It was fine but needed balance in the ingredients. 3 kinds of cheese (just a couple of shaved pieces, not marked, so we were guessing what each was), 3 pieces of sliced baguette, salami thinly sliced and cut into pieces (!), a couple of rolled prosciutto, a few candied pecans, and some nutty rice crackers. ($20) We've had better. They had "1" more special left of tri tip steak pieces in a wine sauce with braised carrots and roasted potatoes. Quite good and well seasoned. We sliced it and split it between us. The person who served us appeared to be an owner and she said they will be revamping the menu for winter, adding some comfort food and more complete meals. We'll be back.

When we entered we looked at the entrance to the restaurant for someone to ask about seating. There…read morewere absolutely no customers in the dining room area ~noon we asked about seating at the front desk and were referred to the bar. We asked about seating in the bar and we were told they weren't seating customers in the dining room. I'm very hard of hearing so I usually avoid loud places like the plague but at the time the bar was pretty quiet. We were seated far from the windows which was really the reason we always travel the ~140 mile round trip over from Hope, ID for to see the tamarack's in the fall golden colors. We ordered and there had been a large group seated and they re-arranged the tables to accommodate them beside us. They were very loud, so much so that my wife and I seated beside each other couldn't hear anything. Our appetizer came and the mains were delivered ~1 minute later. We now had a choice eat the appetizer and let the mains go cold or eat the appetizer. I really wanted to just ask the waitress to box up our food so we could get the hell out of there but we shut up ate the cold food, paid the tab and on the way out found guests seated in the nice quiet main dining room. My family vacationed together at Priest from 1957 to 1968 every year without fail and we were in and around Hill's regularly over those years and ever since. Often we go over and stay a weekend or just drop in for a meal. The prices have steadily gone up and IMO the facilities, food and service have been steadily going down. Today, forever iced the cake we won't be gong back, sad.

View is relaxing and pretty. But the experience with how we were treated and served was very…read moredisappointing! Your can tell the waitress didn't want to be there . Just by the look her on face. She wasn't friendly and we actually felt like we were putting her out. We arrived about An hr after they opened. There was only 3 table there before the three of us arrived. It was not crowded at all. We have family who live around this area and this is a favorite place of hers. She messed up on her order and argued with major attitude and blamed it on our family member. Didn't even try to correct the issue or apologize. Not even I'm sorry if I heard it differently how can I correct this. Her attitude was eat it since that is how I heard the order. The other people at the table heard the order correctly. It upset our family member and put a damper on our meal . It was embarrassing she was being spoken to by the server. When all she said is this wasn't what I ordered. The server never came by to see if everything was okay once she brought out the food My husband had to go find her to ask for his toast. Never apologized and seemed like she just didn't want to be there. There were other servers there, so they weren't under staffed. The only time she smiled and was polite was when she brought us our bill. If I ever go back and see her I would ask for another server! I don't write reviews like this but this was sooo totally unacceptable!! Sad but the one star is all due to her, the food was a 3 star. I would give zero stars if I could!

We stopped by for lunch today, giving this small-town bar a second chance after a previous…read moredisappointing visit. Unfortunately, the experience was even worse this time. When we arrived, we asked if there was patio seating. The owner rudley told us we could sit outside, but that she didn't have time to deal with serving us on the patio and that we would need to come back inside to place our order and pick up our food ourselves. After deciding what we wanted, we returned inside to order and waited quite a while without being acknowledged. Another customer eventually spoke with the cook, who nicely told us someone would be out shortly. During that time, we watched the owner deliberately ignore us while continuing to assist other customers. When another couple entered, the owner greeted them and explained there would be a wait. We simply asked how long the wait might be for us. Her response was shockingly rude, dismissive, and completely unprofessional. Rather than offering an estimate or even a polite acknowledgment, she bluntly told us that we could leave and go to the next town. The tone and manner in which she said it made it clear that our business was neither wanted nor appreciated. We later confirmed that this person was the owner. Based on our two visits, it felt as though customers who aren't locals are treated as an inconvenience rather than welcomed guests. In all our years of dining out, it is rare to encounter someone so openly discourteous to paying customers. We left without ordering and will not be returning. Customer service matters, and unfortunately, this business fell far short of even basic courtesy. The owner's behavior was not just unfriendly, it was exceptionally rude and left us feeling unwelcome from start to finish.

The unfortunate part about this review is that the food is so good, but being told to go somewhere…read moreelse when simply asking how long the wait is sounds like a great suggestion when the bartender woman had just as nasty of an attitude the first time we were here... we will indeed take our service elsewhere. And yes I am the woman who walked in with my dog and asked if there was a patio she could sit on. I've walked into countless bars and restaurants, stopped at the front door and asked if there was a patio, never had an employee been so rude about it. 6/20 1 pm.
