Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in Auburn

Everything was great, absolutely excellent. But it is so popular, relaxed, and comfortable that the patrons conversation volume level was above normal, making it a challenge to chat with my friends. Never the less, I love this place and will return .

Fantastic Saturday lunch. The staff opened the door for me early because it was raining. He gave excellent recommendations. The pace was perfect for my friend and I to catch up and make it to the Placer Theatre Ballet on time for the 1 pm performance. It was excellent. I had the shortrib grilled cheese sandwich that came with crispy perfectly seasoned french fries. My friend had the blue-cheese tomato soup. Super tasty.

Thunder Valley High Steaks Restaurant is expensive but a great experience. The ambience and atmosphere are great, the Wait Staff was wonderful, our Waitress, Ronney was excellent. Cocktails were great, a wide selection of wines and a full menu. Our shared Wedge Salad was one of the best, my wife had Prime Rib to her Blue (very rear) liking! However, we can never share a steak as my preference is Medium Well! So this was the only issue/exception, with my Filet Mignon, it was very Well Done (not pink), which for a Restaurant of this caliber, one would expect you would get a Steak exactly as ordered? However the taste was good! We would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking to share a Special Night together!

The staff was just awesome! Our host made great, got to know us a little before and made great recommendations. It made the experience a lot better. They also read my notes of my special event and took that into consideration when planning our experience. All the food we had was just excellent! Our Menu for the night was STARTER -Wood Fired Bone Marrow- you do have to have a specific taste for this before you order, i was familiar with it, if you are not, I don't suggest you get it the texture is not for everyone. ENTREES -Crispy Fried Half Chicken- Super delicious! Sauce is like a buffalo sauce has a great kick to it, -Duck Confit- I was iffy getting this, but this is definitely underrated! Very good! DRINKS -Elderflower Gimlet- I don't drink, and I ordered 2! Refreshing! -Scoundrel (Red blend) This was also very good very smooth. DESSERTS -Apple Cobbler-classic take on the cobbler! excellent taste! -Sticky Toffee Pudding- this was an interesting one, haven't seen this before. was excellent! Both Desserts were the toppers of the night! they were great way to end our courses can not go wrong with either one! Food was really good overall everyone around us seemed to enjoy their meals, you hear nothing but joy and laughter through out. FYI The menu changes seasonally, get it while you can. =]

Again! Best place in Auburn for relaxing outdoor dining. We appreciate the low key and (sort of) quiet ambience. (There’s not much to be done about the freeway noise, but we’re glad there’s no loud music.) We ordered flatbread pizzas and salad, and that kind chef, Adil, once again topped out dinner with a platter of fresh fruit. We LOVE this place.
