Willo Steak House — Restaurant in California

We have been coming to Willo for well over the decade, and this place was always nice and serving great food, but this time, I visited Willo for the first time after the pandemic, and I was fairly disappointed. I found that our favorite stuff member Suzona was let go, and that was shame. She has been wonderful for many years. We tried to make reservation over the phone, but we witnessed bad case of attitude toward people with foreign accent, and of course, we could not make reservation. We went anyway, and it was another mistake as relatively tall man with full head of hair, kept asking us racial questions which made us uncomfortable at some point. At the end of the visit, the same guys asked us to pay 50% tip saying that much of tip is common practice in America. We had something to say about that even though the service provided by the other female service stuff members was pretty great as we were already leaving more than 20% tip but not 50%. That may have been common practice among upper class high society at special occasions, but hey we are commoners ! Overall, great food, otherwise good service, but horrible atmosphere to the point, it was bit scary to make credit card transactions at the restaurant. We had to pay all in cash and left. We may return here with our white friends, but we probably should not return here...

My mother and I are regulars at the Willo. When family or friends come to visit, they want to make sure that they have the chance to dine at the Willo. We love the rustic atmosphere. We really enjoy The variety the menu has to offer. The food is exceptional and priced fairly. All staff members are very friendly and truly make you feel at home. We always look forward to the scoop of ice cream at the end of our meal :-) Cindy Our family has been enjoying the Willo restaurant since the 80s. And as I have mentioned, it has been a very enjoyable evening out. Things have changed however. With the new ownership unfortunately we have found that several of our favorite servers some that have been there Many many years are no longer there. It wasn’t just the food that we were coming to the Willo for. We miss our favorites, and probably won’t be dining there, quite as often. it’s just not the...

Still one of the best steak houses for a hundred miles. Their menu has expanded including fish, chicken, ribs and more. Their service is excellent. It's a great place for just a one on one dinner or a family gathering or party. We've been going for over 38 years and just love it.

We had the opportunity to dine here on New Year's Eve. This time we were set up in the bar area. Very cool atmosphere. Old rustic feel with a lot of little humorous signs to read. There's an old skee ball and pool table in there too. One very noticable difference from the main dining room was how quiet it was in comparison. You definitely could hear each other. It was a nice change and we may just request it in the future. The Willo may not be an inexpensive choice when going out to dinner but we consider it a treat. For sure after seemingly two months of turkey a big ole steak was in order, and The...
