    10/10! We ordered the focaccia and the brusselsprouts and oh my goodness was that amazing! We ate that so quickly by the time our entres came we were almost too full to finish. Our server Summer who is a beautiful human being did a wonderful job and you can really see how happy working here makes her. The ambiance was very chill, playing great music, lots of cars out front but not crazy packed. We had a wonderful experience and I will definitely be going back next time I'm in town. Thank you to everyone at the Riverwood, you guys are doing an incredible job!

    Beet salad and potatoes. We came for Sunday brunch!

    This is a cute roadside eatery nestled in the redwoods of northern CA. Food is pretty tasty, and so…read moreare the milkshakes. Recently I tried the vegan burger and was pleasantly surprised with the flavor. It is a vegetable patty rather than a meat-imitation patty, which I prefer anyway. I would order this item again! I upgraded my fries to curly fries, and I kinda felt like the portion of fries was smaller than I am used to, but they were decent. Burger fixings (lettuce, pickles, condiments, etc.) are self serve. Also a major highlight of eating here is getting to see and interact with their cats! :)

    It was lunchtime during our drive on the Avenue of the Giants scenic road, so decided to stop at…read morethe Chimney Tree Grill as our ninth stop (11:07) on day five of our Northern California road trip. My wife, her mom, and I, all like burgers so figured this would be a good place to stop. Our cellular service did not work here, so had to use the info I had downloaded in Google maps to know where to stop. It ended up being pretty good. Hours are daily 11:00 - 20:00, so we arrived just after it opened and were the first ones. There is two areas for outdoor dining: a large set of picnic tables near the chimney tree as well as a patio at the restaurant itself. We soon realized that a cat was roaming the patio, looking for food, so we decided to eat inside, instead. It's a one man operation, with the owner fulfilling multiple roles. After we orders and paid, we got a pager to notify us once the order was ready. Everything is prepared fresh, so it took a bit of time. But because it was served hot, everything tasted good. I love a lot of toppings on my burger, so the self-serve topping bar was great...was able to put as much lettuce and pickles as I wanted. The 1/3 hamburger ($12.99) came with good fries . My wife got her plain cheeseburger 1/4 cheeseburger ($9.99) and enjoyed it. Her mom got chicken strips basket ($13.99), and upgraded her fries to be curly. We all shared each others fries, and the curly fries were really good. Drinks are cans. I didn't want to risk having a milk shake, but from all indications, it sounded good. We ate our meal at the counter. Afterwards, the owner suggested we walk across the parking lot to visit the Living Chimney Tree. It's free to enter, and is hollow enough for a person or two fit in. There are openings on both sides, so easy to take some nice pictures.
