In our opinion...the best fine dining in the county. The chef is onsite and you can see the kitchen staff cooking your meal as you sip your wine. We usually order small for dinner so-as not to miss out on their fabulous deserts!

Just outside of downtown Murphys on Highway #4. You can't beat having dinner and drinking margaritas at their outdoor area next to the Murphys Creek. The chicken mole is great as well as their Caldo de Pollo soup!

Sightseeing
A trip to the area isn't complete without a picnic at Big Trees State Park that has Giant Sequoia Trees. Enjoy hanging out next to the Stanislaus River, learning about flora and fauna at the visitor's center, picnicing on one of the many benches throughout the park...but most importantly taking a hike through one of the Sequoia Groves. During the winter on Saturday they loan snowshoes on a first-come basis.

Old Goldrush Town that has been fully preserved. Take a ride on the horse and buggy, mine for gemstones, watch blacksmithing demonstrations, etc... The ice creams in handmade waffle cones at the Fallon House theater are tasty and kids love the homemade candy store.

Offers several tour options- the shorter walking tour and then an adventure tour that takes half a day. It goes through tight spaces, large rooms, super muddy rooms and at the end you cross a lake in a boat. You will be loaned overalls and will exit covered in mud. Remember to bring old shoes if you do the adventure tour!
