REVIEW - River's End

If you haven't heard of this gem of a restaurant, it's because it's perched on the coast at Jenner, north of Bodega Bay, which is itself north of San Francisco - a total of 2 hours' drive.

While the Labor Day weekend, seafood-centric lunch was excellent, it wasn't quite worth that drive. Our oft-visited Redd, in Yountville, Napa IS definitely worth the 1.5 hour drive for lunch, but River's End is not.

The place was built in the 20s, and has a clientele that mostly looks like it was born around the same time.

It has a rustic, park-rangerish feel about it (the restaurant, not the clientele) and today's weather (sun absolutely everywhere, except the 2 miles of coast around River's End) did it no favors at all.

Still, her ladyship enjoyed her day out immensely, and as the great accountant in the sky will tell you, that's all that matters.
