This place was recommended by our friends to celebrate my birthday. The food was excellent! The staff was great. The fog was in, so we didn't have a view of the ocean. I imagine sunsets are amazing from this restaurant. The interior is somewhat dated, but it was fine.
Ledford House in Albion River
Well what a nice surprise it is tonight. Specialty aperitif upfront is a Gingerbread Martini (Christmas in a glass.) Food selection is amazing - escargot and baked oysters for my appetizer.
Torn between the duck breast and the filet mignon I decided on the filet because of pairing with a 2020 Husch Cabernet Sauvignon. Absolute attention to detail.
Omg, I’m in filet mignon heaven! They aim to impress and come through in every aspect. This is a true multi star experience.
Now for the par excellence - pictures will only do a part of the story as the flavors will define it all - my dessert order was taken by the owner, just wow!
I’ve found my new favorite culinary heaven spot!
Dessert needs completely satisfied with the owner offering me a paired port to my choice of chocolate pot d crème.
Outstanding!
Considering where Michelin has awarded stars, this restaurant more than deserves a star - more than any other I know in this area.
Great restaurant with a great view. I’ll say it is pricey but everything was fabulous!
I did the three course bistro special. It came with a blackberry salad, Gnocchi with rabbit sausage, and a chocolate crème dessert.
All three were fantastic!
My wife got the filet, it was cooked perfect and overall she liked it. The seasoning used on top was different but good she said.
We ordered and shared a bottle of wine. You get more instead of buying by the glass. Plus what you don’t drink you can take back with you.
It’s worth the visit!
This was our third meal at Ledford. We eat there for date nights, birthdays and when we feel like splurging. The staff is a perfect mix of professional and casual. The dining room is situated with a beautiful ocean view, even when the fog rolls in and out. The food. The food! Absolutely the best Filet Mignon. Amazing halibut. Legit gnocchi. Beet salad is multi textural and mixes at least 6 specific flavors. The warm bread. The dessert!! We have always had an amazing experience. Put Ledford on your bucket list. It’s back on mine
I was surprised to find a restaurant in California where I wanted to try VIRTUALLY EVERYTHING from the menu! I ended up trying out Oysters, Snails, Rabbit, Latte and Dessert, and even got myself a Filet Mignon to go! Freshly cooked bread is getting a special reward! The owners are doing a really good job. All the food that I ordered was so delicious that I cannot wait to come back.
A very busy French influenced restaurant with some well crafted dishes. Normally their service is impeccable. We caught them on a busy Sunday when they were understaffed.
Found this place by chance searching on Resy. Did a reservation not expecting much, even though reviews were solid. Came to the place about 30 minutes before reservation, yet they sat us in a nice window table with an amazing view of the Pacific. Most tables have this amazing view. The service was friendly, on time and helpful. The food was amazing. I ordered the Filet Mignon, and I cannot remember when I had such a great piece of meat. It was tender almost to the point to melt in my mouth. The outside was charred but the inside was almost butter. I had it medium-rare. The shank was superb too. The vegetables and potatoes were super tasty and complemented the proteins nicely. The restaurant will be a superb alternative for anyone visiting the Mendocino area. I cannot recommend enough.
We came here to celebrate our anniversary and boy it didn't disappoint! The service was great, the food was superb and the ambiance was perfect. Their bread is good we ended up buying a loaf each.
We had a beautiful evening at the Ledford House. We made our reservation early so we could have a cocktail while watching the sunset. The views can't be beat when it comes to watching the sunset. Tony took us to our table and checked in on us several times during our dining experience, as he did with all the guests. Tim was our waiter and our photographer 🙂 he was really good. Our food was delicious. And you can't forget about the fresh baked bread! I think I got the best deal in town with the Bistro Special for $30. It came with a salad, a main course and dessert.
If you are in the area I highly recommend you plan to have dinner here.
A wonderfully memorable meal! So many good things to say about this place. I will start first with the drinks. The bartender was not only very personable She helped my wife and I pick out the perfect wine and cocktail. The server pointed us to escargot and duck pate for appetizer then the 3 course meal which included was a duck lasagna. Everything came out at just the right time and tasted wonderful! The view was spectacular! We even got to watch the fog roll in. When we left we were greeted by at nicest cat who required belly rubs before we left. All in all a magical evening!
