Boathouse Cantina

Our Story

At Boathouse, we're not just a restaurant - we're a community. For over 30 years, our owners, Ray and Penny Kitson, have called Salida home. With a passion for serving the best food and drinks, they've built a team of dedicated staff who love living and working in this beautiful setting. Our philosophy is simple: take care of the planet, take care of ourselves, and take care of our community. We believe in using sustainable products, supporting local farmers, and giving back to the community through charitable donations and volunteer work.

Our Cuisine

Our menu is a fusion of American favorites and Baja Mexican-inspired delights. From delicious appetizers to hearty burgers, tacos, and burritos, there's something for everyone. We're proud to serve hormone- and steroid-free chicken, bison, and beef, sourced from local farms whenever possible. Our produce is organic, and we're committed to reducing our carbon footprint by minimizing waste and using eco-friendly products.
