Dining

You won't find any chain restaurants in Nevada City. What you will find is an amazing selection of independent, locally-owned and operated restaurants offering the best in breakfast, lunch and dinner. Some of our restaurants have been recognized as among the very best in the region.

From fresh and local California cuisine to Italian, Mexican, Asian and many other ethnic choices, Nevada City offers more than 20 different restaurants sure to satisfy every appetite.

Begin the evening at one of three downtown wine tasting rooms. After dinner, enjoy the live music and dancing offered at our restaurants and watering holes. Three downtown coffee houses and a tea room will perk up your mornings.
