The Forester Pub And Grill

My 2nd visit to this pub in Camino.I love German food and they have a nice selection. This time I had meatloaf, red cabbage and potato pancake. My companion had the chicken and dumplings. Both dishes delicious! They serve local wines which I love. Keeping it local. Great service even when busy. Love the tavern rooms.Check them out after wine tasting or visiting Apple Hill orchards.

The Forester Pub is my favorite restaurant in El Dorado County. Absolutely the best German/American food! The service is above and beyond, in a warm cabin like ambiance. So, thankful their still around, in Camino, CA between Pollock Pines & Placerville.

Homey wood trim work and Buck stove roaring made it cozy inside on this cold January afternoon. We split the.. Wienerschnitzel(Vee-Ner-Shnit-Sl).Tender thin breaded pork cutlet,served with a thick white wine sauce, Spaetzl with similar if not the same sauce, red cabbage & a starter salad with blue cheese. Meat was tender enough to cut with a fork,sauce was mild but had a good flavor & consistency. The Spaetzl was my favorite, fresh egg noodles in short thick spaghetti like form with the white sauce. I could have had a full meal of this.Red cabbage was cooked with apples, sweet, slightly bitter OK.Salad was pretty standard fare.Good beer selection, waitress was attentive, but allowed us to relax.

Love this place, it's not fancy but it's Camino and rustic like Camino. The food is filling and heavy but delicious and alot of it is German based. Great hospitality and service. The outside area is usually full of dogs and has a beautiful lawn to play horse shoes or let the kids play and dogs sniff around lol.

food last night was amazing !!! we always enjoy ourselves. everything is just so nicely done beautiful environment. The outside seating looks wonderful..

They revamped thier menu and did a little remodel. Love it!! Four of us enjoyed a nice dinner here earlier this week.The menu has been updated, if you had even been to St. Pauli Inn on Hwy 50 when it was in it's prime you will recognize the menu.Prices are reasonable and portion size is filling!! The remodeled interior has a great vibe and the service is very attentive.I will be eating here again!!!

Great ambience, phenomenal comfort food, fantastic service. Located in a rural little town which just adds to the mystique. What a gem!

After many years of visiting Apple Hill, I finally stopped at The Forester Pub and Grill. Their menu included some familiar German dishes which looked interesting and a nice option for a cool late fall visit. The restaurant was filling up quickly which was a good sign for this place on Carson Road in beautiful downtown Camino. Parking is decent, and they have a lot in the rear.The inside of the restaurant looks like your uncle's old cabin in a wonderful way. It has a warm and comfortable look with authentic wood stoves. I sat down and reviewed the large menu. There are lots of traditional American dishes here that seem to be popular, but I had my eye on the schnitzel. They have Jagerschnitzel and Wienerschnitzel. I chose the Wiener since the sauce seemed intriguing. A generous and loaded salad and a hot cup of coffee were quickly delivered to my table while they prepared my entree.The Wienerschnitzel was simply amazing. The meat was perfectly cooked with a nice thin breading and a sublime sauce. The spatzle were just heavenly - truly homemade and light as air even soaked in gravy. You can get red cabbage too which helps cut through the heavy fare. Towards the end, I finally squeezed the lemon on the schnitzel and was rewarded with a spectacular combination of flavors that made it easy to clean the plate.The location near all the farms in Apple Hill is more than enough reason to visit The Forester, but the amazing schnitzel is worth the drive. If the rest of the food is similar to the German options, I think this place is a true gem in the foothills.

Lovvvvve having great German food, right here in Apple Hill!! Spatzele, braised red cabbage, saurbraten and gravy...so good!

Nice place to get some tasty German food. Service is always friendly and prompt. Meals are huge!
