This restaurant lays in a quaint little town, filled entirely with brick houses, pine trees, and water fountains; a place where you can actually put on snow coats and go out for a little stroll around the park for exercise. In this small mini town is Putah Creek Cafe. Located at the corner of railroad street, this little breakfast lunch diner is one of the better restaurants I have been in. Friendly warm service from the waitresses combined with food that fits perfectly in the dark place I call hunger make for an enjoyable meal by all standards. Seated on the alternative side of Putah Creek Cafe by our request, the new waitress tells us about her current trainee status with a smile; she was new to the job and was thus kept-an-eyed upon by the other waitresses, however if she had not said a single word I would not have ever guessed her status on the employment hierarchy. She was very warm, friendly, and full of enthusiasm, quickly and frequently checking on how we were doing ever 15-20 minutes. Sitting towards the left side of the restaurant, I notice quite a few people drinking wine at 2pm in the afternoon, as well as other businessmen there talking about movie productions.
As standard with each of my visits to places, especially diners, I would either order their most special of burgers, or simply a normal cheeseburger with fries. The cheeseburger was really good, and about the size of my palm, about a quarter bigger than an in-n-out burger. The meat was really tasty and the swiss cheese was melted quite perfectly to the essence of the burger. The tomatoes, lettuce, and onions were also very fresh with each crunch of bite. The main thing to take away from this meal would be, however, the side fries. The fries were MOST EXCELLENT, as they were crispy and salted just right.. I finished them almost immediately upon receiving my order. Dabble a little pepper on your ketchup and u have yourself ...... can only dub it .. super fries. yah super fries. very good.
my girlfirend got the avocado pita with chicken. It was very big in size, and somewhat difficult to eat without looking like a scraggily teacup yorkie named Bella after an ordeal with the garbage can, lickin her chops. However, despite this take-back, if you somehow find a way to combine each item within the pita bread into one most savory bite, it comes to something worth driving 12 miles to from Davis to Winters.. yah its that good, and i would recommend it if you are a fan of the avocado.
overall, this quiet little diner in this quiet little town is worth becoming a regular little customer if it is not too far out of the way, OR if you are just wanting breakfast/lunch type of food.. this place will do your hunger justice. yah..
