For those weird complaining reviews about service and hours, don't come back then. Personally, I like the imperfections. We call before heading there and they've always been pleasant to deal with. The inside is small, cool on a hot summer day. 20+ years we've been coming. God willing we'll be doing it another 20+ and passing it on to our kids!

So delicious! We got the chicken shawarma and ribeye kebabs and both were amazing. The chicken was…read morevery flavorful ~ savory with a slight sweet pop and the ribeye was so tender and flavorful. The ribeye really impressed me. We came around 8pm on a Saturday and they were sold out of a few things including rice pilaf so they substituted that with fries instead. Very cute spot in Chester with some indoor and outdoor seating. Felt family owned and they were very nice!

In my opinion, this restaurant is hyped up but it's very average, not that special…read more I ordered two salads here and added chicken. Both salads were about $30. each. That's a lot of money for just lettuce, tomato, cucumber, chicken, and some dressing. One was to go and one was sit down. What really offended me as well was I am a tourist and was dealing with hardship at a hotel. I was staying at this can happen to anyone. I was under a lot of stress and the first night the owner was so sweet, kind and compassionate really a breath of fresh air. Maybe she was just trying to impress the customers that were inside with how wonderful she was. When it came in the second night, she acted as if she didn't even know who I was adding more rudeness and stress to my already stressed out trip. Anyone can get stuck staying at a ratty motel and not knowing. This can happen to anyone. If you have a bipolar personality where you are super nice one day and cold and distant the next day customers do not like that and they feel it too. When I left to go use the restroom after I had paid my bill and hadn't even finished tipping, I saw her gossiping to the man folding napkins. I knew they were talking about me. You would think she would have some compassion and being a repeat customer twice on my trip. I then said, have a good night and put some money on the table less than I normally would because being treated disrespectfully for no reason is just not cool. Either just don't talk to people or be genuinely friendly. It's easy. Aside from that it's a cute restaurant, but the food is nothing special and if you like paying $30 for a salad, then you do you. I think their only claim to fame is that they have Turkish tea, which is a little exotic to Americans, but isn't a big deal if you were abroad in Europe.

I first met Nick when he was managing one of the resorts on the Peninsula. He was always incredibly…read morefriendly and helpful, and when I found out that he and his wife, Staci, owned a donut shop in town, I knew I had to stop by during my annual visit to Lake Almanor. When I walked in, both Staci and Nick were there with big smiles, warmly greeting customers. You can immediately tell how connected they are to the community--they know the locals, they genuinely enjoy their customers, and they make everyone feel welcome. And then there are the donuts! The variety is fantastic, and the quality is outstanding. Every donut I tried brought its own little level of happiness and indulgence. You can absolutely taste the care that goes into making them. What impressed me even more was learning that at midnight they start making the donuts fresh. As soon as they're hot and ready--even if that's 4:00 in the morning--Nick opens the doors for construction workers, truckers, and others passing through who are already starting their day. That kind of dedication says so much about Nick and Staci and the heart and soul they put into their business. And it's not just donuts! They also have biscuits and gravy, frozen yogurt, awesome local coffee, and a little bit of everything, which makes this place even more unique and fun to visit. I wish Nick and Staci nothing but continued success. They've created something really special, and I'll definitely be back--especially for Fritter Fridays!

I like to use local small businesses when we travel, so I contacted Kelly and we put together an order of cupcakes (delicious and beautifully decorated), a cheesecake (creamy, with blueberry compote for topping) and a bunch of homemade buttermilk biscuits that we used at a dinner and finished the next day with coffee. I ordered a week before our arrival, then coordinated with her when we'd pick them up in Chester. So easy to do, and flawless! Highly, highly recommend.
