Why You Should Go: According to Kermit, it's not easy being green. Try telling that to the folks at Paul Martin's American Bistro in Roseville. This organic restaurant flawlessly serves up a delicious menu of sustainable, locally sourced American fare - making it look so simple and seamless, even our froggy friend's jaw would drop. 

Why You’ll Love It: The philosophy at this uber-delicious restaurant is that great food needs three things: fresh, local, and peak-of-the-season ingredients. Each meal gets you as close to the farm as possible (without the loud animal noises), using meat raised in a humane and wholesome way, locally sourced organic produce, wild and farmed fish, artisan cheeses and products from small local purveyors. 

What to Eat: Enjoy menu classics such as the Petaluma Family Farms “Brick” Chicken featuring free-range chicken, creamy mashed potatoes, and fresh herb jus; or the Braised Short Ribs with housemade mashed potatoes, horseradish cream and beef au jus. Accompany your meal with one of 75 wines by the glass, over 100 bottles of wine,  or a seasonal fruit-infused vodka drink.
