Chicory salad and NIMAN ranch burger with mouth-watering fries ... will def be coming back to try out some other items on the menu (re-tip from earlier post...stupid autocorrect changed Niman to Human)

California cuisine distilled to its most accessible level. Everything is pretty tasty. Maybe you’re tired of burger recommendations, but here’s another: it’s on baguette from La Farine!

I love going to this restaurant for special occasions . Had their pork chop ! It was fantastic! Make sure you swirl the meat in the best tasting gravy !!

Ashley Mowrey

Their cocktails will get you drunk fast. Can be a good or bad thing, depending on your self-awareness. Really great food. Sit at the bar for immediate service.

Grab a seat at the concrete chef’s counter if you are a fan of close up cooking and how butter is supposed to be used; over, and over, and over again. - Inspector

A side of shoe string fries is a great compliment to their sandwiches

Gnocchi , pork belly , and lemon cucumber salad are all must haves

Nice vibe. Good wine . The sauces on the meat are way too rich. Couldn't finish the meal. Drowned in butter.
