River Grill at The Alisal is the perfect place to enjoy breakfast, lunch or dinner. Originally intended as a snack bar for the clubhouse serving breakfast and lunch, it soon became one of the most popular eating places in the community. A year after opening, The River Grill began serving dinner and its popularity has continued to rise among locals and visitors alike. Besides a dining room, the Grill offers banquet and outdoor bar-b-que facilities. However, the Grill’s main assets are superb food, excellent service, and an extraordinary setting.

High vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, a huge river-rock fireplace, and Old West/Native American decor give The Grill a comfortable, relaxed atmosphere. Large picture windows provide panoramic views across the expansive patio and golf course to the Santa Ynez River and Alisal Hills beyond, giving this restaurant an ambiance unequaled in the Santa Ynez valley.
Full breakfasts are served seven days a week and Brunch on Sunday. Lunch and Dinner menu items include unique salads, a variety of excellent pasta selections, and sizzling grill specialties. The Grill has a full bar and offers wines from several local and other California wineries.
Native Frenchman, Executive Chef Pascal Godé, is the genius behind the outstanding menu at both Alisal Ranch and the River Grill. Trained on the French Riviera, Chef Godé brought his cooking skills to the U.S. where he has been honored with numerous culinary awards. The River Grill’s highly competent and friendly staff will make your dining experience a pleasure whether you are eating breakfast before a round of golf, lunch after shopping in town, or seeking a quiet, relaxing dining experience.
