    LOVE this place! Ask for a counter seat by the kitchen, and watch them prepare your food.

    The bread is to die for. Mixture between a croissant and a puff pastry. Also try the deviled eggs and the burger.

    The size & style of the menu is representative of Old America, with a modern-Californian twist. It's large with ample choices for the meat lover & pescatarians. However, there is only one veg entree. Read more

    The chicken is great but so are the scallops. And only truly evil people turn down the popovers.
