I have to give a huge shout-out to Clements Ridge Produce & Bakery! I'll admit, I was a little hesitant to try them at first. The business has clearly changed hands and the offerings are very different than they used to be. I'm not usually much of a risk-taker when it comes to food--especially unfamiliar ethnic dishes--but my fridge was empty, they were available on DoorDash, and I didn't feel like getting back in the car. I'm so glad I took the chance! First, the empanadas were absolutely beautiful--generously filled, fresh, and delicious. I also ordered a few bakery items to enjoy with my morning coffee, and they were fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Then came the tri-tip sandwiches. I ordered one on ciabatta and one on Dutch crunch, and both were outstanding. The meat was tender, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. For dinner, I tried both the steak pot pie and the chicken pot pie... and wow. Comfort food at its finest. And finally, here's where I really stepped outside my comfort zone--I ordered the Chicken Biryani. It was incredible! Now I can't wait to work my way through more of their Indian dishes and curries. Beyond the food, their customer service was excellent. They communicated well, verified my order, and even delivered it promptly themselves. It's always exciting to discover a local business that's putting out great food and taking pride in what they do. I hope more people give them a try and help this local restaurant thrive. We'll definitely be ordering again! read more

I used to come here a lot when I was headed home from hiking or going out to the hatchery. My son and I would get homemade treats like Jordan almonds or flavored popcorn or, our favorite, a fresh baked pie. I hadn't been here in a few years, so when I drove by the other evening I made a point to stop and I wash shocked to see I had never reviewed this location. I was also surprised to see the state of the shop. It was not at all as I remembered it. The produce didn't look fresh and there was a layer of dust on items in the shop. They obviously have new management as they are now offering Indian food. I was interested to see that at first because I love Indian food, but after we got out and were looking around, I feel like it is actually a detriment to this place. I wanted to look at the pies but everything looked like it had been sitting and the smell of curry was thick. It's hard to get excited for sweetened farm fresh pie when you have a nose full of spice. That really put me off getting a pie. Still, I thought I would go with it so I decided to try some of the new menu instead since it was all I could smell. The menu is extensive and I tried to find someone to make an order but I couldn't find an employee so I ended up leaving. The way this shop is now is a peculiar combination and I am sad that I will probably not every have the urge to stop here again. read more

I don't remember if I've ever left only a one star review before. This one star is based on one visit and their strawberry pie only however. I've always wanted to stop here on our way back from Tahoe or Jackson. I doubt if I I'll be returning. It was my dad's birthday so I wanted to stop and get a "fresh pie." We bolted for their cool looking little pastry shop and found mucho pastries and pies for sale. It took more than a minute to get some help because there just wasn't anybody in there to help. When an employee did show up, he tried to push his chicken and rice dish but we just wanted pie. He gave us a sample anyway. It wasn't bad but like I said, I was there for pie. I chose the strawberry. So after singing happy birthday we dug into some homemade chocolate cake and the strawberry pie. It looked no bueno first off. It looked as if it was frozen, thawed, frozen, and thawed again. It had some dark paste looking substance inside, with dark weird colors, and only a funny little hint of a real strawberry smell. I was pretty disappointed and felt ripped off. It was like 20 something dollars. I hope they can rectify their strawberry pies! They're in a great location. read more

Chicken tikka masala and lamb curry pot pies? How unique, not to mention delicious! Everyone was so friendly here. They offered us samples to try and the coffee and chai are also complimentary! Their food here is proudly all made from scratch. We got the two pot pies and they were so flavorful. The puff pastry was flakey and buttery too. We slightly favored the chicken tikka masala over the lamb curry. A bit on the pricy side, but worth it! For a few cents less, they also offer these frozen so you can take and bake. We got a slice of blackberry pie to go that was full of fruit. The price if you use a credit card is marked up a bit more versus paying cash. read more

The butter chicken is the best one I've had. I will definitely try the other items when I come back. Highly recommend!

