And now to take a short break from finishing a jillion review drafts from the vacation we took in…read moreJanuary I'm still catching up from... to finish a review draft I started last *December*, on my way to visit my parents for Christmas in NorCal. (Conveniently, too, given we're driving the same route in a couple weeks - might well stop here again. It's definitely way better than the usual big-name fast food options that are your only choice for *most* of the drive.) I'd just try to make sure to get there before 1 PM - last time, we learned, we made it accidentally *just* in time for their breakfast menu, which not only means you can get a fried chicken sandwich with a fried egg, clearly making it better, but it's also several dollars *cheaper*. For 9 bucks with fries - compared to 14 for the dinner version - that's probably *cheaper* than the average fast food chicken stop, separate from the fast that it was about a thousand times tastier. Though, while the vibe of this place is very much fast food, the food *itself* isn't fast food - it took exactly as long as you'd expect, given they're making everything fresh to order, but not any longer than that. (I didn't have any complaints about the speed, but it isn't Burger King.) Anyway, we figured since they had two breakfast items (the sandwich and a breakfast burrito) and there were two of us, we'd split both of them, which I wouldn't recommend as much. The breakfast burrito was by no means bad, but it was a bit floppier and not quite as filling - great chicken obviously, being the same chicken, but we agreed, we'd had way better breakfast burritos. The breakfast chicken sandwich was absolutely bomb, though. (Though their "medium" spicy was only a *hint* spicy, in my opinion - I never go straight for the "hot", cause sometimes at hot chicken places it's *stupid* hot, that and I was sharing them with my pepper-averse spouse, but if I went back, I'd just get my own sandwich and make it a little spicier.) Is it the best hot chicken sandwich in California? Probably not... but it *is* probably the best hot chicken sandwich you can get while driving from SoCal to NorCal, so I'm glad it's there.) Also, as far as value... they give you a *lot* of fries. Possibly too many fries. The fries were good, but there was nothing particularly special about them, other than the quantity. We could absolutely have shared an amount of fries *each* of our orders came from, for the two of us. (We didn't finish all the fries.) Only minor complaint, their drinks are all super sugary, and a little pricey at $4 for fountain soda - but at least it's a more premium brand of soda... still probably more than your daily sugar per cup, but at least it *is* sugar, not high fructose corn syrup. It does feel like they're missing out by not having a license to sell beer, though. That sandwich would go *really* well with a craft beer.

We visited Nate's because I was in my anything but McDonald's mood. Nate's was a wonderful…read moresurprise for me. We ordered 2 of their Nate's sandwiches with fries. The Nashville hot chicken sandwich was good. I ordered the chicken medium since their lowest level was naked. The medium had a pretty good kick to it. The chicken sandwich was topped with cole slaw and pickles. Both my wife and I enjoyed the sandwiches. The fries that came with our sandwich were delicious. It is one of my favorites fries. The two meals came with so much fries that we eventually threw most of them away. It would be nice if Nate's could sell their sandwiches without fries. Nate's was a good choice for us to stop at.

She somehow managed the bar, table service, and kept everyone feeling taken care of despite the nonstop rush.

Excellent service can make or break an experience, and Kelly made ours. If you're lucky enough to have her as your server or bartender, you're in great hands!

We had the bone-in bbq wings and the cranberry chicken salad. There were 8 wings in the order. They were meaty and dressed with the right amount of sauce and worked perfect as a light meal. The cranberry chicken salad had a generous amount of chopped chicken and with the mixed greens, candied pecans and dried cranberries was a great balance of flavor and texture. The pacing of service was good. There were the right amount of people dining and drinking at the bar and tables to give the spot a good energy. The only downside was that they only serve wine by the glass. We would have brought our own bottle and paid the $15 corkage if we had known. Other than that, it was a great late night choice for dining and drinks.

This place is small but clean. The parking lot can get a little challenging…read more We have been here three or four times already and finally, I decided to write a review about this place. In the past, we've always had the beef short ribs, and they are amazing each time! However, this time around we switched things around and we were really disappointed. My husband had the soft tofu seafood soup, and first of all it did not look anything like the picture but it had a good flavor. I had the teriyaki chicken and that was the biggest disappointment ever. The teriyaki chicken was extremely salty specially if you ate it along with the sauce it came in. In order for me to be able to eat it, I had to pull it out of the sauce and place it on top of the salt free steam rice. I honestly didn't want to complain because there's always that fear if what if they do something to the food. The service has always been okay and the complimentary side dishes they bring are always delicious as well but next time we are there, we are definitely getting the beef short ribs again. Those are hands-down, the winners :0)

The second we opened the box, the smell alone had us excited to dig in. We started with the cheese bread, and it was pure cheesy goodness. The bread was soft and fluffy without being mushy, and every bite was absolutely delicious. The pizza, though, was the real star of the meal. You could taste how fresh the ingredients were, and the dough was incredibly soft, flavorful, and perfectly baked. My favorite touch was the white sesame seeds on the crust--they added a subtle sweetness that complemented all the savory flavors so well. It's such a small detail, but it made the pizza stand out from anywhere else I've been. I only wish I lived closer because this would easily become my go-to pizza spot.
