Well versed on wines and quick to recommend menu items based on our preferences. Our ordering was somewhat haphazard and one of our party members only had drinks and appetizers, but he rolled with the punches and provided stellar service. We add on the patio, which was charming with twinkle lights and plenty of shade. We came during the height of the summer season, so it was very hot in front of the restaurant, but the patio was noticeably cooler. I would recommend a visit to Dion any time you are in Nevada City.

If we lived closer we'd end up as regulars here, but we'll definitely return on random weekends (and making reservations next time.) The feel of the place has a grotto and barn type of vibe. We'll check out the outdoor seating next time. There was nothing on the menu that disappoints so far. We look forward to exploring more (the duck wings will make a repeat appears for us.) This is a fun balance of higher end dining and multi regional creativity that we really enjoyed. The mix of high and low is something we explore a lot in our own kitchen, so we welcome that energy when dining out.

The venue itself is beautiful. The martini was good. Unfortunately, that's about all I can recommend. It was a Sunday night at 6pm. The rock band downstairs was annoying (and playing to an almost empty bar), half the entrees on the menu were not available, and the pizza we were able to order seemed underdone and floppy. When we communicated our disappointment, no accommodation was offered. We were the only table in the dining room. I can understand why.

We left satisfied and happy to plan a return visit very soon. The food we had, crab cakes, clam chowder, chicken marsala, beef stroganoff and berry cobbler were all absolutely delicious! The espresso martini I had was unmatched. The staff, servers, chefs & owners were all friendly and welcoming. We look forward to returning often to one of our new favorite restaurants. If you're in the area don't hesitate to eat here. A+

But how could I know that experience (and the service!! OMG the service!!!) was going to be so outstanding, that I would come back again the next evening to eat again?? The first night it was happy hour, with a spicy jalapeño mule, buffalo cauliflower, smoked Brussel sprouts, and a couple of beers. But the service was so attentive (almost too attentive) that we felt like we had to watch for gaps so we could take a bite or a sip in between folks checking in to see if we needed more food, more refills, or just a friendly hello! The next night was burgers, and brews, and bloody Marys - and again, the most amazing thoughtful, interactive and attentive service I have ever seen! And being a business owner, I can tell you that it's not enough to have a beautiful setting on the river with great views and a decent menu. Having servers, managers, bartenders (hell even the bussers had smiles and were polite and friendly) absolutely seals the deal. I really have no reason to go back to to El Dorado Hills in the near future other than work, but because of this single restaurant experience, I can tell you I am trying to find more reasons to return!

We also ordered the shrimp appetizer, it was absolutely delicious but quite small. The taste was 10/10, perfect spice level and the wonton crisps were perfectly crispy and fresh without being greasy at all. The lettuce portion is covered in a dressing that creates an added layer to the dish. I love the atmosphere of South Fork, it's dim, romantic, and somehow perfect for a girls (or boys) night out. They do have sports quietly playing on the tvs. There's always a little room to wiggle in at the bar. Will absolutely be back!

We have visited Nevada City multiple times over the last few years and were fortunate enough to be able to move here in March of this year. The Willo is a treasure (great steak dinners with all the fixins) and the true gem in the treasure chest is Nicole!. She treats all her guests like the best of old friends and has the sweetest presence of any one you will ever meet. We have had the good fortune to dine in some exceptional restaurants, but we have never left feeling as good as we do after a visit to The Willo. We love you, Willo and Nicole!
