Description: Sequoia is more than just a restaurant. It's a destination, a refuge from the ordinary, where anything is possible and every event makes cherished memories. Throughout the year, this beautifully restored mansion is vibrant with occasions—small and large, public and private—that prove the value of tradition, the joy of cordial living, and the deep satisfaction of delicious food and drink shared with fond companions. Whether for a special reason, or a simple one, come to Sequoia. Her charm will embrace you, her vibrant spirit engage you. There's no place like Sequoia. She is the California Gold Country's blossoming treasure.

The Sequoia in Placerville is a "must go to" fine restaurant. The restaurant was originally a private dwelling and then became the home of the Placerville ELKS LODGE for many years. The conversion to the SEQUOIA RESTAURANT is fantastic, retaining most of the building's historical decor and surroundings. The menu is superb and reasonably priced. Service from the receptionist to... More

A tourist trap with a staff that is tired and doesn't care and food from the 80's that most of the time is inedible. More

We were looking forward to a fabulous anniversary dinner with them. They are CLOSED as of January and have been bought by another company which does not keep open hours at the restaurant. What a disappointment! It's not like Placerville has a lot of fine dining options in the first place. More

My husband and I had dinner here with friends and the food and service were fantastic. The steaks were tender and flavorful and cooked perfectly, the salmon was perfect, and the shrimp were perfect. We had the full dinner and the salads and soups were wonderful. The desserts were too good! What I like about Sequoia is the food is... More

I've eaten at Sequoia's many times. After my last three dining experiences, I think I'll eat elsewhere. First time I ordered Chicken Oscar, it was great. A chicken breast stuffed with crab meat and asparagas served with bernaise sauce . Nicely prepared vegetables on the side. It was excellent. Chicken was moist with the fresh sweet crab taste and a...

We have enjoyed lunch at the Sequoia Inn, located in an 1853 mansion, several times but today was our first Sunday Brunch. When you are seated, you are brought a basket of cut-up pastries (so that you can enjoy several types) and seasonal fruit with yogurt and granola. You then chose from a number of breakfast and lunch entrees, all... More
