They were friendly, helpful, and very knowledgeable about the menu. I really appreciated them! The food: The food was very good. All of our orders were correct! It's roughly $17-30 per dish depending on what you get, so it can get a little spendy. The environment: The environment is slightly dim lighted and darker toned. It has a classy feel and the tables are slightly crammed, but it's not that bad. Final thoughts: I really liked the service and the food! Kudos to the team at Maelstrom Noodles Bar!

The pizza was outstanding--perfectly blistered crust, generous toppings, and an incredible balance of flavors. The combination of savory toppings, house smoked pulled pork, bourbon BBQ sauce, pickled red onion and fresh pineapple created a unique sweet-and-tangy bite that worked surprisingly well. Every slice was loaded and cooked to perfection. The whiskey selection was equally impressive and the wine is always lovely. Whether you're a casual whiskey drinker or a true enthusiast, the bar offers plenty of options to explore. Pairing a great pour with exceptional food while enjoying a wonder view always makes for an unforgettable meal! We finished with dessert, and it absolutely delivered. The Strawberry Rhubarb Cobbler was to die for and the vanilla gelato was the perfect complement. Beyond the food and drinks, the atmosphere was warm, inviting, and relaxed, with great service and beautiful views. It's the kind of place where you can easily spend a few hours enjoying good food, good whiskey, and good company. Highly recommend for any occasion! Date night, a night out with friends, or anyone just driving by and looking for a lunch spot! We'll definitely be back.

This place was pretty mid. We went around Memorial Day weekend, and I'm still thinking about how…read moremuch money we wasted here. The food was extremely overpriced, and I overheard a server tell another customer that the chili comes from Costco. They can't even be bothered to make it in-house. I'll excuse the long wait to order and receive our food because of all the large groups stopping here before heading over the mountains. We were part of that crowd too, so that's understandable. The only redeeming quality of this place was the sweet potato fries. They were kind enough to do a lettuce wrap for me, but I specifically asked for no cheese. A few bites in, I found small pieces of cheese, and on another bite, the chicken was covered in it. At that point, it wasn't even worth saying anything because we just wanted to eat and leave. The chicken was rubbery, like it had been microwaved, and the beef was dry and overcooked. Overall, I wasn't impressed. For two sandwiches, one milkshake, and a 16-ounce iced coffee, we spent $62.79. I'd rather go to McDonald's. .

The broth was perfectly seasoned, clams were cooked just right and it had an elegant touch of pork belly, saffron and smoked sausage. Genuinely one of the best orders of clams I've ever tasted. We also ordered the Halibut with a curried coconut sauce and the fried rice cake. The halibut was cooked perfectly, the rice cake was AMAZING!! Perfectly fried and paired so well with the intense and rich flavor of the coconut curry broth. The halibut was seriously the star of the show, you can tell it is fresh by the quality of the meat. My boyfriend was very surprised at how the risotto was prepared. He added steak to his risotto which was cooked to a perfect medium rare. The texture and taste was spot on. Our server, Sharae was very pleasant and reccomended alot of amazing drinks to us as well. She took excellent care of us with having the balance Of professional yet fun/ outgoing personality. She was just the sweetest. We finished our meal with a mouthwatering LEMON tiramisu. Out of this world, Melts in your mouth!! Perfect absence of lemon, cream and the cake was rich and both delicate at the same time. 10/10 best restaurant in town. Will be back for breakfast. The owner Kim was so awesome, very fun to converse with. Her and Sharae made our experience very memorable. Thank you for taking great care of us!!

3.5. We had a reservation and were sat right away…read more Unfortunately we didn't have a server assigned to us, so we had to wait until I finally said something. The server that got us was very friendly and nice. We ordered cocktails; a sparkling rose' for me and a jalapeño mojito for my husband. The jalapeño mojito was delicious. Just a tiny amount of heat and the jalapeño came through. I ordered a Caesar salad to start. Was topped with anchovies and was good and crisp. My husband ordered the halibut with green curry. It was cooked to perfection and very tasty. I got the pappardelle ragu because I was told it was fresh in-house made pasta. The sauce was good, but the noodles definitely didn't taste fresh or have in-house made texture. I wouldn't order it again. I was having fomo so we ordered the ribeye medallion crusted with potatoes and I wish we wouldn't have. It was the most bland dish I have had recently. I don't think the ribeye or the potatoes were seasoned. I get that it came on a sweet onion jam, but that was just sweet. There was no salt or pepper coming through at all on the meat or potatoes. I wish we would have sent it back. I am just not that person. Luckily with enough fresh ground pepper and salt at the table, it made edible. We told our server, she didn't seem to care. We decided we couldn't end on a bad note with the ribeye medallion, so we got the lemon tiramisu. I have never heard of lemon tiramisu. It was so good. I highly recommend. I saw the chop tomahawk come out of the kitchen multiple times and it looked amazing. Ambiance is great. There is an open kitchen so that can be loud. Be aware there are high top tables when you make reservations. Would definitely go back.
