I really hesitate to give this review because it may just add to other people's dissatisfaction…read morebecause they will have to wait to be seated. My wife and I have been coming here for years. However today was the first time we decided to come during the summer. It's just too busy with tourists in the summer. The seating is all outside which I didn't think would be good. We like to come during the offseason when there are less tourists. All the seats are indoors and quite cramped but cozy. So today we decided to see if there was a wait. Yes there was but only about 20 minutes. Turns out the outdoor seating is great, almost like one of those rainforest restaurants except this is all natural. The food was great as always. The staff was comprised of the normal folks who are here in the winter plus a few people that I have never seen before. They all busted their butts to make sure it was a good experience. Keep in mind this is a very small town with limited resources. I'm extremely impressed with the level of service we received. To top it all off there was a guy there with his guitar named Phil Volan. Phil added another level of ambiance that I didn't expect. If you are planning on a visit be prepared for a wait but you should have a memorable time.

Strange, but nice experience. We spotted the shaded patio as we walked by on a hot summer day, and…read morethey were just starting live music for the afternoon. We were on the hunt for a cold beverage and a nice place to sit, and this is honestly the only place in town that we found that satisfied our criteria. We walked in and it was a little bit confusing that you were handed a menu, but had to go claim a table and figure out what number table it was, and then come back inside to order, it felt very disjointed. We noticed that it was happy hour, so chose two beverages that were listed, and they were out of one of them. My brother ordered a tap beer, and they never brought it out, we waited quite a while and then he went back inside and got it. It was a little bit confusing, since they had been so adamant to go figure out what table we wanted, and then they never brought out what we ordered. We probably would have ordered several drinks but since it took so long we decided to move on. The (I think) owner was outside, tending to the patio, and enjoying the music. It was a little overbearing, but I think he was just passionate, giving gifts to the children and being hospitable. The best part was the very good live music, and the large water they brought to our table. I also enjoyed the people watching since it's right on the street.

Which was okay they still had a great lookong selection to choose from. Apart from that mishap, everything fell short in flavor. The vanilla latte wasn't anything spectacular and was overpriced. As for the bagel and tart, the feeling was the same. There was no out-of-the-ordinary flavor, or "this is great" moment. I wonder if they made their cream cheese, it would have elevated the bagel sandwich. As for the tart, the only Biscoff flavoring was the cookie on top. The rest just felt like butter and icing in a pastry.

Just know that when the sun goes down you will need a sweater or on a windy day. Coming to this restaurant know that you will be serve quality food. We ordered the Marinade Pork with Brandy Apple Butter. The mushroom rice was really good. Blueberry BBQ glazed Meatloaf was excellent. Please leave room for the White Chocolate Blackberry Bourbon ice cream. It was so good we came back the next night just for the ice cream for dessert. I have dairy issues but no issues with their ice cream. Not sure what they do differently but I'm excited I get to enjoy it also. Their staff is always attentive.

Not another soul in the restaurant except Holly the waitress who was an absolute delight. The owner was out getting restaurant supplies so Holly brought us our water, took our orders and said to just come get her in the back if we needed something because she was doing the cooking. So we made a fresh pot of coffee, got some games from the stack and played Uno while we waited. Other reviews day it's quick and probably is on a busy weekend. But it was a great experience and we would go back in a heartbeat. Also, it looks like nothing from the front. It's your quintessential hole in the wall and a great discovery.

She was also very attentive, and recommended the wonderful French toast I had. Speaking of that, the banana bread French toast is nothing short of amazing. The cinnamon glaze and pecans accentuated the wonderful banana bread. I would order it again in a heartbeat. My wife and son also enjoyed their meals. He got the regular French Toast and she got the breakfast with pancakes. One important note: the "small" pancakes are larger than most places large pancakes. My wife said they were very good and very filling. The fried cheese curds were great, with a great pull. It was a wonderful meal in a nice patio setting, and the prices were very reasonable. I would definitely come back anytime we are in the area.

So being in Colorado Springs, Rudy's was calling. Ordered half pound of moist brisket, 1/4 lb pulled pork, Cole slaw, corn on the cob, banana pudding, and peach cobbler. The order taker was very nice and polite and ordering was quick and easy. There was a bar with pickles, onions, jalapeños, etc. regular and sissy sauce at the table(you don't need it on the brisket). The Cole slaw..well it was Cole slaw. My wife loved the corn on the cob. The pulled pork was tender and flavorful. The brisket was just amazing. Juicy, tender without being mushy, and a deep Smokey flavor. And the bark...my lord....so delicious. I was very very happy. Def in a moist brisket coma afterwards. Only disappointment was the deserts. Not very good. Wife did not like the banana pudding and the cobbler crust had zero crunch..like it was soft. I probably would not order that again. But overall super happy! You guys ever want to put one in Los Angeles or OC? Other out of states chains have done well...notably Portillos (Chicago based beef sandwich chain) in Buena Park. You'd blow everyone else out of the water(though I haven't tried Heritage in South OC).
