We have dined here about 5 times now, and just love coming here. I am a steak guy, and that is all I order when we come here. They only have two on the menu, and that is all they need… a bone-in rib eye and the filet mignon. I have had both, and every time they are cooked right and taste great. My favorite, the filet, is absolutely perfect! My wife usually has the scallops, as she isn’t a fan of steak. Of course, they do have other things on their menu, but we haven’t had anything else. We know what we like, and we know where to go to get what we like! To complete the picture, the entire staff, from the manager down to the servers, are the best! We highly recommend you give The Clinkscale a try. I guarantee you won’t be disappointed!

Our house-made desserts of creme brulee, award winning Fig & Pecan Pie with citrus cheese ice cream, and the delectable Chocolate-Dipped Bacon S'mores.

Wonderful restaurant with Justin Beckett at the helm. I have eaten at several Michelin 1 star restaurants in CA that don’t handle a candle to Becketts Table.

The Uptown go-to (or to-go, if that's your fancy). Brimming with quality seafood, pristine cuts of meat, and fresh vegetables done just right, The Neighborly is the elevated neighborhood spot you've been looking for. Slide into a rich, tufted leather booth, or grab a seat at our bustling bar, either way the drinks are cold and the food just right.

Fabulous friendly service by Ashton. Ate outside on patio with misters keeping us cooler. Enjoyed the burrata & French Fries as an appetizer with various sauces for dipping. Our entrees were delicious and nicely prepared . Two of ordered the famous chop salad, and two others ordered the poke Bowls , delicious with nice presentation. Really great feature of the day warm butter cake, divine. We’ll be back soon, eager to try their brunch;)
