Restaurants near Sycamore Creek Recreation Area

The food was very good and served hot. The bread rolls could have been heated longer; as it was, they were not even warm in the middle and felt liked they might have been microwaved to warm them up. I was expecting a nice crusty exterior with a tender interior that would melt butter. That didn't happen. My stroganoff was delicious and the meat was very tender, The noodles (actually fettuccini) could have been cooked a bit longer. I had enough left over for a meal for two which was nice. My hubby's pork chop was tender, but a bit on the dry side. The asparagus that accompanied his chop were perfectly prepared and very tender. The potatoes au gratin were swimming in butter, and he bypassed those. We shared a creme brulee for dessert and it was excellent and came with a cute green macaron stuck in the middle of it. The ambience was perfect us as we prefer a quiet dining experience, and the service was very good as well. Overall, we enjoyed our meal and were happy the restaurant was open for Christmas Eve as not any of the really good restaurants in Chico were. We understand the menu will soon be changed and we are looking forward to revisiting restaurant when the new menu is in place.

The food is always amazing. The service is excellent as well.

We really enjoyed our 38th anniversary, first time at council oaks, the staff from the hostess , the waitress and the manager, who was gracious to come and chat with us, were wonderful, welcoming and friendly, the food was great and the fine dining experience was something we had been missing in this area for a long while, we will be back!!

We had a wonderful meal!!! The waiter suggested an excellent entree, the rib cap, it was excellent! I added the green pepper corn sauce and it was a great finishing touch! My wife had the filet minon and she loved it too!!! Great atmosphere, wonderful wait staff and great cocktails!!! Highly recommended!!!

Pleasantly surprised how good the food was. We went for brunch. The steak and egg’s were excellent, good flavor and cooked perfectly. The prime rib egg’s Benedict was fantastic! Breakfast potatoes were also very good. They had gluten free bread which was nice for me.
