The Slough House Kitchen

Indulge in a Culinary Escape

The Slough House Kitchen is a charming dining establishment just outside of Folsom. The restaurant is located inside an old gold rush-era farmhouse surrounded by beautiful herb and vegetable garden landscapes. The inside has warm wood walls and crisp white tablecloths. The walls of this old building must hold many stories of a bygone time. The restaurant is decorated with black and white photos of the home, the families that lived and worked there, the history of the house, and the area of Sloughhouse. The shelves, bar, and side tables are accented with jars of pickled goodness with the lids adorned with old fabric and vintage ribbon.

The restaurant is cozy and welcoming with rustic decor that adds to the overall dining experience. Guests can sit inside the dining room or outside on the covered patio where they can enjoy the beautiful sunset overlooking nature and the creek while sipping a glass of their locally curated wines or a special vintage direct from Moldova.

Owners Slavic Lisagor (also the Chef) and his wife Alisa come from Moldova in Eastern Europe and they bring their native flavors with them in amazing dishes with exotic flair like their burrata with sea buckthorn berries, pork schnitzel with potato wedges and dipping sauces, cioppino, and barramundi served in rustic dishwear. 

They are famous for their sourdough bread, homemade pasta, and pickled ingredients. Farm-to-fork fruits and veggies are pulled straight from their garden out front and added directly to the dishes or put in jars for pickling in their well-stocked basement. In Moldova, they pickle everything like cucumber, apples, capers, tomatoes, watermelon, cabbage, red pepper, jalapeno, and more.

It's worth the short drive to experience the history of the place and be treated with such flavorful and creative culinary flavors. SloughHouseKitchen.com
