I was in absolutely no mood for Olive garden but thought Spokane might have some nice country fried steak. Did a quick Google search and this place came up. The steak portion size was super generous and it was covered with gravy. I cleaned up my plate. This dish was perfect. I got the eggs, biscuit and slaw ( did some subs) and they didn't disappoint as well. This is a small, probably family managed place. Don't expect anything fancy and all that jazz. Come here if you want some good chicken fried steak. They also had a bunch of burger options.

Ordered the Brown sugar, BBQ, bacon, medium well with a side of coleslaw. We've all eaten our fair share of burgers, and this was one of the best I've ever had. Check out how they load this "bad" burger up; brown sugar, bacon, onion, lettuce, pickles, pepperoncinis, barbecue sauce, and "Hangry" sauce. That's an excellent topper. One of the marks of a good burger is if you need a lot of napkins and something to catch the overflow. This hits it on both points. You get a good amount of coleslaw as an option v. fries. The coleslaw is very fresh and really good tasting. Shout out to Stephanie who helped me place my call in order. Editors note, I think this burger totals only about 4 calories! lol

The birria is delicious and the most authentic I have had so far in any restaurant in the states. The staff is amazing. There is plenty of seating so even if it looks busy, there are still tables available. The staff is constantly walking around cleaning off tables, asking you if you need anything in a friendly, respectful way. Not in a way that would make you feel uncomfortable or rushed. I can't wait to go back!

Was a 10/10... now extremely disappointing…read more I hate writing this because the first time I came here, it was honestly a 10/10. The food was amazing, the people were great, and I was excited to come back. Yesterday, my girlfriend and I planned a date night and decided to order from here again. Since we have kids, we did pickup. We drove about 25 minutes, then waited another 25 minutes because the line was packed which I didn't mind because the food was that good the first time. But this time? Completely different experience. I ordered a bean burrito with cheese... and it had no beans. Just rice and cheese in a tortilla. Then the nachos, honestly, for $27, this was unacceptable. Dry chips, unmelted cheese, some tomatoes thrown on top, no meat, no beans just thrown together with no care. It looked and tasted like an afterthought. What made it worse is the lack of accountability. I tried calling multiple times last night and again this morning no answer. Calls just ring or don't go through. I even tried calling from different numbers. Nothing. At this point, it's not even about the money it's the principle. Mistakes happen, but not being able to reach anyone or have them make it right is frustrating. I really wanted to keep supporting this place because the first experience was great, but this completely missed the mark. If you go, just be aware the quality and consistency might not be what you expect.

I couldn't get enough of my tuna sandwich, it was so delicious! The sourdough bread is just so fresh and soft, yet not soft enough to sog up my sandwich. My roommate kept saying how much meat there was and couldn't imagine being hungry enough for a full sandwich He really enjoyed his crazy combo of Beaver mustard and Italian dressing too.

First, let me chew on the positives. The facilities? Excellent pasture. Plenty of space to sit,…read morerelax, and ruminate. The seating is comfortable, the environment is calm, and it's a solid place to gather the herd for meetings. I've had many productive conversations here, tail tucked neatly beside the table, and I genuinely enjoy spending time in the space. From a cow's point of view, it's a very pleasant place to loiter. Now, the service... well, that's where the cud starts to sour. Service is slow. And not "slow like a lazy afternoon in the field" slow--more like standing at the trough wondering if anyone noticed you're there. The humans behind the counter don't always seem particularly friendly, and as a cow who believes in good barn manners, that's disappointing. A little warmth goes a long way, even if you're serving mammals who don't chew grass. As for the prices--moo-ve over. They are far too high for what ends up in the feed bin. The quality of the food and drinks doesn't justify the cost, especially for a cow who understands the true value of simple, honest nourishment. Paying premium prices and leaving less than satisfied is not a good feeling, even with four stomachs. So here's the final moo: Panera Bread is a great place to be. It's comfortable, clean, and ideal for meetings and hanging out. But it's not a great place to be served. The service is slow, the friendliness is inconsistent, and the prices don't match the quality. I'll keep coming back for the space and the conversations--but I'll do so knowing I'm paying a lot of hay for a fairly small bale. Moo.
