Restaurants near Paul Bunyan's Animal Land

All I can say is WOW! What took us foodies so long to try this place! Just Amazing!

We had great food, wine and service. The ambience was great, it was quiet, warm and cozy.

I took my son, his wife, and my 11-year-old grandson to Bardea on a Friday night. They live in Silicon Valley, where they have three Michelin-starred restaurants within driving distance. They agreed that the food at this place is better than what you get at two of those restaurants, and the equal of the third. What more needs to be said? Except that the service was friendly and efficient, and the place was full the whole time we were there. Not inexpensive, but it won't break the bank. And you can/should share everything with tablemates.

Bardea Steak surpassed all of our expectations! Every single dish was outstanding. The pork tostada and the elk meatballs as starters were the perfect portion and full of flavor. We did the Butcher Steak to try 6 different steaks. Best steak we’ve ever had and every cut was different but delicious! Service from the bartenders, to server Jason, to food runners as exceptional. Can’t wait to come back!

This is a spot that I've been covering a visit to fire a long time and it didn't disappoint. The cocktails had a nice punch but didn't bowl you over with the distinct burn. The seafood tower was fresh and paired with the most amazing sauces. The steaks were so tender, I barely needed a knife and cooked to perfection. The mashed potatoes were so light but flavorful. Then the creme brulèe was prepared with such thought that every bite was crisp and accompanied with a silky cream. Paired with the latte, this was a prefect meal in a beautifully curated atmosphere with the most charismatic and timely service provided by our server, Teddy. This is the perfect venue for a date night or big event, don't miss out on Tonic!
