Best American Restaurants in Glen Ellen

We had a lovely dinner. The food was delicious. The service was attentive but overly so. The ambiance was warm and not too noisy. All in all a really nice evening.

Love this place! Great food, great service, lovely location. We go here for special occasions (birthdays, anniversaries, etc) and would go more often but a) it's expensive, and b) it's an hour plus drive for us. Still, we always look forward to going back.

RH Yountville is one of the loviest resraurants i have ever been to. Ambience is unparalleled as soon as you walk in it takes a minute to take in the stunning view of the trees and fountains. You’re greeted ever so politely by the host and seated at an impeccable pace. The waiters are equally polite and are very warm and welcoming. They have are knowledgeable about the menu and everything we had was perfect. Me and my boyfriend started off with the burrarta and crispy artichokes for appetizers and they paired very well with one another. We also got a peach bellini and a rose which was the perfect palate cleansers. For entree got the ribeye in medium well and it was perfectly charred on the outside and soft juicy pink on the inside. Along with the ribeye we also ordered the lobster roll. The size is questionable at first but as soon as we started eating it we found ourselves getting full pretty quickly. The lobster was fresh and soft and the bread with it was absolutely delicious. We ended our dinner with butterscotch brulee and by far the yummiest affogato. I will defintely return to try out the rest of the menu.

Excellent food in a very casual setting. Dinner is amazing although not cheap.

A Perfect Lunch Spot in Glen Ellen My wife, Barbie, and I had a wonderful afternoon exploring Glen Ellen, and we decided to stop for lunch at The Mill after finding its stellar Yelp reviews. The Mill’s location is enchanting—nestled beside a fast-moving creek. Parking was convenient in a nearby lot near the bridge leading to a charming complex of restaurants and shops. Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted by the owner (Sanjeev), who escorted us to a cozy table for two right at the creek’s edge. The lunch menu was thoughtfully curated, offering a variety of dishes and beverages, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. On the owner’s recommendation, we started with their special bread, a favorite among many Yelpers. It was fresh, perfectly seasoned with olive oil, garlic, and parsley—absolutely delicious! For our main courses, we had the clam chowder and the spicy chicken salad. Both dishes were flavorful, satisfying, and generously portioned. Whether you’re on a wine-tasting weekend or simply a local out for a scenic drive, we wholeheartedly recommend The Mill at Glen Ellen. It’s the kind of place that combines excellent food, picturesque views, and genuine hospitality to create a memorable dining experience.
