10 minutes, so we played and I won first place! With my more play, we sat next to each other on two machines and had a ball! Both machines kept giving us bonus rounds and terrific combinations. It's a very small casino, and a different activity for us for the week. But it sure was fun! It doesn't compare to LV or other casinos, but gave them 3 stars because we had a great time playing their machines. For us, It was definitely worth a stop.
