Quite literally the best deli around. From delicious prepacked salads and desserts to fresh bbq meats there is no shortage of good eats. We love the sandwiches too, they are really big, one is probably big enough to share if you grab a salad too. Great beverage selection, snacks and deviled eggs, too! We've ordered the tri-tip dinner many times and it never disappoints.

It was busy, but not crazy as it was past peak lunch hours. The inside space is nice, clean, a cute gourmet shop with wine, various honey, crackers, salads, and of course the deli. For food, we ordered the pork in sauce BBQ sandwich, hot dog, and a side of baked beans. There are separate areas where you order first, then pay, then wait for your food. Once we paid, we were handed the baked beans, which were piping hot. It was still quite busy at the front and we ended up waiting about 25 min before our sandwiches came out. The wait wasn't the problem, but both items were cold when we got them. The sandwich had actually been ready and sitting there for about 15 min before the hot dog came out. We even had to ask them to swap out the baked beans they gave us earlier because they were room temp by then. Cold food aside, the pork in sauce had a lot of fat and was way too saucy (maybe ask for sauce on the side). The hot dog which was what we waited 25 min for was just...a hot dog with way too much mayo and ketchup. With the long wait, I'm confused why our food wasn't hot when it came out. I may give it another try, but first experience wasn't great.

The service sucked, I requested BBQ sauce for my wife's wings of course that was missing and our server was too busy feeding her face and socializing with her coworkers so I had to walk back to the kitchen and get it myself. They weren't at all busy so there was no reason for this, I can see why they weren't busy. The prices are way too high for what it is. I have no problem paying for good food and service but the $100 price tag for 2 chicken sandwiches, 1 chicken wings, 1 ice cream, and 1 16oz IPA that was all nasty horrible with bad service is just not right.

    This was such a major disappointment! I came here on a Sunday evening with my boyfriend before…read moregoing to a concert at Mystic Theatre. I had been to the block before about a few years earlier and remember it being lively and fun filled with a handful of food options and a packed bar. This time, the establishment was almost completely empty with only two food options: the barbecue or the pizza. Both menus were extremely limited in terms of available options. I went with the barbecue platter and my boyfriend went with two slices of pepperoni pizza. While the pizza was decent, but nothing to write home about, I would never order that barbecue platter again. First of all, the mac & cheese that it came with was more like overcooked buttered noodles without seasoning. The pulled pork and the coleslaw tasted old as if it had been sitting out at room temp. I also thought it was weird that they gave me potato chips as another side, but to eat their own. The only thing I actually enjoyed were the side of pickles and who knows if those were even made or from a jar. It was cold outside, so we decided to sit under the enclosed portion of the building and flies swarmed us - they were everywhere and we were continuously swatting our hands around to try to get any relief. It was miserable experience and as soon as we were done eating, we just wanted to leave. I can see why people were not here after the disappointment my boyfriend and I felt.

This is a shared outdoor event space with restaurants, bars, and stage for live music. There was a good amount of people there, probably gets busier during events. I asked the bar about the brewery and was told there was currently only one selection from them on tap which was disappointing. It wasn't the most comfortable place to enjoy a beer either. Even if there had been more to experience, I probably wouldn't have bothered going back. One other note, the restrooms are singles and with so many people there was a long wait to use one. I'd imagine that'd be worse when busy.

The team there were personable, attentive and genuinely cared about giving their guests a great experience. We enjoyed the Caesar salad and calamari for apps, the teres major steak and fried chicken for dinner and then the lemon cheesecakes and peanut butter chocolate cheesecake for dessert. Our child is still just a baby but this restaurant is kid friendly but is still a good venue for couples looking for a date night. The only complaint I would have would be the people smoking outside of The Big Easy next door.

Talk about happy tastebuds. Our main dish was a beautiful salmon fillet prepared perfectly with just a hint of lemon rubbed on, and presented on a bed of shelled brussel sprouts lightly roasted. The coup de gras was the dessert: a slice of peanut butter and a flourless chocolate cake. Luis recommended a sangiovese for my wife and she enjoyed it immensely. This restaurant I would proudly recommend to all my friends. I would have rated it higher than a five if I could have.

    We were on our way back from our Saturday trip north when we reached Petaluma and decided to stop…read moreat Lagunitas for a cold beer and some food. It had been a while since we had last come here, so it was fun to be back and enjoy some of our favorite beers. It was a beautiful day, and they had live music. They also had a couple of large-screen TVs set up showing the World Cup game. Our server was very helpful, answering our questions about beer and bringing us a couple of samples before deciding what to order. I asked for my favorite light beer, DayTime, and we decided to share an order of chicken wings, fries, and their P-Town Chop Salad. The beer was as good as I remembered, and the food was well-made and delicious, especially the wings (with Buffalo sauce). They allow dogs, as long as they are well-behaved and on a leash, so our little guy had fun saying hello to a couple of dogs that were sitting nearby in between his breaks from begging for treats from the table. We spent a couple of hours there before heading home.
