We had another chance to try an escape room at Poppy Bank Epicenter, and this time we chose the…read moreBigfoot escape room. Hosts were super friendly, just like the last time, so no complaints there at all. Overall, this escape room was much, much better than the Charlie's Candy Shop escape room. It felt much more intuitive, and the clues were written clearly, which made the experience more enjoyable. The only issue we experienced was in the second room, during the part where you use the dowsing rods to find the letters on the wall which are needed to open the safe. We weren't able to get any readings from the dowsing rods, we weren't sure if the magnets were not strong enough or if something else was affecting it. We ended up calling the host for help, and she was very nice and helpful. She gave us a hint about using a specific word on the metal board, and we immediately understood which five-letter word she meant. That hint worked perfectly for us. Other than that one part, we had a great experience and enjoyed the escape room!

Epicenter is exactly what you want it to be - a place kids can have the best time ever, and a place…read moreadults don't hate to be at. They have a good array of arcade games - we are partial to Jurassic Park though it always has a line, skee ball, basketball, the frogger clone game, the harpoon game - as well as things like trampolines (extra cost), the playground (a ball spill thingy, slides, 3 levels, a zip line, etc - also extra cost. We enjoy bowling during football games so we can watch and bowl and get boneless wings from victory house (and sometimes Bloody Marys). I've also come to watch friends play soccer at their different indoor courts. Only downside - it feels a bit like a germ fest. Lots of hand sanitizer and now I feel like I need to take some elderberry.

We passed this building several times during our stay in Santa Rosa. Entered to an empty dining…read moreroom, several locals at the bar in the adjoining room. They were enjoying themselves. A bit dark. A bit well worn. Menu had more options than I thought it would. Appetizer sampler and a salad for me. Salad was a salad. The appetizer plate left a bit to be desired. There were 2 of each app and nothing else on the plate. It seemed disjointed. Had a cocktail. Eh. All in all glad we went so now I know what it is like. I won't go back to try anything else. They're was also a very strong smell of bleach or disinfectant that was over powering.

I'm in town visiting my dad and I decided to grab a bite after getting my nails done nearby. Found…read morethis place and they had nice outdoor seating so I decided to eat here. The menu is pretty is simple American bar food; burgers, sandwiches, steak, and salads. They have a lot of options though and you can even build a burger/ sandwich. I ended up ordering the spicy chicken melt with grilled chicken, cheese and grilled peppers. I was pleasantly surprised with the quality ingredients and how yummy it was. Sometimes bar food can be pretty basic and cheap, but the peppers were nicely grilled and the chicken was juicy. I had their sweet potato fries which were really good too! They have a condiments bar with different sauces. I got the DTF sauce for my fries which was fire and some green salsa to put on my sandwich which gave it an extra kick. I had one of their summer menu cocktails and I enjoyed it. Service was great! The server/ bartender was attentive, and friendly. My dad and step mom who live here now want to try it out!

Good spot for a late night drink.

Hell yeah, the neighborhood needed a place like this. Everything at and around Montgomery Village…read morefeels so corporate, but this taproom actually feels like a laidback communal gathering place where you can relax, enjoy some beers, and even share some laughs with some strangers. They have a great selection of local beers on tap and it looks like some great cocktails too. So far I've loved the watermelon lager and the amber Mexican lager. They also have large screens, making it perfect for anyone who wants to catch a game (I was fortunate enough to first stumble upon this taproom when the World Cup was still on). What makes this place even better is that they have an amazing food truck vendor serving delicious tacos & burritos out on their spacious beautiful outdoor patio. And to me, the Mexican food they serve is far tastier than most of the popular taco truck joints in Sonoma county. Generous proportions and fair prices. All in all, I'm really impressed by the overall ambiance and service, and I'm really glad we have a place like this in the neighborhood. Wish I had started coming here a long time ago. Keep doing what you're doing, folks. Absolutely love the vibes!

Just visited Ausiello's Homeslice again, and felt it was worth updating my previous review - since…read morethat was a year ago and I hadn't included any photos in the original review. On most recent visit we had their Garden Salad and Chicken Parmigiana. Both the salad and the pasta were great! We loved the use of the three-bean salad in the Garden Salad. The Chicken parm was fresh, crispy, and the sauce was wonderfully tangy and fresh tasting. We thoroughly enjoyed the food, atmosphere, and the friendly service. We plan on making an effort to visit more often! Previous review: Only been by here a few times, as it is at the farthest end of town from where I live... That said, every time I have come, I have had great food and service. The fresh wood-oven pizzas are tasty - it is hard to beat a real wood-oven pizza. I have to say their smashburger is one of the best I have had (fries are pretty solid too!). They have a full bar, and good selection of beers and wines - so there is something for nearly everyone here. They get the basics here right - and the overall experience is pretty solid.

The missing star is because of the service which was terrible…read more The food on the other hand was great. Especially the chicken and waffles I had. I'd never had chicken and waffles before, I always thought that was a weird and silly combination, and I still think that. The waffle was okay, not crispy enough for my taste, but the honey butter served with it was very good. The standout though was the chicken. 2 deep-fried pieces that were as good of chicken as I have ever eaten in my life. The breading was flaky and crunchy while the chicken was moist and tender. I could've eaten much more as the pieces were rather small. When I was growing up, just about every restaurant I went to offered fried chicken, now I can't seem to find it anywhere. If you've been foolish enough or bored enough to read any of my other reviews, you know I don't eat beef, so I have a ton of chicken. This was some of the best.

The guy who I assume in the manager was seen walking around - he kept interrupting his folks to give them directions but didn't lift a find on helping himself. We were seated outside which was a nice larger patio. Service was extremely slow, I never got a drink refill the entire time. Food was amazing though, delicious and great flavors. It seems like this places need to staff up.

Loved it! MEAL: 1. Diablo shrimp - so amazingly delicious! Comes with a piece of baguette. Slightly wish the shrimps were hotter in temp but nothing major 2. Crispy pork belly- omg so so good! This is what I came for and I simply was not disappointed! It came with some shredded lettuce and Asian sauce that was just chef's kiss 3. Side Caesar salad - this one was just okay. The dressing just didn't taste ceasar-y enough for me. I'll skip it next time. SERVICE: absolutely phenomenal! Everyone was so unbelievably nice and attentive.
