Best Vegan Restaurants in Monte Rio

Unfortunately we arrived late but everyone was very gracious. Our server was on it the entire evening. We were seated immediately and greeted by him as soon as we got settled. We were celebrating a birthday and the evening felt special, a big thanks to everyone for making it happen. We’re already planning our next visit!

It was fabulous! We had not been to Walter Hanzel Wine & Bistro for awhile, probably during COVID when they had an outside tent back then. The name can be a bit deceiving as its a legit restaurant with bar, not a wine bar that happens to serve food. They do however carry a nice selection of wines including their own wine. We enjoyed it back then, and enjoyed it even more recently. The food was delicious, our server was very nice and attentive. I would say the atmosphere is casual fine dining, where they strike a nice balance between fancy & comfortable. We could hold a conversation over dinner without shouting or straining to hear one another. We'll be back there much sooner than last time! Blaise Lo

As guests at the Lodge, we thought it would just be an easy place to dine out - but it was the perfect place to celebrate 30 years of marriage. Everyone was so lovely, the view was spectacular -but the food was the star. Thank you so much for being part of our aniversary!

First time there, my fiend and myself both enjoyed our meals very much, both taste and presentation. Our server was very, attentive and personable. Would definitely return and highly recommend

First time there and was truly impressed. Service was friendly and efficient, the menu was diverse to satisfy a variety of appetites and the ambience was comfortable and warm. Every plate we had was visually beautiful and extraordinarily tasty. The wine, cocktail and mocktail selection was ample. Will be back!