Been doing a few Tahoe trips lately to kirkwood and I'm glad we stopped along the way home to pick up some goodies. Their pies are deliciously worth it as advertised on the signs along the road. Something about how buttery the crust is and the flavor of the lamb filling was our favorite. Would go back for that alone, and spoiler we have. They even sell them frozen to go! We met a few staff members and they were great offering recs and samples to their butter chicken. The place is also spacious with good outdoor seating for a break. Definitely love the variety of this market and the many fun snacks, baked goods, drinks and foods they sell. Looking forward to next season for when we can come back and eat their pies again! read more

The food here is so delicious and the people are so kind, the manager Karen especially is so helpful and sweet. Especially the amount of food you get is so good for what the price is, the pot pies are my absolute favorite. They also have a baker in the back who is such a cutie and she is a very funny sadly she's only there on weekends. But definitely recommend if you're driving past it's always worth the stop read more

Man I trusted those guys knew what the heck they were doing - boy was I wrong - I ordered 3 samosas only no rice - how simple could that be - they handed me my bag (thinking I had my 3 samosas - two containers one had two the other had 1 samosa) and I went to pay. As I was ready to a pay a guy came out and gave me another container samosas saying these are complimentary - I said Ok (so I got 4 now). However the guy that was taking my card open the container and it had two - so I am thinking I have a total of 5 Samosas, but the guy at the counter said one order of Samosas includes two - So Ok I have 6 now right (that is what I paid for) - wrong - I should of checked the bag - instead of having 3 containers of 2 samosas each - they gave me one Samosa and a container of rice WTH!!! (initially) - plus the guy that came out gave me two more Samosas - so now I only have 3 samosas and a container of rice - but the guy rang me up for 3 orders of Samosas. Man am I stupid - always check your bag - you never know what is in it - plus now I am 1 1/2 hours away and stuck with a container of rice - only thing to note I did get my 3 Samosas but paid way more than I should have - Oh well Happy Eating everyone read more

The best authentic Indian food, fruit pies, meat pies, farmers market with local produce and products.

This place is bomb! There are so many different selections, fresh produce, snacks, meat and fruit pies. The folks that work there are always so friendly and offer tastings of what's already made and serving up in their deli. They also have ice cream that the offer as a tasting as well. I frequent this spot a lot and their steak pie is KILLER! I've tried their berry pies (strawberry, boysenberry, berry....all EXCELLENT. This is my go to when I need pies but frankly they taste better than any other pie I've had. I noticed during my last visit, WINE TASTING!! Haven't tried it yet but will next visit. read more

Stopped here on the way home to Sac. Was pleasantly surprised to see Indian food here! The butter chicken is delicious!!! Also picked up a chicken pot pie which was equally delicious and mango chutney which I have yet to use. Pretty sure the reviewer who sounds racist complaining about the "smell of curry and how the place should smell of American food"...IS racist. My only complaint is that it's a bit pricey, but other than that, delicious! read more

Great Indian food and staff was super nice with our little kid. Free chai sample was also incredible.

Really friendly staff. We stopped here on the way to the rodeo and they gave us a free sample of the butter chicken. It was so good we had to come back for dinner. They have pies (savory and sweet), ice cream, cookies, fresh produce, and lots of snacks. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. Great place! read more

Stopped here on our way back home. This spot is easy to find right off the 88 in Clements. Everything we ordered was extremely tasty.

WOW FACTOR? Yes. The zucchini was wonderful. Great and friendly service. HAVE AGAIN: The tikka masala and the lamb pot pies were good and very different from any other pot pies we've had. Pretty good. Blueberry pie was really good. It was firm and not runny like other blueberry pies. NOT HAVE AGAIN: Cinnamon roll just ok, not enough cinnamon, pastry too light and not sweet enough. The bottled drinks fridges were pretty empty, which doesn't look good. read more

