Best artichoke I've ever had- amazing flavor and the sun dried tomato aioli and marinade was icing in the cake . Also loved their version of potato skins as well as the candied swine jolly rancheros !
The deviled eggs - wow!!! Artichoke was great too, loved the grilled shrimp and penne . Margarita was a little too sour for my liking (and I never say that). Cool art , good food, great service!
If you like artichokes this is my favorite one that I have ever had. Always good. Also don't miss the olalaberry pie and ice cream sandwich .
Try the Blood Orange Rita and the Monterey Bay Calamari . Also, you can't go wrong with $3 and $5 apps and drinks during M-F 4-7pm Happy Hour !
This place is a must. Go here and enjoy the service , the atmosphere , the FOOD!
Try the Crab Cakes , Ravioli , Grilled Shrimp and Rita Cocktails !
Potatoe soup was excellent , & the prawn & spinach wrap was quite delicious. Finishing supper up with the bread pudding . Yummy!
Chopped romaine salad with tomatoes , avo, anejo cheese , red onions and ancho remoulade is my all time fav!!!! Try it topped with panko crusted chicken or chrispy rock shrimp !!
The crab cake benedict is off the chain! Wooh, it's goooood.
