We come here several times a year over the past roughly 16 years. Usually after a day of hiking…read more During much of the year we eat outside except during rain / snow conditions. Inside is generally wood paneling and thus a bit on the noisy side, but not to bad. It is located right of the 395 and easy to get to with plenty of parking. There is also scattered forest and paths to the north and west of the restaurant for a good walk after a meal. There are also a couple of very active streams in the immediate area. Food is consistently good when compared to typical non chain road side diner. Also food comes out prepared as I requested it. They readily except my requests to ditch buns on burgers and exchange fries for a vegetable. Prices are ok considering you are next to a wilderness area and not in a town with lots of dining options. I avoid the deep fried options and the high carb options. While I love fish, here I stick to hamburgers or steaks. Dogs (pets) are not welcome in the eating area, but they do allow them adjacent to the fence surrounding the outside eating area and they provide bowls of water upon request. My waitresses have always been pleasant and attentive.

Upon arrival to Tom's place, I let my service animal walk around for second before picking her up…read moreto carry her into the restaurant. I was immediately met on the porch by the owner? A short, portly, long blond/ grey hair lady who instantly barked that pets were not allowed in Tom's place. I informed her that my dog is a service animal, and she immediately raised her voice and started accusing me of lying. She demanded to see paperwork that would prove that my dog is a service animal, I asked her to wait a minute while I pull it up on email and she would not stop raising her voice and basically yelling at me. I had lost my reading glasses the day before and could not see well, I was trying to pull up the email while she was yelling at me. She said she had reading glasses she could sell me, but I needed to show her the proof that my dog was a service animal before she would let her in the store. My dog was now shivering profusely because it was coldish and windy, she pointed it out and I informed her that my dog is shivering from the cold, and we are just hungry this is a huge waste of time, because she is a legal service animal, but I am now under too much stress and cannot see without my glasses to pull up the digital proof that she demands before we enter. I informed her that this was illegal, and she started berating me, telling me I don't know what the law is. She than started being condescending and asking me if I know what ADA stands for. I told her that I am a RN, and that just made her louder and more unruly. If anyonlie from the state wants to talk, I allow YELP to release my email address to them. I have had my service animal for years, and never a problem. I have actually had her in Tom's place before without a problem. I have no idea why a small restaurant owner would rather cause potential litigation and undue stress upon potential customers and break the law and demand proof of service animal legitimacy than just let people with service animals live their best lives in peace. I did not need this experience and neither did the friend that was with me or my service animal . WHO THE HELL CARES IF SOMEONE HAS A SMALL DOG THAT IS SILENT. Unfortunately for you, she is a service animal. I have paperwork. In this day and age in California, they are letting many crimes go unpunished, as it is now racist to prosecute anything. So to all the small restaurant owners out there that give people undue stress about service animals which are not a crime, just shut your mouth, take our money, and obey the law.

It's about customer satisfaction. Which I felt a unwelcome .. in simple words ( please place a tag out side your main door ) that we are racist and we don't welcome other communities.

AMAZING TEXAS-STYLE BBQ!…read more Holy Smoke Texas Style BBQ absolutely delivered! The meat was tender, juicy, smoky, and packed with flavor--exactly what great BBQ should taste like. You can tell they put real time and care into smoking their meats. The portions were generous, the food tasted fresh, and everything we tried was delicious. This is the kind of BBQ that has you thinking about your next visit before you've even finished eating! If you're craving authentic Texas-style BBQ, Holy Smoke is definitely worth the visit. Great food, great flavor, and a place we'll absolutely be coming back to! Highly recommend!

This was our second time here, so we really wanted to give it another chance. Unfortunately, it…read morestill missed the mark. The tri-tip was very dry with little seasoning or smoke flavor, and the pulled pork was just as plain. The mac & cheese was dry and oddly chewy, while the beans were okay but nothing special. Somehow, the winner was the split potato. All four of us agreed it was the best thing we ate--and probably because we got to add the butter, salt, and pepper ourselves. Also... no French fries at a BBQ place? That just feels wrong. Plenty of people seem to love this place, but after two tries, I think it's just not for us. Give that potato a raise.
