History

Established in 1973.

"Silverado Canyon.....the name itself almost tells the story of mining days." This is the colorful history behind the restaurant on the hill in Orange County....It pictures mines and wealth; it portrays tales of hope and faith in search of silver. Along the Silverado, eager miners drove their tunnels, all in search of signs of precious metal. The sleepy canyon settlements idled quietly until one day in the fall of 1877, Hank Smith and William Curry came upon silver ore. An article published in the Los Angeles Times heralded the discovery of silver and from that point on men rushed into the canyon seeking fame and fortune. Creaking wagons, spring wagons, carts, dilapidated old surries and shiny rigs from livery stables clattered over the rocks at the crossings into the new found El Dorado. With the arrival of prospectors, new shops, hotels and saloons emerged. It is in the tradition of the Old Silverado grubberies and saloons that the Orange County Mining Company was patterned.
