Restaurants near Marshall Gold Discovery State Historic Park

We dined at Enchanted Forest Thanksgiving evening. Despite being really busy, the hustle and bustle, chatter of other diners, lovely Celtic music in the background, it was even more enchanting! We had made reservations for 2 and initially were a bit disappointed we were seated at a high top parallel to the bar. With that said, it all worked out since there were only 2 of us and the activity near us definitely kept us entertained and the conversation flowing. It was a pre-fixe menu and EVERYTHING on the menu made it difficult to decide. Hubby at the shortrib and I the salmon. The 4-course meal (salad, soup, entree and dessert) were all yummy. I do wish they would have had the live music throughout the evening and not for just the afternoon. Service was a tad slow but expected due to the volume of guests and potential guests seeking to have a shared meal with a loved one/s on this day of thankfulness and gratitude. They might have been short on staff, but that could also be attributed to the high of guests that day-evening. I would have given 5 stars but wanted to leave room for improvement. Overall, a lovely evening and a must for people of all ages. AND YES, we both wore our lighted head wreaths throughout the entire evening. If planning a trip to downtown Placerville...or...consider planning a trip to downtown Placerville, we highly suggest The Enchanted Forest Dining Experience. It is wonderful!

Excellent understated service! It was the best Thanksgiving dinner we’ve had.

Always love having dinner at Vacanza! The food service and ambiance is top notch!!

Food was absolutely amazing, drinks were perfectly mixed, and the atmosphere and staff were just amazing. We will definitely be back.

Favorite place to eat in Placerville!! Tyrone is the best.
