After weeks of traveling all I wanted was some simple comfort food done well and that's exactly…read morewhat I found at The Salty Beaver. I ordered the Beaver Dam with cheddar and mozzarella for pickup. When I stopped in to grab it I got a chance to look around and this place has a fun, neighborhood vibe with a bar, seating and games like pool and darts that make it seem like a good hangout spot. The food was excellent. No frills, just tasty. The bread was perfectly toasted, the cheese was gooey and satisfying, and every bite hit the spot. After so many disappointing meals on the road, I was refreshed to have something so simple that was so well executed. It was exactly what I wanted. I found myself slowing down just so that I could savor every bite and by the time I finished I was seriously considering going back for another sandwich. If that doesn't tell you how good it was. I don't know what will. They absolutely nailed it and if I lived in the area, I would be here all the time. If you're looking for some good simple comfort food at a welcoming local spot, this is the place.

They sell a variety of Kalama sourdough bread products and their pizza is made on Kalama sourdough pizza crust. It's very good pizza. They have gourmet sandwiches that are quite large and delicious. My recommendation is to order pizza and sandwiches online so as to not have to wait for their preparation. The recently opened upstairs area is much larger than I had anticipated, with dozens of tables and chairs, and areas where small groups can eat together and talk, and I believe large groups are able to reserve the area as well. In addition to this upstairs, space, there are tables downstairs and now quite a few tables outside as well. You can buy and consume beer on the premises, but I believe that their licensing requires the consumption to be indoors and to be opened by store personnel.

I had a pretty bad experience this evening. At 5:02pm, I ordered one sandwich online. At 5:11pm I…read moregot a text that it was ready for pickup and I showed up around 5:25pm. I told one of the employees in the back my name and that it was an online order. She said she would check on it. I ended up having to wait another 40 minutes and checked with employees twice during that time. Turns out that my sandwich was ready the entire time and was just in the heated holding cabinet. I ended up actually getting my food around 6:05pm. I get that they were busy but it was frustrating because if an employee could've just taken 15 seconds to check and give me my order, I could've been on my way 40 minutes earlier. The sandwich was good, but not worth waiting an hour for. They need an employee in the back to provide customer service and hand out orders. Or possibly a designated area for online pick ups? Regardless, I left frustrated.

We were one of two tables occupied. No one greeted us. A lot of the tables were dirty and were told…read morethey'd been busy. We ordered a pizza and my friend got the all you can eat pasta pizza soup and salad. And by all you can eat I mean you can serve yourself salad but good luck getting the pizza pasta and soup. She got her pasta after about ten minutes. Not too bad right? Wrong. The soup she ordered came about 50 min after ordering. The pizza I ordered? Waitress came over 40-45 after being seated asked what she had forgotten and then put the order in for my pizza. For all you can eat and the only self serve being salad you'd think they'd visit the table more often. We were there over an hour and she made it to our table to order, drop off pasta, come by 30 min later to ask what she'd forgotten and then drop off my pizza 20 min later. We had kids to pick up from school so I had to ask for a To-go box as she brought the pizza. We were there over an hour and I didn't even get a chance to eat because it took that long. Another 3 min wait standing at the register waiting for her to come back to the front of the restaurant to pay. Waitress was kind but my god the service was abysmal. The food was mediocre at best. Would not recommend at all.

I got the half order of the chicken salad sandwich and pasta salad as my side. The chicken salad was really good and had little slices of almonds. I could've done without the lettuce or tomato and would've liked some more chicken salad. The pasta salad was not something I would get again. It wasn't good or bad just ok. It had a slight itallian dressing tang and all that was in it was olives. I had a couple bites but didn't want the rest. The lady that helped me was super nice and they have a grandma kitchen feel.