Clements Ridge in Clements, California is a stop off of the highway that has a deli, fresh produce, homemade baked goods, and local wines. We were able to find this spot from the advertising they have along the highway, we were specifically drawn in by the sign for chicken tikka masala pot pie! First time seeing that! The bakery is great and offers a wide array of homemade pies, including classics like apple and boysenberry, as well as seasonal favorites such as pumpkin and pecan. Their fruit pies are especially popular. In addition to pies, the bakery serves fresh pastries, cinnamon rolls with cream cheese frosting, and fruit breads like pear and banana bread--ideal for a quick treat or a gift to take home. From the deli menu one of the top choices is the smoked tri-tip sandwich, barbecued on a charcoal wood smoker. You'll also find comforting classics like chicken pot pies, homemade soups, and fresh salads, making this a great lunch stop if you're driving through wine country. They also have frozen pot pies available if you want to take something home to go and heat up later. there is also a wine tasting room that has selections from local wineries, including Vine Hill Winery and Bokisch Vineyards. Visitors can enjoy tasting a variety of wines, from crisp Chardonnays to full-bodied Tempranillos, all produced locally by winemaker and owner Michael McQueen. Beyond the bakery and wine, the market carries a wide range of locally grown seasonal fruits and vegetables, bulk nuts, jams, olive oils, and other artisanal goods. Whether you're stopping by for a quick snack, browsing for local products, or spending an afternoon wine tasting, Clements Ridge offers a little something for everyone. read more

After not visiting Clements Ridge in a very long time, we stopped there on our way back from Murphy's. I didn't realize the ownership had changed. I used to purchase the chicken pot pies and they were amazing. I have one question... What happened to the chicken pot pies? I purchased one and it didn't look the same. The crust was totally different, so I asked the clerk about it and he said they changed the recipe and now used fresh ingredients not canned. He assured me they were still using all white meat chicken. Well I decided to give it a try.. I bright it home and baked it and it was absolutely terrible! The crust was some type of grain and the chicken was the weirdest texture as if it was ground up.. nothing like the original pies that had chunks of white meat chicken with a beautiful pastry crust. It was literally inedible! For $26.00 my chickens had a nice dinner. read more

Crazy expensive! $50 for garlic naan, a small chicken tikka masala pot pie, and a large chicken rice. My fault for not asking how much the chicken rice was before I ordered it: $28! They handed my food to me in a bag, and once I got it the car I realized they didn't give me my pot pie. Went back inside and told the man I didn't receive my pot pie, and he told me I didn't order one. Had to go back out to the car to find my receipt, take it inside and show it to them so I could get my $17 pot pie that I had paid for. Good food, but too expensive and not worth the hassle. read more

We stopped at the Clements fruit stand on our drive from Southern California to Placerville and I'm so glad we did! They had the biggest, sweetest pluots I've ever had, plus a great deal on a $5 watermelon. We also picked up pistachios, nuts, and fresh pastries -- the chocolate croissant, blueberry cheese, and strawberry cheese were all amazing! They even offered a sample of chicken masala -- unexpected at first for a fruit stand, but it was delicious! The staff was super friendly and helpful, and the prices were great. Definitely planning to stop again next time we're in the area. read more

steak pot pie is best i have ever had. They also have amazing sandwiches and indian food. Fruit drinks and snacks.

They make some really good sandwiches, and their customer service is excellent. This is definitely a place worth checking out. They even make their own wine and have a wine-tasting room. From pot pies to sandwiches to desserts, there's so much to choose from -- and you can even enjoy a glass of wine with friends or family. Please try their Butter Chicken -- it's one of the best I've ever had. Go in with an open mind and an open heart. They'll give you great food and the best customer service. Thank you for introducing high-quality Indian food to the area. It's nice to have something new here, and even better that it's genuinely good. read more

Wonderful service. Very accommodating. Food so good, my family made me drive back (two hour round trip) to get food the next day. Sample the chai... not so sweet, a deep full fall taste and texture. read more

Excellent chicken tikka pot pie. Service was great. What a find on our way back from Tahoe!!

