Most people that dedicate their careers to the restaurant business are motivated by a singular subject, FOOD. Our passion at River’s End is all the things that go into creating JOY. From a very young age, my mother and father enjoyed celebrating at our family home. My parents were both blue-collar workers who didn’t have regular hobbies. Instead, they brought JOY to their friends and family! Evening festivities would start with cocktails in the family room, then would transition into enjoying a carefully planned dinner menu, and they would end with dessert and songs by the fire pit into the wee hours of the morning. They taught me the genuine meaning of hospitality. During my early life journey, I came across this “Shangri-La” called the River’s End – but for me, this was just the start of my dream. The River’s End stayed in my mind for over seven years before we were finally able to purchase this iconic place in 1998. From the beginning, we’ve brought fresh concepts to our Sonoma coast restaurant, from seasonal menus to local sourcing and sustainable and responsible purchasing from our community.
