Best Restaurants for Birthdays in Kenwood

Auberge did not disappoint! Phenomenal service, food and views! Clearly a well-managed facility. We were greeted with warmth and courtesy from beginning to end. Definitely a favorite spot for the family. Thank you for making our holiday special.

Food was great, quiet outside seating but warmed by heaters, unobtrusive and prompt service. Overall a five star experience on a holiday at a busy restaurant

Christmas Eve dinner. Party of three. High satisfaction level, as usual! Stark’s Seafood and Steak is our holiday meal go to. I make the same thing every holiday…. reservations at Stark’s. Festive decorations, a welcoming holiday atmosphere. Our server was warm, affable, professional without hovering. Just right. We all ordered appetizers, and the mussels were the unanimous winner. Little ones in a sauce worthy of sopping up with a second order of bread. My daughter ordered her favorite butter fish with sticky rice and it met her expectations again. The other two of us had the lobster, so perfectly prepared. Again. Generous portions left us too full for dessert, and memories of a lovely holiday meal . Thank you.

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.

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.