I stopped by to try one of their dessert pies / meat pies and......what a disappointment. I got the steak pie and banana strawberry pie (personal size). Let me start with the steak pie....it literally tasted like pot roast and not steak....tasted very bland and definitely not worth the $10. The banana strawberry pie was just disgusting...one bite and I noticed 90% of it was whipped cream that tasted like the canned brand. The strawberry's were definitely not fresh as they were mushy and looked old...kinda reminded me of the frozen strawberry's you use for smoothies. The banana pieces were something else....Literally, they were brown and definitely not fresh. What a complete let down. It barely had a slather of pudding filling. Definitely not worth the $12... On a side note, while I was paying...the bakery employee came out and started yelling at the cashier in front of me. Totally unprofessional....i was like WHAAAAT. I paid a total of $27 for the 2 pies and a drink...what a total rip off. BTW, I would avoid the outdoor freezer that has the individual pies as they do not have expiration dates. If you see an "X" on it then it's on sale or in other words...expired. On a side note, the individual pies are marked as 5' instead of 5". This place had a TON of flies inside....would I come back...probably not. See the photos... read more

Passed Clements Ridge too many times to count and decided to stop since they were listed for having good sandwiches. -I ordered a Tri Tip sandwich and it was delicious.

We ordered (2) waters, (1) tri-tip sandwich, and the curry stew. There were no prices posted anywhere in the deli area, and we didn't find out the total until we paid at the register after getting our food. To my surprise, the total came to $50. The cashier rang up the curry stew as produce for $29.99 -- I was honestly thinking, WTF? For that price, I've had way better food elsewhere. This was my last time visiting, and I wouldn't recommend this place Food was okay, wasn't worth $50 for sure Saw some small baked pie, size of a small bowl The were $16.95. Everything is overpriced here. Should ask how much the stuff cost before purchase. Prices are not labeled on most of the stuff. read more

Sadly, this once hometown establishment has changed hands and lost quality. After ordering a beef sandwich and a lamb pie, the food was far below par. The sandwich was 2/3 bread, 1/8 processed meat with sliced onions. Dry and tasteless. The pie was definitely NOT fresh, 1/2 dough (very unappetising). Sadly, not worth the stop. The service was polite, but the kitchen took far too long to make a sandwich. The ambiance was blasse' - sorry, my husband and I will not be back and will let friends and fa know the sad truth. read more

We stopped in to get pies and sandwiches on our latest trip to Sutter Creek because of the good reviews, but we were very disappointed. I ordered a tri tip + swiss sandwich on a sour roll, but I was given the nastiest sliced white bread sandwich without cheese - 100% not worth the price and the meat was so stale/bland/chewy that it was almost inedible. The sandwich made me really sick to my stomach and I would never order a sandwich here again even if someone paid me - yuck. We trolled around the little shop for a minute, picking up snacks and treats here and there. Some of the snacks were pretty good (e.g. the coated almonds) but some of the snacks were a waste of money. We got three pies to go - chocolate silk, vanilla cream, and a fruit pie. They were okay. The consensus across the 10 people who shared the various pies was that they were comparable to the frozen Marie Callender's pies you get at any grocery store (but not as good as the frozen Claim Jumper pies), and these were not worth any special trip. We wouldn't come back here since it was a pretty penny for, at best - "meh" food and at worst - food that makes you sick. read more

Who knew, curry in Lockford? Holy moly. Amazing service, amazing food. The tri tip sandwich was very good. The butter chicken curry wad fantastic. Garlic naan and rice was perfect.

This place used to be wonderful and full of produce/bakery items. Unfortunately our recent visit was lacking everything. Granted we did stop by on a Sunday afternoon, however, there was literally nothing to be desired. The bakery section was practically empty and the produce didn't have much of a selection and what was there looked old. This space inside use to be more open with room to walk around and browse, but now everything seemed cluttered with empty shelves. I decided to get some honey/jalapeño stuffed olives and an individual black/blueberry sour cream pie. I've never had a sour cream pie and probably never will if this is how they usually are. The pie was very dense with a thick crust and an air bubble at the bottom. It was awful...plus side was that it looked pretty! I will say that the gentleman at the register, along with the girl in the deli were very friendly and welcoming. Sadly that's the only good thing about this place. read more
