We visited Backwoods Inn for the first time since we were in town for a wedding. This place has delicious food! We had mushrooms appetizers, got a rib eye, the broaster chicken, my son got a grilled cheese. The drinks are good and the bar is very nice. The ambiance is dope! The displays are beautiful, pictures on the wall are great. Very original restaurant with wood chips on the floor. The service is top notch! Staff is super nice, friendly, always with a smile. Our server Joann is on it just like James!! Wonderful people and always making sure you’re taken care of! We wanted to stay longer but we had to attend the rest of the wedding event nearby. This is a place you must visit and enjoy! Thank you for a great experience Backwoods Inn 🙂

I love history. Atmosphere. Vibe. Backwoods has all three covered in spades. You feel the place has been here for decades because yeah, it has but it is also very clean, very well maintained and in great shape, from tables to booths to the bar and everything in between. We just went for a drink and dessert. The creme brulee was delicious and drinks well made and potent, my favorite combination. Bartender was super friendly. All in all a great place to eat, drink and be merry. We will be back for the full dinner experience.

This was a first time back in many years. The staff is really great. Our server Anthony was awesome. We had one dish that not prepared as expected and he took care of it with no issues. Food is good and desserts were very tasty.

Backwoods Inn still has the best Prime Rib, thick cut and juicy! We had a party of 6 and were seated quickly. Everyone from the Hostess to the wait staff are amazing. Never felt rushed and never had an empty glass. The bartender made amazing drinks. It has been a few years since we last had dinner at the Backwoods Inn but we definitely think it’s even better than before.

Ambiance great, steak and stuffed baked potato very good, except no veggies? I pay almost $40 for a steak and no veggies? Potato skins appetizer completely tasteless. Cheese bread not that much better. Service lousy, waitress short, dismissive and unavailable, if not for helper busgirl who was wonderful, we would have walked out! We were on a tight schedule and waitress refused to take order until AFTER appetizer was served. When meal arrived, my plate was plopped down in front of me, she said “enjoy” and walked off. Not, can I get you anything else, steak sauce, etc and we relied totally on busgirl for everything!

I rarely post reviews but this restaurant deserves 5 stars. The atmosphere was so relaxing and me and my fiancé both loved the retro decor. Service and food was also very good and that can be hard to find at some restaurants these days. We would definitely come back again

Been going to Backwoods for 30 years, just had the worst dinner. 2 of us sent our steaks back twice, both over cooked and cold . Service was acceptable but the group behind us was very loud and foul mouthed, no one did anything about it after we mentioned the situation to the hostess.

I had not been here in over 20yrs so meeting up with friends over some choice steaks and great conversations. Our server was fantastic and a great sport having to deal with our rowdy group. This place is iconic

Surf & turf is delicious and the twice baked potatoes never disappoint. I always make sure to get a bowl of clam chowder- best around. The garlic bread is sooooo good that we always get 2 orders. My son chose the sirloin which was cooked perfectly and very flavorful. We always sit in Rita’s section because she is just AWESOME. This is one of my FAV spots in Santa Clarita….. Trust me you’ll love it ……oh yeah the bar is fantastic and have some great wines as well.
