And although only one of the two heat lamps were working - it was still worth being cold! We loved the little downtown surrounding area - walkable, fun different shops to explore. Food was absolutely delicious. We were ALL happy with our respective meals. And we even had to get some pastries to go as they looked way too good to pass on. My groups faves: biscuits and gravy, Huevos Rancheros and omelets; We took home cookies and a Danish to go as well!! Service was fast, fun and friendly. Our waiter was extremely kind and patient with my Aunt that was super indecisive and had a ton of questions. He kept things light and gently teased her - and got all of our orders exactly right. That's priceless!

It says burgers and sandwiches on the sign, but they have some of the best fried chicken I've ever had anywhere. They use a corn flower batter on their chicken and fish and both are awesome. So tender and moist. Their menu is mostly Mexican food besides the burgers and I can't say anything on it other than the beans and rice that came with our meal was also delicious. This is a one stop has it all. Besides the restaurant with inside and outside dining, there is a nice convenience store and fuel for your wheels too. The service was great. So if you're going from nowhere to nowhere on CA-128 through Boonville, stop for some fabulous chicken.

If you're traveling through Anderson Valley or heading toward Mendocino, I can't recommend Offspring enough. Excited to come back.

I realize this is a very small town with a very small market. However, considering that it…read moreattracts and caters to tourists, a bit disappointed that they didn't have better gluten free options considering the significant progress in GF pizza crust technology. The kale and cabbage salad was innovative with a fermented garlic vinaigrette dressing with crispy kale (never had that before) and marcona almonds. It was a substantial salad for two and was delicious - not too much dressing, the dressing wasn't overpowering, the cabbage was crisp - it all worked really well. Because they didn't have gluten free pizza crusts, got the asparagus, green garlic and speck pizza toppings over polenta, which came out sizzling hot in a pan. It probably was great as a pizza, but not great over polenta. The pizza's looked large, so instead of getting a pizza that would only be half eaten, ordered the radiatorre pasta with pork ragu as the second entree. The pasta was fresh, substantial and delicious. The ragu was good, not too saucy, but a little bland. It could have benefited from some fresh basil and a little more... oomph. The local wines - barbera and granache - were not our favorites so we ordered a bottle of sangiovese. Fairly pricey - it all came out to over $200.

The service here is excellent; the wait staff were incredibly friendly and made the whole experience feel welcoming. What really stands out, though, is the aesthetic. They've pulled off the '50s diner theme perfectly--it feels nostalgic and cozy, yet stays bright and airy thanks to all the natural light with some accent of plants.
