Sitting outside on their patio was appealing to me and more pleasant than dining inside. The weather was perfect during our visit! Our server was prompt in taking our orders. She did a good job throughout. I got the chocolate cake and my mom got the strawberry cheesecake. Both were equally delicious!!! The portions were huge and the prices were pretty cheap. The Neighbors Place is a great family friendly restaurant. I was very impressed with their overall food and drink menu options. My only regret is not coming here sooner. Highly recommend!

Don't leave without trying the Dreamsicle cheesecake--it was the perfect ending to a fantastic meal!

They have a great happy hour menu, which we ordered from. Do not miss the truffle popcorn. I am still dreaming of this! Truffle oil and parmesan cheese on perfectly popped and salted popcorn. We also had the hot honey and Parmesan chicken wings which were crisp and delicious, and a harvest salad. So good. We would be here all the time if we lived close. Do not miss this place if you are in town!

Nothing overworked or trying too hard. It came out the way a burger should. That alone puts it ahead of a lot of places. Portion and price lined up well. No stretch there. Food: **SERVICE** Staff handled things well. When asked about the menu, they gave clear recommendations without dragging it out or pushing anything. Food came out in a reasonable time, no confusion, no missed steps. It was a lighter crowd, so it's not a stress test, but what was there was handled cleanly. Service: **AMBIENCE** The space is clean and comfortable. Nothing distracting, nothing out of place. There's a bit of a modern quiet to it. A few groups sitting together, all on their phones. Not the restaurant's fault, but it does change the feel of the room. Two people in the whole place actually looking up from their tables. That stood out more than anything else. **CLOSING** This is a place that does the basics right. Good burger, fair price, solid service, clean environment. Nothing flashy, but nothing falling apart either. That's usually what keeps a place in rotation. **RATINGS** Food: **** Service: **** Ambiance: **** Overall: **** Personal Disclaimer: I value small, independent restaurants and want them to succeed. This review reflects a single visit and may not represent every experience. EVERY RESTAURANT IS WORTH TRYING FOR YOURSELF. Go, see what you get, and be honest in how you evaluate it. I've worked as an executive chef, restaurant manager, and owner. I tend to hold places to a higher standard. Execution matters. Freshness matters. Effort shows. Cutting corners usually does too.

We were going to eat on the nice covered patio but the thunderstorm moved in and the rain was lashing in so we ate inside comfortably situated watching the light show outside.

The result was robustly flavored and fit my need for an early meal. The location is part of a mixed residential and retail complex that was a bit odd to navigate. They also had a bunch of smoothies and such, and I noted one customer who actually asked for the non-dairy nut milk to be replaced with dairy milk. I found it amusing that we've gotten to a point where someone ordering food has to explain that they're not a vegan. If you are avoiding dairy, however, there's plenty for you here, and I could not expect a small place in a town like this to fill its niche much better.

The food was moist and not dried out with just the right amount of sauce. It had a spicy flavor without being too over powering. The fajitas plate came out sizzling hot and stayed that way for awhile. The side is beans, lettuce and rice were warm and stayed warm while we ate. I skipped the cheese and guacamole. Service was good. A young gal sat us at a booth and was our waiting staff. She knew the menu, got drinks right away and checked on our table frequently without overdoing it. Kind and personal attitude. Atmosphere is like what other reviews said, nice decor. It did get loud when two groups were in the same main dining area. And the bar had less people and was even louder. We didn't try their alcoholic drink selection so no comment for adult drinks. Overall, Angus Mexican Grill & Cantina is a strong recommend. Definitely will come back.
