Went here to try a different eatery than the one near our motel. Firstly we were seated promptly and the wait staff came and took our orders right away. My spouse got the mahi mahi tacos and I got the clam chowder in a sourdough bowl. The tacos were good, light and tasty and had a good melding of flavors. The clam chowder was loaded with bacon which was good but it over powered everything else in the chowder. I still ate it all and the bread bowl though. We decided to end our meal with the beignet. It was quite a bit of a wait for them but they arrived looking golden brown dusted with powdered sugar. The first bite was great until we got to the middle that had some uncooked dough in both of pieces. We brought this to the attention of our waiter who looked perplexed and said that he's never seen anyone send them back before. A new batch was made up in record time and they were cooked perfectly and delicious. The food was just ok and I would probably not go back except for the delicious beignets!

The buffalo cauliflower bites, beer-battered fries, and burger were all good. The orange chicken salad was big and good; only remark was they forgot to dress it. Our waitress was clearly inexperienced but that just made it adorable. The atmosphere of the Lodge, taken as a whole, with the lobby, gift area, trails is great. The outdoor river side dining is nice. Bars inside and out. Drinks were reasonably priced but the prices of the food offset that.

The food was good, the waitress was super nice, the place was comfortable and best part is the proximity to all the action. Loved the awesome view of the redwoods outdoors. Would definitely come back whenever in the area.

I'm very surprised this place has a 3.7, it was really good! My friends and I had a hard time finding a place to eat for dinner while we were driving through Big Sur, and we were extremely hungry and decided to eat at Homestead, and it was such a pleasant surprise! I got the hot chicken sandwich and it was tasty, it was the right level of spice (like a medium, wasn't wanting anything super spicy on a vacation day) and the service was fantastic! It's definitely a bit on the pricier side but it's in a lodge and there's really not many places nearby. I will say the onion rings were very mid, not much flavor at all and not worth the up-charge...

None of the food was good. We had a Ceasar salad that was very warm "charred" I guess but just gross. Our kids had the $12 Mac and Cheese but it was definitely Kraft Mac and Cheese, and it wasn't even freshly made...My wife had the eggplant rotalini, it tasted like it was filled with cottage cheese from a tub. I had the Half chicken for $32, just tasteless....

This place charges fine dining prices, but do yourself a favor and get the cup of noodle from the shop for dinner, about the...
