Cooked just right, not dry. Nicely seasoned and just enough tasty tartar sauce. The arugula and tomato topped it off nicely. (Sorry, no photos because I devoured it.) Service was pleasant and attentive. Several TVs for sports viewing, if you can get the right angle. What is a 2.99% (not quite 3.00%) "Operations Fee" tacked on to the bill? Is it because of this: "This business has a 2.99% Cash Adjustment Discount built into all pricing." Tell me this upfront or build it into the food and beverage prices. Sorry, this is a deal breaker for me. Others will tell me to get over it. Street parking only. No private lot.

As a horse owner myself, I was a little skeptical going into a two-hour trail ride while I was…read morevisiting, but it ended up being such an enjoyable experience. It was nice to simply relax, turn off my brain, and enjoy the ride without worrying about anything else. My horse had a fun, spunky personality that reminded me so much of my own gelding back home, which made the experience even more special. The trail took us through beautiful rolling hills, vineyards, and areas full of wildlife, making for some incredible scenery. Our guide, Brian, was knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly cared deeply about the horses and their well-being. The ranch also provided thoughtful extras like cold water, sunscreen, and bug spray, which were very appreciated on a warm day. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing, scenic trail ride with well-cared-for horses.

We learned a lot about the family passion that led to the opportunity of even being able to peek at these majestic animals. Tip: bring a big bag of carrots, maybe 2.

They send you pretty detailed instructions for the tour. Once you arrive, you park outside the gate, then they come get you so you can follow them into their massive property. They are great with providing instructions for those who are nervous and even those who are experienced. Just the right amount of time for the group to go on the trail ride, take photos and enjoy the outdoors. There's a nice stop where they take amazing photos of you and the view. There's porta potties at the ranch so if you need to go try to go beforehand.
