We are locals and drop in maybe once a month. I've found that you get better service sitting in the restaurant versus sitting at the bar. We have never been ignored by the waitstaff and the food has always been good. We stick with the burgers that are hand pressed patties and not the previously frozen ones. read more

I've been to this place a few times now, because it's the only place "in town". The ambiance, and decorum is classless, chairs are uncomfortable. The hostess and waitress do not know how to smile, nor is it in their abilities to know how to make a salad and serve it in an appropriately sized bowl, don't put my salad on a dessert plate. Their ability to put to take an order for a plain hamburger is beyond their capacity. It will take an hour and even then, half raw. wtf? Most workers look completely out of it, and totally hating their jobs. The hate seems to pour into their food, not sure how this place will last. Anyone would be better off staying at home and eating a can of bad soup, then eating the sad plates they serve at this "restaurant". read more

Stopped here on our way to Sierra City for a quick bite. We are pretty picky about our food but his place was good all the way around. Our waitress was very sweet and did a great job. We both had the cheeseburger with bacon on it, it was delicious! I had a side salad instead of fries and it had all fresh ingredients. My hubby had a chocolate milkshake and it was unique and delicious. Good and clean with great staff. read more

Great all around. Perfect flautas. Clean and friendly service. Will be my go-to when in town.

Food and service was excellent. We had the Willow Glen burger and the daily special, two ceviche tostadas. If you're into spicy ask for the spicy hot sauce. Thank you so much Sandra, we will be back. read more

Having high expectations of Mexican food since I am Mexican. I'm always so reluctant to have someone else make it other than my mom. Definitely had mom's home cooking taste to it. The food was so good. I'll be back! read more

We had high expectations after seeing so much work put into the place to make it look more inviting. Unfortunately, the food hasn't improved. Apparently someone hid the chef's salt as all our dishes were all bland. To the owners, you've invested significantly into the restaurant, it's time you elevate the quality of the food. You have a prime location and could be a huge success if you can hire a proper cook and update the menu. read more

Amazing food and great service. Really great burgers, really fair prices for size of meals.

It's ok food not the worst but nothing special, server was decent prices were not to bad Not really worth it to me n my wife, but we all have different tastes we went there on a recommendation from fellow campers so some people really like just not really worth it for us read more

OKAY somewhat expensive food, and service that made us never want to return. We got the French dips, added cheese and onion for $2 making them $20 each, they were a bit salty but the bread wasn't stale and the meat (although dry) was typical. The fries were good, and the chicken strips basket was good- an actual good deal for the price! Our server from the moment we walked in acted like we were a bother to her. We ordered drinks and someone who came in 5 min later got his drink and side salad before our party of 4 had our drinks. Everything we asked for she seemed to be too bothered to get without practically rolling her eyes. We waited quite long for everything and ended up wandering the restaurant in the end trying to find her so we could get the bill to pay and leave. (Server was older woman, white, thin, sharp features) read more

Great food. The place may not look like much, but the food is wonderful and you get a nice serving for the cost. It is home style cooking and always comes out good. read more

We were staying at Collins Lake and took the group out to breakfast. Saturday morning. Great service. The food was outstanding. Very fresh, and you couldn't get better surroundings for a country meal. Hated going back to reality!​ read more

My husband & I will be back here for sure. Great customer service, food was awesome and portions were so large we had to get to go boxes. Went next door to the attached bar for a drink & bar tender was great & everyone in there was very welcoming - made us feel like we were not outsiders. We will definitely be back here soon!! Great experience!! read more

My hubby and I just moved to the area, and decided to check out the Willow Glen together for the first time last night and it was fantastic. A pretty bartender with long double braids took care of us and she was very attentive, though quite busy! The food was surprisingly pretty good too, and I can be really picky after being a chef for so many years! The live band sounded great and there are a few pool, a ping pong table, and a horseshoe pit outside. Excited to spend more time here, thank you guys for doing a great job! read more

Terrible food unless you like low grade food service quality . Powdered mashed potatoes, gelatinous gravy and soup , the green bean mush , powdered milk shake substitute, French fries taste of really old fry oil with a hint of fish from frying fish n chips . Frozen apple pie was gross . Nothing at this restaurant is made fresh it is entirely canned, boxed , reheated and done very poorly. The owner has no clue of the missed opportunity in this small community to serve decent meals . Last thing the decor is hideous Local that has given this place the last try , never again read more

Terrible service. Waitress was rude. A patron in the bar next to the dining area was smoking marijuana which could be smelled by diners when the doors to the bar opened and closed. Bartender was confrontational and angry when a large table of women asked if there is something that could be done. This group included a 5mo. old medical fragile premise baby who was having to breathe in Vape smoke. Burgers we're also very dry. Waitress had to be reminded several times to give patrons water. read more

Great drinks and delicious food! My favorite is taco Tuesday (variety of meats available). Willow Glen offers a relaxed and fun vibe!

