Best Restaurants for Groups in Carnelian Bay

Salmon filletes on brioche toast was outstanding. Perfect for sharing. Halibut and duck breast were the perfect entrees. We live in Nevada city but if Christy Hill didn’t require an overnight we would dine there more often. Our waiter recommended a wonderful bottle of wine. He was attentive, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic about the new menu without being intrusive.

I give Smoke Door 6 stars out of 5. Every course, every sauce was flavorful and different. The smoked vodka in one of the specialty drinks was amazing! 5 course tasting lunch was outstanding! Smoke Door is a very special restaurant with a tight, well communicating team. The kitchen is open and so very efficient and quiet. I can not wait to go back!

Gar Woods was crawling with tons of folks looking to spend a great Thanksgiving with a great meal and good friends. For as jam packed as they were, the staff kept everything moving as smoothly as possible, which was an incredible feat! The menu was a choice of Thanksgiving Turkey or Thanksgiving ha plus you could order off of their normal Dinner menu if you preferred. Most of my group had the Turkey and it came out piping hot, covered with gravy, mashed potatoes, white and dark meat, dressing, cranberry sauce, and asparagus tips . . a feast for the eyes and stomach . . followed by apple pie and ice cream. An incredibly joyous and memorable evening. Gar Woods never fails to deliver and deliver it did. Lots of smiling faces that night!

I love this restaurant! It’s always delicious food, great cocktails, awesome service, fun music and ambiance. I recommend the filet.

We had a wonderful experience! Nina was amazing and we will definitely be back!
