    Friends.

    We actually loved this place!! Our Hostess Connie was excellent ask her about her Italian heritage!! Our waitress Brenda was also very nice!! Great location on the river, Brenda has worked there for 19 years! That tell you something right there. The salads & clam chowder were excellent. Definitely be back again while in Orofino!!

    Cheesecake

    What a fabulous lunch. We were greeted upon entering by two people and were allowed to choose our seat. About half of the restaurant seats are by the window with a perfect view of the river. They have a full bar but as it was lunch, so we both ordered iced tea. We shared the French onion soup and a salad. I ordered the New York steak with fries and my spouse ordered the salmon "sandwich" which just meant the salmon was served on bread. Both were prepared to perfection. For dessert we shared a cheesecake that was home made. It was better than most. I'm so happy we found this place. Kim was a great server and we would come back in a heartbeat.

    Taco salad
    Tina S.

    Clean, friendly place with outdoor dining. We had the taco salads. Positives.. lots of meat, and a nice variety of items. My husband and I both had one and our first comment as we left was (old people food). Yes, we too are old people, but I think the better comparison would be hospital food. All the ingredients were there to be a great salad, but no spices, bland. Even the salsa was bland. Side note: some like it hot, others like it cold, their taco meat in the salad was cold. Not my personal preference, I prefer it steaming hot and very spicey. The staff were very nice, serving sizes were huge, and of course only a few feet from the hotel/lodge. Great views of the river no matter where you are seated! This was the only thing we tried, so can't comment on savory dishes other than they smelled good as the waitress walked by!

    Is this medium rare?

    Went to visit family at WSU and they took us here for dinner one night. It was a great meal! Save…read moreroom for dessert, but more about that later. Started with the baked brie appetizer, which was lovely. I ordered the pork chop, which was massive, cooked perfectly (medium as it's ok to have a little pink in porkchops now) and accompaniments were flavorful. Both ordered pastas and it looked so tempting and delicious. Service is friendly. We couldnt decide on dessert so ordered the ice cream cake and apple cake/pie dessert and split. The ice cream cake is one of the best I've had. Layer of mint chocolate chip and chocolate chip, surrounded by a chocolate cookie crumble and cookie sprinkles on top. SO, SO, SO Good. The apple dessert was equally delicious and gave off Xmas / Holiday vibes. They do have espresso, though it seemed like it's not used much as the person had to check if we could order decaf cappuccinos. Those were alright and in the future, I may go without coffee or a decaf black instead. No tipping, which is the first time I've been a restaurant with this policy. It was pleasantly surprising and nice (on the bank account!)

    Went there sometime back for a family celebration. The atmosphere is excellent, a good wine list,…read morethe food was marginal, my brother ordered a dish featuring duck. They apparently just passed the duck carcus over the dish, very little duck. Its portrays its self as a high end restaurant, The servers we dressed in jeans, our served wore a plaid flannel shirts untucked. When your spending high end dollars, you should at very least expect professionalism.

    First time in Pullman and came here for a wonderful meal. Creative cocktail lists, good variety on…read morethe menu with a nice Mediterranean flare. The carbonara is rich and decadent. Lots of bacon lardons to give more depth to the pasta. Very tasty. The lamb is delicious, though the crust was a little salty for my taste. Ask for it to be medium rare + so you get the nice cool red. There are 6 lambchops served with a couscous salad and tzakiti. If you like lamb, get this. The roasted chicken is amazing. So so so good. Perfectly done with a side of kale and nice size croutons, crunchy and buttery. Ordered the dip appetizer and the pita is soft as a vessel to try 3 different dips - one is garlicky with breadcrumbs (it's more addicting than you think), feta with a roasted pepper and tzakiti. All tasty! Didn't leave room for dessert. Next time!

    Black Cypress is known as the nicest restaurant in town so many people come here for celebration…read moremeals, but I typically stop by for their Monday happy hour (half price appetizers 5-7pm) and the goat cheese panna cotta. My favorite item on their appetizer menu is the cheese plate. I don't like crackers so I've started ordering it with some extra apple slices instead of the crackers. The goat cheese panna cotta itself is delicious but the best part is that the seasonal sides are amazing and change very frequently. It's a positive example of a dish never being exactly the same. I've always had great service at the bar. The only complaint I've heard was from a grad student we know who ordered multiple items and didn't realize they forgot his entree until everyone at the table was almost done eating. Thankfully the group had plenty to talk about so they didn't mind it being a long dinner. Finally... the drinks. The only regret I've had was ordering a beer when they have such a fantastic cocktail menu. I am a fan of their non alcoholic cocktails currently but I do enjoy occasionally ordering from the main menu.

