Reviews for Tofanelli's Gold Country Bistro in Grass Valley, CA

Great food and friendly staff! I don?t normally ever write reviews, but our server Matthew was one of the best out there. Super... friendly and made it a fun experience, just a great atmosphere to me around in general. He really enlightened our day! Irecommend 10/10 always! Read more

The service was fine and people are friendly. The food is par with all the area restaurants. It's definitely better than the... Wild Eye Pup, Cirinos, Maria's and the Owl. One problem is that the building is too hot. Another problem is that parking is anightmare and timed. There us no wheelchair zone and it's sidewalk area is steep and uneven. Their back patio is state of theart with fans and heaters and shade. The severs are sexy and attractive. Unfortunately they do have male servers though. Garrettin the kitchen makes the best food there and he deserves more pay and should be in charge. Read more

Excellent food, great service and decent prices. Will definitely be a go to in the area. The island chicken sandwich was... delicious, strawberry lemon drop tasted like lemonade and the watermelon mojito was incredibly refreshing. Read more

Had the Turkey Guadalajara and the Poached Salmon Salad plus Mojito and Mau Tai. Great brunch while in GV. Our server Judd was... great. Fully recommend Tofanelli's. Pet friendly in their patio seating. All pets according to our server, even Llamas have beenpreviously served. Read more

The staff on duty yesterday afternoon early started off fantastic with the hostess. It continued with our server who was... spectacular. We can?t remember their names (shame on me) but we were the couple that sat next to Cooper & Lola, the two cutedogs. We have gone there for years and we never felt so welcome as we did yesterday. Thank you very much! Jim & Joli Butler,Palm Springs, Ca. Read more

With no power at home, I've been exploring my local eateries at a much faster rate than normal. Today's choice did not... disappoint. This place has become one of my favorite places for breakfast. And from the looks of it, might be a good place fordinner too. Will have to give it try soon. FYI, I came here during the week, so not sure what this place is like on a weekend.The place was fairly empty, so I got seated right away. Got a nice table by the window and was able to people watch whileenjoying my meal. Speaking of, if you can't find something the tickles your fancy here, you have issues. To say they have lotsof options would be an understatement. I ended up getting an omelet with bacon, mushrooms, green onions, tomatoes with countryfried potatoes. I also got salsa and a pancake on the side. The meal was delivered in a very timely manner, which was good. Asalways, I was pretty hungry. Everything tasted really good. I think I would prefer if the potatoes had more seasoning, butthat's a personal preference. Portions were great! I actually could not finish all my food, which is a rarity. In regards toservice, it was awesome! Fast and attentive. Thank you Melenie! The icing on the cake was the price. All this great food andservice for just a shade over $15, before tip. I will for sure be back. Read more

I can't even begin to explain how impressed I was with Tofanelli's. The staff was incredibly professional, courteous, and... polite! The atmosphere was amazing, perfect lighting, the live music was just the right volume, and the placement of everythingwas spot on. And as far as the food goes, I wish we could have tried everything! The fried brie cheese was perfectly cookedand tasted like it was supposed to! The fillet was seasoned to perfection. And the chicken spinach salad was divine. And thepresentation of the food matched the tastefulness of it. I will definitely stop here for my next visit! Say again Read more

BIG variety of delicious food, served in a beautiful setting. 1st up, order a house made spicy bloody Mary cocktail loaded with... vegetables. It will help you decide from over 101 choices of omelets, 10 kinds of eggs Benedict, 15 varieties of hamburgers, 12options of salads just to start to describe their limited menu. If the weather is nice ,ask for a table out in their awardwinning lovely patio. Or enjoy your meal indoors, surrounded by century old brick walls. A full bar is offered, including manya local wine. Great friendly, helpful service, especially if your lucky to have Melanie as your server. Read more
