Wool Growers Restaurant

Bartenders are friendly and professional. Excellent drinks. I grab a cocktail and get food to go about once a week, I recommend the lamb stew... delicious. Bar area could be larger. Fun atmosphere with fun locals.

My favorite place to eat when crossing the Valley. This is one of the last great traditional California-Basque canteens. Don't come here expecting a cheap steakhouse, quick meal, or haute cuisine. If you're lucky, you'll be seated at a communal table with checkerboard tablecloth and area farmers. There's no printed menu. If they're serving lamb shank, order it -- when you pick up the bone the meat falls off in aromatic bliss. Every entree comes with a progression of hearty sides and simple house wine. Pace yourself. This is a farmer's meal. Service is efficient, kind and unpretentious. Treat your waitstaff well. Take time between courses. Talk to people at other tables. Be grateful the Wool Growers Restaurant has survived the commoditization of California

Historic restaurants serve Basque dishes. The staff was nice and they have this family style sitting style. A ready-made menu course depending on the date. The serving is a feast even with two, the fries and pasta was delicious.

We had a very nice lunch there. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The food was amazing and there was so much of it too. Had to take a lot of the main food dishes home. They had good music on. Seemed like a lot of locals were coming in too as well.

We have come here over the years while when this area. Our visit last night was wonderful as always. Service was excellent, many enter choices but we both had the lamb loin chops. Ask of the accompanying dishes were excellent too.
