Maybe they were breaking in a new cook. Wasn't busy on a Sunday afternoon: 12 people total. Seem to do a good takeout business. Food was good. Bacon cheeseburger was well done and still moist. French dip was loaded with meat. Fries were cold. Coleslaw was soggy cabbage in a bowl of dressing. Great signs to read while waiting for food. I would try it again.

Recycling, Upcycling,…read moreResurrection. Call me a fan. In 1892 (yes, 1892, son!!), the Walla Walla Gas Plant opened for business...not for art, but for amps, volts, and ohms. (well technically, it was a gas plant first, but then began to sing the body electric in 1905). :::: Fast-forward: 2011 :::: This is when this art decco powerhouse transformed to a stylish playhouse in the style of Shakespeare. This theater had been on my radar for the last couple of years, and my timing just never worked out for venturing down to the hills of wine and to make a visit to the theater....until Winter 2012. On a blustery cold evening, I needed to make a trip down to Walla Walla. I made myself go. I had to. NPR advertised about the Power House's production of "It's A Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play!", for weeks, and I was intrigued and pulled Walla Walla-ward. I was interested by the production, but I was also looking for an excuse to case the joint! ;) I love old theaters (especially if they've been renovated Gangnam Style...sorry, just wanted to say that phrase...not sure who reads these reviews all the way anyway!) ;) The renovation, I believe, is still a work in progress. I heard they are still working on the roof...and the audience & actors noticed this throughout the evening as the winds howled and banged on what seemed like only a tin roof. (A member of the staff came upstairs to the balcony and offered seats downstairs to us if we were too cold. I didn't mind, but some took him up on his offer---I wanted the full environmental experience! I wanted the chance to tell stories about way back in the olden days when I went to the Powerhouse to see a play, and how the roof almost blew off!) Other than the roof, the facility is top notch. (well, I think the roof adds character along with the expose brick, too). From the lobby, stage, seating, to restrooms, the facility is updated with modernity. And that's what I like. The duality of a renovated structure is attractive. I can't wait to come back for a Shakespearean or modern play. You'll find me looking for excuses to come here again, and again---look for me in the balcony!

The mojito was not good and was super watered down. The hummus plate was nice and the servers were trying their best. Do not recommend going here.

Ther were a lot of people waiting for their food like we were. I guess the kitchen was understaffed and so was the servers.

I landed on the Moose Drool, and it was the perfect match for the pizza. Great food, great beer, and friendly service. If you're in Joseph, Embers Brewhouse is definitely worth adding to your list.

The hummus platter appetizer was nice, salads were good and the Bacon Jam Burger was delicious. The place is usually packed but they do a great job of keeping things moving. Owner was very nice. One of the top spots in Joseph IMO!