I'm a Paradise evacuee and am staying in Browns Valley and ran across this place 2 days after I lost everything in the Camp Fire. The menu looks great and was looking forward to trying it out. The first time I came here everyone was nice and the food was great. The second time was totally different thanks to the bartender, she heard me asking locals it there was any housing nearby, she basically told me I wasn't welcome here because she lost her house the year before and only locals should be able to get housing here. Guess she forgot how hard it is to lose everything you own, I'd give this place 5 stars if it wasn't for her. I won't mention her name but she knows what she said and did was totally uncalled for. Actually she probably doesn't. read more

Got an apology from someone there, so brought this up from one star to two. It is what it is... Willow Glen Saloon "Sorry you had a bad experience with us! I am not sure who it was, if it was me and I ignored you I apologize I do my best to acknowledge everyone. Our biz. thrives on tourism.Have a great day...." read more

What a surprise. On a Saturday night, almost empty parking lot, middle oF no where, non-descript building...AND A GREAT MEAL, GREAT SERVICE, GREAT PRICES. Would go out of my way for this place. Having owned a number of restaurants I really appreciate wonderful surprises read more

Great Bloody Mary's, absolutely horrible service. We ordered around appetizers took about a half hour to get there that's not bad, we placed our order for burgers we waited over an hour and a half and still we're not served so we just walked on out if you want to go their to drink great place to hang out. If you want to go there for food and drink grab McDonald's on the way to the bar. Mediocre to piss poor service at best. Huge disappointment this round. We will not be back read more

We were camping and discovered this place kinda out in the middle of nowhere. The dining area gave us the impression it was small. Then we went to the full bar. It's huge! The food was good with generous portions. My husband had the chicken fried steak, which he couldn't finish there was so much. The cuts of ribeye and prime rib took up 3/4 of the plate! I had the bacon cheeseburger with fries. The burger was fresh and hand made. Very homey and friendly place. I'd definitely go back. read more

Willow Glen - Bacon cheeseburger and fries. Homemade burger! - Bars Near Me - Oregon House, California

We came in here a few times probably about 7 or 8 years ago when we starving. The food was terrible and I swore we wouldn't come back. About a year ago I got talked into eating here again and I wasn't looking forward to coming back. I was wrong! The food I've tried is awesome now. Burgers are excellent. I probably stop in at least once a month. The restaurant is usually pretty quiet when I come by. The waitress Mary is always nice and quick to take our order. The bar is awesome too! I'll be back soon! read more

Love the food service and seeing local faces. I wish I could give it 10 stars. Try the prime rib on Friday nights! You can't loose. Mary will serve you a great dinner! read more

We were camping at Lake Francis and not in the mood to cook. We decided to try Willow Glen for dinner. It's a little hard to know that there is an open restaurant there...I think some more signage would be good for business. Anyway, we were pleasantly surprised. There was plenty of seating. We both had awesome burgers, fries, and dinner salads. The service was good and we made sure to look at all of the food that other people ordered too...it all looked very good. We even ordered a couple of pieces of cheese and to-go for dessert. A great little place in the middle of nowhere, but we will be back next time we're camping nearby. read more

Willow Glen, not closed. I have only been to the Willow Glen a couple of times in the past year but I have to say that on both occasions I had a really good time. The bartender greeted us as soon as we walked in & provided great service all night. The KJ running the karaokee was also really nice. I had a few drinks, sang a few songs, great way to end the week. Stop by & check em out. read more

Great food and great ribs! Bar tenders are awesome! A little off the beaten path but worth the drive!

