I agree with you about food at the club. We aren't members but have been as guests and the food is always great. I wish it was like many years ago when they opened up to the general public (I think it was on Friday nights only.) It was such a nice option for dining out and the setting is so pretty.

I agree. Stonehouse is overpriced and sorry if everything is prepared from scratch then it should be better. Not worth the wait.
And your right DB, food at the club is good, service is great and very reasonable.
El Gallo is also one of my favorites. They are cheap, fast and the margaritas are very refreshing!

Congrads to the Queen on your first post. Welcome to the place we call home. Imagine this..... If every social or member invited a non member on the weekend to the 19th hole, imagine 1. the new members we could gain and 2. the amount of money the club would have to suport our country club?

We have had nothing but good food and service at Stonehouse. Are we talking about the same place? You say six years, they have only been open for about two or three.

I wonder if he is talking about the previous pizza place, Murieta Pizza? I for one am looking forward to a local delivery van here in RM for pizza, not that my waist needs it

I think Stonehouse has only been open 1-1/2 or 2-1/2 yrs now.

Had dinner at the Club tonight, it was EXCELLENT! I had the swordfish and hubby had the braised short ribs. Presentation was great, food was hot and very very tasty.

From the flyer I picked up: Three ladies - Leigh Hannah, Valerie Marston & Paula Chafey-Merrill make up the group. They've performed together since 1996. They've sung at numerous Jazz Festivals all over the nation. Music of the 30's & 40's. 2005 Best of Sac Award "Best Swing Band". Tribute to the Andrew Sisters.

No, don't think we're going...hubby not interested in that era.

Susan's Place in Sutter Creek is always good. Never had a bad meal at Stonehouse. I agree that the service can be a little slow but I've usually got nothing better to do and it's a good opportunity to talk to my wife. We often get pizza to go from them. I like the House Special Chow Fun at the Chinese place. The Carnitas at the Mexican restaurant are usually good. For all around good snacking it's hard to beat Costco around noon on Friday.

IMHO, Stonehouse is very overpriced and the service is far too slow--cooked to order or not. By and large, we choose the club, but for a really special occasion, can't beat Hawk's on Douglas Blvd. in Granite Bay. Prices similar to Taste--also very good, but men generally don't like paying, as hubby puts it, "entree prices for appetizer portions." At Hawk's portions a bit more "manly."
We used to love China Palace, but something has changed with new owners and cooks--their war wonton used to be the best around. The Chinese Place in Sheldon, next to Silva's, is very good, as is Silva's. The Buena Vista in Jackson Valley (out towards Lake Camanche) serves full dinners and the chef came from the Woodbridge Inn in Lodi. Good portions at equitable prices.
I understand Cafe Via d'Oro in sutter Creek has a great Sunday bruch, but we haven't yet tried it.