    Best pizza in Moscow. Staff are friendly, and helpful. It's a super nice atmosphere outside in the…read moresummer.

    As we came to the restaurant before 4 PM, the only things really available were salads and pizzas,…read moreso I decided to get the Funghi Pizza. First, we started with the Spinach Artichoke Dip, and I have to say this was really good The bread pieces were plentiful and really well-coated with oil, which made them pretty enjoyable to eat on their own, but especially so when the dip was included. This dip had a lot of cheese - and yet it didn't taste excessively so; rather maintain a great balance between the vegetables and the cheese in its mixture to provide a perfect complement for the bread Moving on to the main dish, I thought the pizza was pretty fantastic I'm a pretty big fan of cream/alfredo based pizza bases rather than red/tomato based ones, so by default I'm partial to this, but I'm just really impressed by the quality of the pizza here. Probably my favorite pizza taste-wise I've had is a alfredo-based pan pizza from Dominos, and while I think that tastes better due to amount of oil/butter used in that one, I think that this pizza may have the best combination of taste and quality I've seen. This manages to taste really good despite not including that amount of oil, which indicates its high quality The mushrooms are really good - they're cooked well and seem to be marinated in this sauce that's a bit of a mix between wine and tomato juice, which coats each one with a solid amount of flavor. The garlic shines through here as an omnipresent figure as well. There isn't much cheese in this pizza but what is there is pretty good - and mixes really well with the cream base to produce something that's really good tasting Also, the egg on the middle spread the yolk throughout the bottom of each slice, which tasted fantastic I do have a couple downsides with the pizza, though For one, it's a bit too thin. This leads it to be almost cracker-like, as there's really no depth to each bite. I recognize this is the traditional Italian style, but it's just a bit too thin for me - I could've used more cream / cheese with each bite, along with just more dough This results in the pizza not being very filling - which is a good thing in some respects as you can finish the entire thing without feeling stuffed - but it'll also lead you to being hungrier quickly later The second thing is that the crust was super chewy and hard - it was actually not easy to get through as my jaw would hurt halfway through finishing the crust of each piece. The price here is pretty reasonable (around 20) , and the portion size is pretty large, albeit not overly filling

    Update and rating adjustment…read more Friends from out of town wanted to eat here after seeing it. So I thought I would give it another try. Perhaps, I thought, they would do better. The bar was pretty low, after all. After sitting there a while, a young man came by and asked about what drinks we wanted. Five minutes later someone else came by and asked basically all the same things. Problems with the first one? This time I at least got my request in (never was asked the first time). Right after this, someone at the table asked for menus since we hadn't seen any yet. 15 minutes later someone came by with our drinks and asked for our order. Progress. A long wait later (26 minutes actually) the food started coming out. From walking in, to getting food was about 50 minutes. Credit given for the order all being correct. Ah, the food. I can only comment on what I and my wife got. She ordered the Philly cheese steak sandwich, gluten free. What an abomination. The bread was about 2 inches wide. And tough? It was so tough it was inedible. I tried some of the meat. I am at a loss to describe it. It seemed like it was pieces of cubed steak. And flavor? I personally do not like green peppers at all. But this sandwich's flavor wouldn't have been that objectionable as I could barely detect the green peppers. The whole thing was pretty flavorless. I ordered the Swiss mushroom burger. Can't go wrong with a simple burger. So I thought. Again, flavor issues. The bigger problem was the burger. Crunchy on the edges and definitely well-done throughout. No hint of pink. Or of any moisture. I couldn't finish it. Which was a first for me. And then the bill. My wife said that before she saw it she was going to tell me to leave no tip because of the quality of the food and the minimal service we received. But the bill had 18% "gratuity included". That was news to me. I had not noticed this mentioned anywhere. I thought about discussing it but at this point I just wanted to be done with the whole thing and leave. But the most insulting part of the bill was the line for "Additional Tip". What? No chance in hell. I would like the other tip back, please, not give more. So, because of all this, I have changed my rating. It was a 2, but now I am downgrading it to a 1. And I have learned my lesson. Nobody is going to talk me into going here again.