Terrible food. Their website said they closed until 10 showed up at 850 and they were closing. I told them they didn't have to take my order but they insisted. Well the food came out looking like crap ! And it tasted like it. ! I was in such a rush that I just threw it out of my car, I didn't have the time or patience to return back and tell them how their service was. I don't recommend this place to anyone, ever. read more

This a COUNTRY restaurant, don't expect a CITY experience! Have a little patience, and maybe the locals that you think you are too good for will buy you a beer! read more

Hello Management, I have been here twice for dinner. Twice now the food has been horrible and tasteless. I recently had the special which was a roast beef sandwich and the roast beef was old and dry like it came out of the freezer. It didn't even have that roast beef smell. It had absolutely no taste. The vegetables served weren't crisp and were also old with a consistency of rubber. Couldn't eat any of it. Also, we had the fish and chips prior on another visit, again the fish tasteless. The chicken fried steak was good, as was two of soups you make, the broccoli and the potatoe bacon. Stick to these items, they work. What the main problem with the restaurant is that I see is the quality of the food and the atmosphere is just not there. The restaurant is too dark and gloomy, too much clutter in one area around the tables (dolls), the pictures are mounted way too low on the walls which makes the place appear small and the salad bar is very noisy and which sits right in the dining area and next to two of the tables. The current food and the atmosphere of the restaurant is lacking, period. My suggession. Move the salad bar somewhere else, maybe the bar, its too noisy to be in the dining area. The salad bar would probably get more business from the patrons from the bar since the bar appears to always have business. Thus, the dining patrons would have to go to the bar to get salad and then this may entice them also to have a drink after dinner and listen to music, play pool, whatever. Definely repaint the ceiling white (from dark green) to bring in light, re-hang the pictures approriately (higher) on the walls to give the dining area a large feel, add some burst of color to the trim of the walls and maybe even below the trim and most definately get some good fresh food in and a better menu. Do a handful of food items that are easy and do and make them consistently great. Maybe even find a niche of a few giid items that WIllow Glen Restaurant and Saloon could be known for ie. a huge 1/4 burger, an awsome pizza. Where the salad bar was you could also add one or two more tables and get some more patrons in for dinner (with better food, of course). There also needs to be better customer service, not just serving dinner but being a little more friendly in the dining area and the bar. With a little change and work, I am sure it could be a very nice place to eat for all in the area including the tourists. Just a friendly recommendation. read more

Have been here several times, because it is about ten minutes up the road ( YES, we are locals that do not normally go to this place to eat).Stopped coming out here, because the food was so BAD!! Thought we would try it again, since we heard it was under NEW management. We would actually prefer to drive 30+ minutes to get good food and COUNTRY service! So, as previous posters noted, this is decent BAR food. Nothing special. The bartender who was here when we walked in was nice. When our food finally arrived, 30 minutes after we ordered (and there were only 2 other people in the bar eating- we ordered a burger and a grilled cheese, knowing the food was IFFY, so we went with a SAFE choice). We waited another 45 minutes to cash out, so we could leave. The reason for this is a two reasons: one, as we were finishing our meal, the bartender's were changing shifts, so they couldn't seem to decide who was responsible for their CUSTOMER!! And, two, as we were finishing our food and showing signs of deciding to cash out, BOTH bartenders decided to go outside and have a SMOKE BREAK!! Now, they were kind enough to put Fiddler on the Roof on TV, so we didn't get bored. After a good ten minutes, we seriously contemplated just leaving without paying. When three other customers walked in and NOBODY was there to take care of them, I told my husband that I should go get one of the two bartenders or serve those customers myself and cash out our bill. Finally, fifteen minutes later, they both meandered back in SMELLING of Mary Jane!! My husband and I then realized the reason for the poor service. We paid and dropped a two dollar tip on a 26 dollar check ( agreed, more than they deserved,but my husband feels bad about not leaving something). As we were walking out, the other three out of five clientele were enjoying a nice skunky smelling smoke outside. At least now, we knew where they were!! Understood, marijuana was declared legal as a recreational drug, just like alcohol. BUT, if I was the owner of this establishment, I would want to know WHY most locals do NOT spend their money here. We certainly won't waste our time here anytime soon, again!!! read more

Great Menu-Good Service-The BEST vanilla milkshake I've had in years--maybe EVER!! The pork chops were wonderful. Tonight I'm going to try the Rib-eye and mud pie, Can't wait!!! read more

We stopped here for lunch on our way through town. The service was great.. We had to change our order (twice) but both times it was met with "no problem." the cook came out at visited with us to make sure everything was ok. The food was great diner food. Definitely will stop there again. read more
