The bread basket is the only thing I care about here. They serve it with three different spreads - a whipped butter, some kind of herby cheese, and a sweet chili jam. The chili jam on the warm focaccia is the move.

The pork chop is excellent. The service is attentive without being overbearing, which made for a very comfortable meal.

Tried the Texas dry rub ribs this time, and the portion was definitely generous. The peanut butter crunch cake was on the menu, so I had to get a slice. The lighting in here is just right&mdash;not too dim, not too bright. Made for a really relaxed dinner.

Been coming here for years, and the smoked salmon is always spot on. That special sauce in the SLT sandwich never misses.

The iced coffee with chicory was so good. Really strong flavor, not too sweet. Just what I needed on a hot day. Staff were nice.

The server was really attentive, which was nice. The dog pictures on the walls are a fun touch. Food was solid.

The outdoor grill burger was pretty good. Fresh, tasty meat and a decent bun. A bit pricey for what it is, but I&#39;d get it again if I&#39;m nearby.

Been coming here for years. The gingerbread donut is still a solid choice, just like it always was. Place has that old-school feel, which is nice.

The chicken and waffles portion was huge, I could barely finish it. Our server was really good, walked us through the whole menu which was helpful. Solid spot for a filling meal.

The salmon here is top-notch. Perfectly cooked, flaky and moist. My kids devoured the spaghetti and garlic bread. Quick service, got my order in and out fast during the lunch rush. Solid spot for a quick, quality bite.

The specialty pizza was a bit pricey, but you can taste the quality in the fresh toppings. The crust was perfectly crisp, made by hand. I appreciated that the server checked in just once, letting me enjoy the meal without interruption.

Friendly staff, made our big group feel welcome. The live music on Sunday was a nice touch, really added to the vibe. Service was on point all night.

Kelli was awesome. She suggested the perfect appetizer and a steak cooked exactly how I like it. The birthday ice cream was a really nice touch. Service like that makes a difference.

The half-slab rib dinner was solid. The meat fell right off the bone. I paired it with their house red, a bold Zinfandel that stood up nicely to the rich, smoky sauce. A good match.

Fair price for generous scoops, and the pineapple Dole Whip is a nice touch.

Stopped by for their lunch combo. Solid portion, actually pretty tasty for the price. Parking was easy. Good spot when you just want a quick, no-fuss meal.

Loved the upstairs area, it&#39;s a nice quiet spot away from the counter. The espresso was just right for me - smooth, not too bitter or sharp. A solid little find.

The holiday special was $25. The roast chicken had a crispy skin and the gravy was rich. Good portion for the price.

The coconut shrimp is a total winner. Perfectly crispy with that sweet coconut crunch, and the dipping sauce is just right. Could eat a whole plate of those.
