| - Redwood is a smoke-free, high end restaurant within the California Hotel. It has a comfortable bar which seats 6 and there's one seat for handicap. The bartenders are attentive and quite knowledgeable about their libations. Hint: Keith makes an awesome blueberry mule with Stoli blueberry and fresh fruit.
My review is based on this newly renovated restaurant completed in September 2016. My dinner party ordered the crab cake, spinach salad, BLT wedge salad, 28 day aged Prime Rib, Alaskan king crab legs, seafood cioppino, warm apple dumpling and crème brûlée. Freshly baked, buttered French baguette and roasted olives was served complimentary and a nice way to start the meal. I'm a big fan of embellishments and it would be nice if the entrees were dressed up a bit. Y'know, parsley, orchid, gremolata...just something that would please the eye and tease the palate.
All in my party gave their selections a thumbs up. But I especially liked the seafood cioppino which was a hearty red sauce which you could dunk your freshly baked bread slice in and mop up the sauce. Delicioso!
