Not only did they have multiple, but it also tasted delicious! Coffee was good, not my favorite, but tasted real! Staff helped me pick out something fun and was grateful for the recommendation.

The restaurant is so very cozy and warm. The fireplace is gorgeous. Our servers especially Jenna are kind and attentive. The food is extremely good, I love the Mussels Fra Diablo. Served with a generous amount of toasted Rustic bread . A real pleasure. We went tonight and after dinner stepped out onto the patio for a Reggae band who were rocking the house!! Tonight I enjoyed the Sirloin steak special dinner with mashed potatoes and broccoli . The steak was perfectly cooked and could be cut with a butter knife...that tender. Go to the Spotted Horse and ENJOY Doreen Jurgens

The restaurant is very clean and nice--not too overwhelming in terms of lighting and music. The food came fast. Unfortunately, the food was disappointing (to no fault of the waitress of course). We ordered the beef empanadas, the truffle burger, and the barnyard burger. The empanada crust was burnt and hard, with barely any actual filling. For $15, we were given 2 tiny empanadas. The truffle fries barely had any truffle flavor and the sweet potato fries were overdone. My truffle burger was soggy, with not enough bread and pretty much no flavor. Overall, overpriced for not very good food. The sink water was freezing cold. Maybe today was just a bad day for them, but I wouldn't come here again.

I ordered the crispy chicken cutlet wrap and was disappointed to receive what seemed like microwaved chicken cutlet pieces. Crispy it was most definitely not, but dry, tough and stringy with mealy batter. Husband couldn't even finish his cheesesteak. Had ordered fish tacos on a prior occasion and they were underwhelming as well.

It was just rice, tuna, and A LOT of julienne veggies. It was missing the pickled ginger, wakame, cucumber, diced avocado, and crispy wontons. I guess they ran out of those ingredients? Lazy because it was To Go Order? I actually had to check the online Menu to see what was missing because it was so terrible. Every dish should really be on point, cuz you never know who actually takes time to write on this thing. Hence the bad review. Oh well, other places around.

We had the Breakfast burrito (no eggs for me which was no issue and they offered sub tofu if you like!) with Longaniza sausage, homemade beans, avocado, home fries, cheese and more .... Fresh chips and salsa, triple tacos with a different filling in each, birria beef, carnitas and chicken tinga. She had to eat a bunch of meat to pick them up they were so loaded! And the most delicious home fries! I had the agua Fresca which was elderberry and lime and so delicious! They rotate flavors daily apparently! The place looks like nothing from the outside but wow!!!!! What a gem! We picked up take out for my hubby too and the whole check was only $62! The owners/servers were lovely, so welcoming and accommodating, this is definitely going to become a repeat spot for us! And there's a parking lot right next to it so no worries about that!

I immediately got in my car after seeing they offer TRES LECHES PANCAKES!? They were extremely moist, fluffy, and down right delicious, i was savoring every bite! They mix Vermont maple syrup with butter for the perfect topping to your pancakes, it was so good, i could literally drink it alone! As a birria connoisseur, ive never had birria in an omelet and it was an absolute game changer. there were huge chunks of birria mixed in with egg, cheese, onion, and cilantro, and i was very impressed. they also have daily aqua fresca specials and the mango lemonade was quite refreshing! I think the guy working was Eddie (?) - so friendly and welcoming, he made me want to come back in a heartbeat! it's a small intimate place that really brings community together.

I'm not usually a coffee drinker but had a taste for a mocha latte. When I think of coffee I don't think of Dunkin or Starbucks, but localities who care about the craft. This is one of them. Not only was I met with a clean and comfortable environment, but it was Harry Potter's birthday which lead in to cute decor and a pop up menu! The Hills menu tries to minimize artificial ingredients and sugar, unlike those big box commercial places. This is a better option and far greater value than those other places. I was offered a variety of mocha latte options, settling on the Nutella mocha. If you have the time I highly recommend stopping in for a delightful beverage!

We will definitely be coming back, and a big reason is because of the excellent service she provided.

I had the Pho... so it's not really a solid PHO There's no accoutrements on the side (basil, jalapeño or lime) they do serve it with some sauces, which is nice and the noodle to broth ratio is off. There's way too much noodle and certainly not enough broth. And the broth is tasty, but it's not really a rich PHO..
