Spartan Grilled Cheese and Reg Truffle Fry
Chad S.

Cool atmosphere with sports on several televisions all around the space, friendly and competent service, and a wide array of food and cocktail choices. I had the Spartan Grilled Cheese with bacon, avocado, cheddar and provolone cheese on grilled sourdough. Delicious. Emily was my server and bartender and she was great! Thanks!

Food was really good the Mediterranean rice was alright. The Redeye burger was awesome. Service was pretty good the waitress was nice. However food did take awhile to come out even though there wasn't many people there. Ambiance was nice, lots of TVs.

Pizza
Cassie J.

First time here, always see the place and always wanna stop and finally did. Everything we had was amazing and we will definitely be back. Got pizza for the kids and they smashed! Then got traditional wings which were prolly some of the best I've had. Along with the French onion soup and Greek chicken skewers! Amazing! We will definitely be back!

Considering my own experience, I would say this place is underrated. There are a few blemishes for…read morewhich I almost gave them four stars. I just didn't think that would've been fair. We were seated immediately. Both the host and our waitress were very friendly and welcoming. I ordered a mixed drink which was very well done. One area that could have been improved upon was the wait times. This included for my drink. They were a little too long. They weren't outrageous. Just a little too long. When we ordered our food, I miss ordered and the waitress thankfully asked enough questions to figure out what I really wanted. Great job on her behalf. The food itself was amazing. The baked sausage Paisano was huge, piping hot, and delicious! My friend ordered a calzone which was also huge and she also enjoyed. A final note would be that they need to wipe down the folders for the checks more often.. When she put our bill on the table, there were greasy smudges over half of the folder. Not a great last impression. So overall, our experience was great. And based on how well it went I can definitely suggest others to give it a try. If I'm in the neighborhood, I can see myself coming back.

Another one bites the dust. Picked up a large pizza, traditional crust, 1/2 cheese & 1/2 cheese…read morewith sausage. It was not as good as frozen pizza. The crust wasn't good, the tomato sauce was not good, they skimped on the cheese. Luckily, there are lots of options for pizza.

I shall start off with the average meat-eating omnivore. Options galore!!! Burgers, fries and appetizers for everybody! Vegetarians are delighted here as well Moving on to vegans such as myself... they offer a delicious and I mean SCRUMPTIOUS veggie burger that I would carry out or eat at a patio table anytime! One star off for the stink of cooking animal flesh which killed my appetite and the meaty appearance of everyone's burgers did as well. The star off is also due to their inability to provide any information at all about their French fries and the cooking oil used Vegetarians and those on diets did great with their salads and appetizers Celiacs only fair a very weak okay for the gluten-free options We came here as a large work group, and the service was EXCELLENT Atmosphere was not suitable - we would not return as a group. With all of the customers we could not hear one another speak. Add to that their overly loud music. The place was just TOO LOUD Look I offer the fairest Yelp reviews in all of the Yelp Universe 5-star food, 5-star service and 1-star atmosphere/ambience Sad to not return and I enjoy dining out and would not go through the Empire ordeal again. If I were ill, I would have my husband carryout a 3 meal enormous veggie burger from here and appreciate the yummy option xx Shelby S

It's basically a bar for college kids and they have a short menu with some food. Pages and pages of drinks and 1 page with food. I was so disappointed over my water downed cocktail. For the astronomical prices they charge, I expected better. Service was okay, it's not the water's fault. Well tried it and will never return back. By the way don't get the cigarette rolls as appetizer... it was a dripping with oil mess and when you bite into it ... it gets worst.

I picked up a to-go order for one night when I was staying at the nearby hotel. Everything was…read morepackaged well and the host double-checked everything was there before handing it to me which I appreciated. The tater tot fondue was probably not the best item to-go, since the cheese hardened a little, but it still tasted pretty good. I also ordered a salad, to balance out the tater tots. The salad was huge! But everything tasted fresh and it had a good mix of lettuce, croutons, tomatoes and cucumber.

While visiting my cousins and sisters over the weekend we decided on Rock Bottom Brewery in Orland…read morePark. We've been there a few times before but this time it missed the mark for several reasons. I ordered the Cod Fish & Chips last time and they were very good with a good crunch and a generous serving, what I didn't like was their breading it was very bland with hardly any taste. Also, they didn't even have tartar sauce it was kind of like a Cajun type aioli. The waitress said that they didn't have regular tartar sauce, I thought that was odd serving fish and chips without tartar sauce. It didn't justify the $24.00 price tag. The coffee was very strong, I like coffee a little strong but this was over the top. We had the nicest server named Gloria always willing to help with the menu and refills of Mango Iced Teas. My sisters ordered the Bourbon Blue Cheese Burger and they both said they were very good. I think we are going to go to a different restaurant next time even though we went their several times before. Sorry Rock Bottom!

When I was thinking about where to watch the Bears/Rams game, Ditka's seemed the obvious choice…read moreeven though I had never been. Steakhouses are not really my thing; I can count on my fingers the number of times I've been to one in my life. But Ditka's seemed intriguing because it was just around the corner from my parents' house. I am really glad this is where I saw the game and can concur with other Yelpers. This is not a Bears-themed steakhouse as much as it is a steakhouse with some Ditka art. Don't expect to see wall to wall memorabilia. But what this place does exceptionally well is food and service. The attentiveness was perfect - not obsequious, not absent. I ate lots of different sides and they were all good: the house salad; oven-fired bread; jalapeño hasbrowns; etc. Even though I did not try any of the entrees or steaks, this is clearly a restaurant for people who care about food.

Crab cakes bad enough to make Ditka cry. Ordered a beautiful looking crab cake with large chunks of…read morecrab. A real beauty, only to be dreadfully disapointed by the excessively mustard coated peices of lump crab meat. . Unfortunately, the dish was returned due to being inedible. The server explained the crabcakes are made earlier in the day not at order. Suggestion, approach with caution unless you favor ball park mustard in excessive quantities. The chopped coleslaw accompanied the order allowed for an addition insult...a mouthful of diced onion. The service was professional and handled this situation without complaint. Hopefully The management will try a tasting and revise recipes, or caution customers.
