South Fork Grille El Dorado Hills

We went here for the 1st time for my husband's birthday. Really nice ambiance and the service was wonderful. Our waitress Jasmine made a point of telling us to take our time in figuring out what we wanted and answered all our questions and then some. We didn't feel rushed at all. The drinks are named after spots on the American River and what we picked were delicious. The Lettuce Wraps were to die for! We'd definitely get those again! My husband had the pork chop, mashed potatoes and glazed carrots. The pork chop/chutney was delicious, as well as the mashed potatoes! In our view, the carrots could have been cooked a little longer. I had the Fillet with Bernaise sauce, cheddar mashed potatoes and parmesan brussel sprouts. The filet was good and the sauce was delicious, but it wasn't as tender as I would have hoped and the cheddar mashed had some hot mustard in it, which was different, but not really to my liking. The parmesan brusell sprouts were good too, but not great. The coating didn't taste like parmesan at all. Don't get me wrong. It was all very good, but not great. (Sorry for the partially eaten dinner plate pictures! I forgot to take them before we started eating!) We'll definitely go back again though and try something different. The peanut butter chocolate mousse was really good, and beautifully plated, with Happy Birthday written on the plate in chocolate for my hubby. Such a nice touch! We were very impressed overall.

I'm a big fan of their other restaurants (Sienna, Land Ocean), and decided to do our wedding anniversary dinner there.

So glad we did!

The service was great. Food excellent. Wine prices reasonable.

We had shrimp and grits, and as a Louisiana native, I can say they done good.

The Miso Black Cod was delicate and delicious. Great, light dish.

The Curry Mussels were plump and fresh.

The service was everything we've come to expect from the owners/managers; smiles upon entry, friendly, professional demeanor, knowledgeable servers, and support staff that kept water glasses filled, and tables bussed.

When the weather gets better, their patio overlooking the water will be a great place to hangout.

Quite possibly one of the best Philly Cheese Steak sandwiches I've ever had. And I grew up in Cherry Hill. Bun fresh, steaming & hot. Meat ample & perfectly seasoned. Fries perfect. Amazing Amazing Amazing food. Service was so great. Ambiance was modern and pretty but a tad sterile. But who cares... some seriously good food at surprisingly affordable costs. Wife and I found a new lunch regular.

The food was prepared very well and was very flavorful. If you order the pork chops, request to have it cooked to your preference, because it will come out pink in the center probably every time. The yellow lights in the restaurant make it hard for the photos to display how delicious it was. The service was amazing and we will return for more. We need more restaurants with great chefs like this in El Dorado, because it is lacking.

First visit was fantastic! Just opened so service and quality should be top notch and it was.
Maddy I think was her name and as busy as it was she was always right there for any requests. I think she passed by 10 times at least. Thank you for being you! Another brought the hot Cornbread skillet that is our favorite and still remember the same one at Bourbon Steakhouse in Dana point. Please don’t ever get rid of that. My wife got the miso black cod. Just melts and cooked to perfection! My Salmon was also cooked perfect. The steam muscles in a curry sauce I rarely talk about but these ones we practically raced to the end. Dessert was not mind blowing but I know a bread pudding may make it one day :) Seats were comfy and nice spacing from the next party. Place was fully committed so noise level was what you would expect. Ice cream for kids was offered for free but was charged 6 bucks. All good. For being open about a week they are working it well! Will be back soon
