We loved this restaurant. The food is outstanding. We really enjoy what the new owner has done to the restaurant from the decor to the menu/food. My favorite is the Salmon or Filet Mignon. The Twilight Dinner is an excellent deal. I must also add the bread! Yummy and so fresh. We just tired their new breakfast and it was... more

Located near Eldorado wine country, Zachary Jacques is a Jewel of a Find. The food, made with quality fresh ingredients, is outstanding. The filet of beef was done to perfection, and we loved the Belgian endive salad - very unique. The "Twilight Dinner," which included a yummy dessert, at $17.95 per person is a real bargain. The service was excellent,... more

I had a nice dinner at a Christmas party here and swore I would go back. So mid Feb. we went in for the earlybird meal and was not disappointed. We had a nice acorn squash soup that was seasoned well and duck confit for a main course with marvelous brussell sprouts. My wife had a nice piece of salmon... more

This restaurant used to be a wonderful five star dining experience. The food was always exceptional. However, it was sold several years ago and the restaurant has changed dramatically since then. The first year or so the new chef prepared excellent, fresh and innovative entrees. Unfortunately, it appears the owners decide to upgrade the look of the restaurant itself, both... more

What time I have spent near Placerville, was spent in the woods camping. But little did I know that nestled in the woods, off the unbeaten path, would be one of the best restaurants I've ever had the pleasure of dining at! My boyfriend surprised me with a weekend away for my birthday, and had heard of Zachary Jacques via... more

Zachary Jacques is good, but not great, food. I had the tasting menu and some of it. like the pate, salad, and salmon were nice, but not phenomenal. The pate was the only real "French" part of the menu for me, the rest was more like Nouvelle American. The steak was half fat, for a tasting menu I would expect... more

Best French food! A wonderful date place, or a nice place for a family dinner. Pricey though. more

My wife and I visit ZJs as often as possible. The atmoshere is relaxed. The service is superb. And the food is exceptional. It's a little out of the way, but if you order the Sampling Dinner, I can gaurantee that you will not be disappointed. You get a 5 or 6 course meal (I lost track of the courses)... more

We had a party of 4, so I got to taste many things. The shrimp appetizer in a lime sauce was outstanding. The stuffed mushrooms were also tasty. I enjoyed the high quality steak. My daughter loved the stuffed squash blossoms. We all felt too full for dessert until we saw the dessert cart. They have a carmelized sugar confection... more
