Fine vegetarian and vegan dining on the Mendocino Coast is offered at The Ravens restaurant at the dog-passionate Stanford Inn by the Sea. Even if you are not a vegetarian, the food will satisfy and impress.
Visit the award-winning The Ravens for their dishes based on locally harvested products from seaweed to chanterelles. Ingredients are sustainable and organic and most produce is from regional organic growers or the Stanford Inn’s California Certified Organic Farm. The wine list is comprised primarily of wines produced from certified organic vineyards, biodynamic vineyards, or those using sustainable, traditional farming practices.
Your well-behaved and sociable dogs are welcome at tables in the lobby dining area. The Inn’s dogs live in the lobby, so please keep in mind potential doggie interactions. You can also stroll the dog-friendly grounds at Stanford Inn. Check out the dinner menu here.
