ORANGEVALE, CA (MPG) - The Orangevale Woman’s Club is at it again!  Our new “Loyal 2 Locals” promotion recently interviewed owner, Steve Dougherty, at O’Connor’s Wood Fire Grill and Bar.  He has been at 9267 Greenback Lane, in Orangevale for 15 years.  Steve had been in the catering business for years when an opportunity arose to move his catering business to Orangevale. There he could have a full-service lunch and dinner at a family run restaurant.  In 2015, they shut down the restaurant for 6 weeks to refurbish the inside and add a brand-new bar.  Steve likes the smaller feel in Orangevale and enjoys seeing the same familiar faces.

O’Connor’s is planning on enlarging the outside patio and adding a new cover and sides to help with lessening the noise.  O’Connor’s plan for the expanded area is due to be finished sometime in April.  They also plan to add live music on the weekends. 

O’Connor’s still has the authentic Santa Maria-style barbecue dishes that you have come to love from their family restaurant, but now they also offer wood-fire pizzas, pasta dishes, such as Pesto Penne, Shrimp Scampi Linguini and Cajun Chicken Penne, gourmet burgers and a broad range of appetizers and salads. Customers have been raving about O’Connor’s signature ribs and sauces for years!  Come and experience the food and fun for yourself. 

Steve has asked all of Orangevale to remember that O’Connor’s was originally known for its catering.  Steve noted that their business has suffered and wanted to remind everyone that if you need catering, please remember O’Connor’s.  O’Connor’s is currently offering 10% off any catering order for 30 or more people.

O’Connor’s is also offering another special for outside and to-go orders: $10 OFF Your Bill When You Order Two Dinner Entrees if you say where you saw this ad.  Hours are Monday-Saturday, 11:30 a.m.-8:30 p.m., Sunday 11:30 a.m. -8:00 p.m. (916) 988-0112 or www.woodpit.com.
