I had the pleasure of dining with my family at Rainbird for Thanksgiving dinner, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the thoughtfully curated menu to the perfectly paired drinks, every detail reflected the chef’s dedication to showcasing the agricultural bounty of the Valley. The sweet potatoes were a standout—both forward-thinking and deeply rooted in tradition, serving as a beautiful homage to the seasonal ingredients and the region’s rich heritage. This harmonious blend of creativity and respect for local produce elevated the entire meal, making it a memorable celebration of the season and the area’s culinary identity. The dessert, crafted in-house by the pastry chef, was a delightful finale to the meal. Its rich flavors and impeccable presentation perfectly capped off an already exceptional dining experience. I hope the chef considers hosting Thanksgiving dinner—or even lunch—again in the future, as this thoughtful and delicious offering is truly something to look forward to. Let me know if you’d like any further adjustments!

The food was great and everyone was very accommodating.

The service was good and they fixed mistakes once identified. The experience was great with showing Friends and trivia. The chicken and waffle is not as it used to be.

So we were visiting a friend in Oakdale and this place wasn't there when we last visited in 2022. Since it had great reviews and was only a mile away we decided to visit. I started with a smoked Cowboy Old Fashioned and Ysabel had a Cucumber Mule. Both were well crafted and tasty. Our friend Anamaria had the Cowboy Burger which she enjoyed very much. Ysabel had the Chicken Picata and I had the 14oz Wagyu NY Steak. Our dinners were beautifully plated and delicious. We had a couple of perfect wines with our meal. For dessert wen split a Butter Cake which was decadently delicious! Truly a wonderful meal in a beautifully laid out restaurant!

Making the reservation was the hardest because you couldn’t just call.
