    Excellent food and service. Parking is a big problem with so many spaces near the restaurant reserved for other businesses. Also be prepared to pay a 4 percent fee if using a credit card

    Excellent dinner and service. The restaurant could use a refresh, seat vinyl was worn/cracked. Perhaps train the employees to not walk through the dining room with mop and bucket of cleaning supplies while patrons are dining. Kind of a turn off.

    Enjoyed an early evening full course meal. -House chips appetizer was excellent. -2x Sweater Weather drinks. Cardamom added great flavor -Sirloin steak perfectly medium (had leftover for lunch the next day) -bison burger also perfectly medium -mushroom covered prime rib (also enough for 2 meals)=excellent. -dessert: both the lemon cheesecake and cherry pie shared for 3. Excellent Have eaten here a dozen times. I would have to think hard for criticism. If I had to reach, maybe the steak prices are a bit high. Otherwise it’s on par for anywhere these days. Disappointed Cactus closed! Bring the A1 burrito here. ;)

    My husband and I met for lunch on Valentines Day. Definitely a great place to celebrate a birthday, anniversary, holiday etc. Or just a great place to eat anytime. The food was very delicious. My husband had the bison burger with fries and I had the salmon burger special with the kale slaw. Food is also very reasonably priced. Service is outstanding. We will be back for brunch or dinner soon. Excited for patio season!!

    Clare gave us efficient, cheery and attentive service. My Seared Scallops entree was excellent: the scallops on a bed of risotto, accompanied by arugula & sun dried tomatoes, were tender, tasty & balanced, and the presentation was mouth-watering.
