It's not even one of the items that they circle as their top sellers. This was so good. Thinly shaved beef on a really tasty bun and loaded with cheese. I'm not a fan of bell peppers, but these didn't overpower. Such good flavor! My wife had the burger, and it was outrageously good (I think it was the Bro). Get ready to back up your truck to the door when you finish b/c they load you up with so many fresh, hand-cut fries. Again, such good flavor, but this is where the heartburn really kicks in. They bring out a caddy of 6 different sauces to keep the Freedom fries company. The gal who served us wouldn't win any awards for hospitality, but she treated us well and we got out of there alive. We thought it was a win.

Since this is only my 2nd time ever having Chicken Fried Steak I say "I'm not sure what a good one is supposed to taste like" My friend says "Hmmm it's alright" (He was not impressed He's had better) Then the gentleman says "I'm the Owner...

On August 22 at 10 am We visited Blueberry Hill Farms in Manson, Washington, and unfortunately, the…read moreexperience was very disappointing. The person checking us out, Liz, was extremely rude and showed very little hospitality. I asked a simple question about the different waffle flavors available, and instead of explaining or helping us, she essentially threw the menu toward us and said, "Here, you guys aren't ready? Go sit down and come back." The way she spoke to us was dismissive and made us feel unwelcome. What makes this even more frustrating is that this has happened with Liz more than once. She has unfortunately ruined my experience every single time I've interacted with her. I really hope management takes this review seriously. A business can have great food and a beautiful location, but customer service matters just as much. If you're going to advertise yourselves as the #2 best restaurant in Washington, the hospitality should reflect that reputation. Management, please address this. Something needs to change when it comes to how customers are treated.

This was the last stop on a wine tasting day and was a lovely way to cap off our trip. It's…read moredefinitely way more of a restaurant than a tasting room, but they were okay with us just doing wine. We did end up splitting a Cesar salad for food and it was completely average, don't remember it well. I guess that's a good thing since it was exactly what I expected. The wine tasting comes in a tower so you can drink at your own pace, which is great! This allowed us to drink at our own speeds and we were a little tired of hearing about wine after many other stops, so it was great to have an independent experience. It's lovely here! Perfect spot for sunset. We barely interacted with our server since we were the only outdoor table, but that was fine.

We didn't arrive with reservations and it seemed like all the customers that did this were seated…read moreoutside. Which would be fine, except their outdoor seating is extremely dirty and due to the amount of trees around, covered in pollen. So it almost felt like second class or a punishment. I slapped the chair cushion and it was like it had never been dusted before. Not that I expect the outdoor seating to be clean at all times, I would expect a higher end place like this that features wine on their menu to make an effort to keep things tidy for all guests. The food itself, was actually pretty good. The deep fried artichoke seriously missed the mark in seasoning and presentation (maybe have the sauce on the side to dip?) but the steak and short ribs were amazingly tasty. Great flavors. We also did a wine flight and the wines were very good as well. One of the glasses still had lipstick on it unfortunately. A couple of the glasses looked rushed to clean. It was replaced and all was well. But still.. attention to details here seems to be an issue. If you come here, make a reservation. Sit inside. Might have a better experience. Get the short ribs or steak and some wine and it will be a lovely experience.

Very large and varied menu, take heed if you are a vegetarian, not a lot of choices. We stood and waited to be seated for about 5 minutes even though there were two servers and only a couple of customers eating. The two of them were far more interested in chatting than anything else. Once we were seated, we got beverages right away and our order taken quickly and the food came out super fast. My husband had the blueberry pancake breakfast, three huge pancakes with blueberry compote and whipped cream as well as bacon and an egg. He said pancakes were good and so big he could only eat half. I had a two egg breakfast that came with pancakes or hash browns, choice of bacon or sausage and toast. I opted for hash browns which were really good; that said, the toast was hardly even brown and it was supposed to be sourdough but if it was, pretty sad excuse for it. The bacon, four slices, was not cooked thoroughly and while it should have been crisp it was pretty limp. All in all the breakfast was ok and the restaurant was clean but I've had better food and its hard to ruin breakfast

The mocktails were not only delicious but beautifully presented, which made them feel a little extra special. For appetizers we had the house bread & butter and the French onion soup. The bread was fresh and paired with a high-quality, creamy butter that tasted amazing. The French onion soup arrived in the cutest little pot with a lid and had a rich, savory flavor with perfectly melted cheese on top. Unfortunately, there were whole peppercorns in the soup (I fished out four), which was surprising and almost ruined an otherwise great dish. Entrées were a mix of hits and misses. The grilled salmon with dinner potatoes was the star of the night--perfectly cooked, flaky, and full of flavor. Absolutely spot on. The crab cakes were a good size with lots of crab and a nicely crisp exterior, but I did find pieces of crab shell in mine. The side salad that came with it was the biggest disappointment--no option to swap it out and the lettuce was visibly brown. We also ordered the mushroom pasta. I didn't personally try it, but it looked great; however, I was told the flavor was a bit lacking. Dessert totally redeemed any small issues--the chocolate mousse cake was incredibly decadent and rich. Definitely a must-try. I even took a slice home for my husband. Service was friendly and attentive, drinks were great, and most of the food was very good. Our total was close to $200 for three people, which felt fair for the quality and the occasion. Would come back again--especially for that salmon and the chocolate mousse cake--just hoping for a little more consistency next time
