OUR COMMITMENT
Update January 3rd 2025-
Due to the high cost of labor, workers comp, taxes, PGE as well as other circumstances our last dinner service was December 31st 2024.
Myself and the Ironwood Team have loved serving our community for the last 10 years! Going forward I will be teaching cooking classes. You can still call 707-759-4297 and leave a message, I will return your call. You can also visit our Facebook page for updates.
Our first class will be Saturday Jan 11th 2025, from 10am til noon. Learn how to make our American Clam Chowder, our most popular soup :).
Thank you for all your kindness and joy!
See you soon,

THE STORY OF IRONWOOD
"I cook because of the intimate connection that it creates with people; few interactions come close to that."
- Chef Megan Smith
One special day a few years ago, Megan was on a drive with her Dad who lives on Oahu, when she asked about the occasional evergreen trees that look out of place amongst the tropical plants. Her Dad told her they were Ironwood trees, not indigenous to Hawaii; Megan was curious and taken by their beauty. She discovered the trees are not invasive but rather are beneficial to where they grow; improving soil quality, bearing edible fruit and providing wood great for cooking and building. That is the foundation of Ironwood American Bistro; to be beneficial to the community and beyond.
