It's just when it came time to order, we had to try several times to flag down our server. We started with Northwest Salad (delish) and the Baby Pretzel Bites were the STAR of the evening. Warm, delicious, and exactly what you'd hope they'd be. The cheese sauce dip was a little thin. The Fresh Vegetable Stir-Fry was okay but we never got the side of tofu so had to ask for it when the meal was almost over. Then it was just grilled with no flavor. The server took it off the bill. Prawn Linguine was overly sauced, salty, and spicy, however the prawns were cooked perfectly I'm thinking this is the kind of place you get a drink at the bar and a pile of fries but dinner for 3 (1 beer, 1 na drink, 1 appetizer, 1 salad, 2 mains) was ~$99 all in. Had to get up and go to the bar to get our server again for the bill. *Sigh*. At least it was close to the theatre.

The service was excellent and our server even personally showed me where the restroom was. All of the other staff were friendly and attentive. The menu was limited with about eight entrees. We had the warm bread starter which was lovely and served with three butters. My son ordered the steak, rare. Many restaurants do not know how to prepare a rare steak but they did a great job. It was served with potatoes and zucchini. He reports that the zucchini was excellent but the potatoes were a bit dry - nothing special. I ordered the lamb shank and it was incredible. Interesting presentation with the shank on a bed of delicious polenta surrounded by a perfectly prepared variety of squash and drizzled with juices from the roasting pan. For beverages, I ordered the old vine Zinfandel and he had the coconut and mezcal cocktail. The wines by the glass were quite reasonably priced but the cocktail disappointed. The restaurant overall was pleasant and comfortable. We ate on the patio. The landscaping clearly was not a priority. The patio was small so it seemed an odd thing to overlook.

Go for the lunch special and the vibes. A year or so ago they opened an outdoor bar area with a big…read morescreen TV with table-side service. It's developed a local cult following for sporting events. We watched most of the World Cup 26 games out there and enjoyed slices and beers. Maybe I'll see you there. Pro tip here is to not sleep on the salads. They are made really well, with balanced flavors and textures. It's a perfect meal to get the lunch special which comes with a salad of your choice (I recommend the Creekside salad) and a slice of pizza. The main issue is if you are a pizza snob (guilty as charged), the bakes on the pizzas are really inconsistent. They often don't use a cooling rack when the pizzas come out, so the crust instantly becomes moist from trapped steam. When the kitchen is slammed, the pizzas are flop city, and sometimes a soupy mess. If they set up quality measures to get a nice crisp crust, they could keep up with their cross-town rivals in the plaza. For now they trail on pizza quality due to inconsistency. Because of all this, I think of Creekside as more of a bar than a specialty pizza place. I enjoy it for what it is, which is pretty darn good.
