Restaurants in Clayton

“Ñ- (Enye) Latin Table-A Review
We play Bocce Ball in downtown Clayton next to Skipolini’s. The Ñ Restaurant is right next to that. We go to Sunday Brunch around once a month and the place looked nice so we figured we’d give it a try and went out there on Sunday, March 1st. Some people might reduce this to another Mexican Restaurant but I could tell right away it was so much more than that. This restaurant is a significant level up. It was also the first restaurant I have ever heard of with a name composed of just one letter. Pretentious? You can decide. Written on the embossed interior window panels were the names of all the most well-known Latin countries including Mexico, Spain, Brazil, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Costa Rica, Puerto Rico, El Salvador, Portugal, and Panama.
The restaurant had a very upscale vibe to it from the front of the building to the exotic lamps, light woodwork and hammered metal plate ceilings. The main room had two main dining areas with embossed interior glass panels separating areas. It had a giant full bar, heavily stocked. It had generous amounts of outdoor seating in two sections running the length of the front walls of windows. Even the bathrooms were upscale with black tile walls and light tiled floors.
It was quickly obvious to me that there may be dishes and foods were not familiar with which was kind of the point. I imagined that if half these countries were represented on the menu, we would be in for a treat. The tables were a high quality tropical polished wood. This worked very well with chargers and napkins which were black. The brunch menu included what I expected, foods I wasn’t too familiar with. There was a variety of egg dishes featuring sopes, tortillas, chorizo, in various combinations. I ordered the eggs benedict and my two companions ordered the breakfast burrito.
Unlike the traditional preparation with English muffins, Canadian bacon, this Latin version was built atop Sopes which are little bowls made from a corn meal base. The perfectly poached eggs fit In these bowls like they were born there. Atop the eggs was a generous portion of Carnitas with a fresh layer of Hollandaise sauce ladled over the top garnished Cilantro and pickled red onions. The test is the hollandaise because I can spot a fake hollandaise from a mile away. The eggs benedicts were delicious and perfect.
Props to the presentation of the Breakfast Burritos. They laid them out flat and cut them into four pieces. They stacked the pieces on the pates vertically so that as you looked down each piece was a cross section of everything inside it which was chorizo, eggs, potatoes, cheese, and onions wrapped in soft flour tortillas. Each was garnished with cilantro sprigs.
Our food server was pleasant and efficient as was the kitchen because the wait time for our meals was minimal. Everyone we interacted with from the host and other attendants were very friendly and professional.
If you crave something different and exotic I would highly recommend this restaurant. The pricing was reasonable and the atmosphere was outstanding.”

“Great selection of alcoholic and NA libations. Dog friendly. Staff is awesome! Plus you can grab Claytonville BBQ and enjoy it with your drinks. Great vibe and energy. Truly a (not so hidden) gem.”

“Small bar with a Wild West vibe in a nice relaxed area. Nice outside area with fire pits and good prices drinks. There is only one pool table so get your name on the list if you want to play. Not very ADA friendly.”

“Amazing sub. Excellent service. The bread was perfect and the ingredients were fresh. The Gravesend hit the spot after a long hike. This place reminded me of being back home with family on the east coast. Love this place!”

“Goated restaurant. I would highly recommend”

“Best pizza ever. Everything is so fresh and their crust is perfectly crisp. We come from out of the area each year to eat here as my husbands birthday request. 👍💕”

“Cute place to hang out. They have a variety of snack and drink options. We've tried their Matcha and Thai Tea. I could tell that they use quality products from the way it is prepared. You could taste the bitterness in the Matcha and burnt aftertaste of the Thai Tea.”

“Moved out of town and was just thinking about this place. One of the few things I miss from California. Best lattes especially their chai lattes oh just amazing!”

“The best Italian food in the area! Great for catching the game”

“Fresh made pizza easily baked in my own oven. No soggy pizza when I get home. Well made pizzas at the Clayton location with evenly distributed ingredients. Friendly service adds to the experience.”

“yummy food and a very nice place👍🏻”

“La Veranda Cafe is one of those places that keeps you coming back. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel welcome and immediately brought out some of the best bread I’ve ever had, served with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Honestly, give me that bread, the olive oil and vinegar mix, and a glass of wine, and I’m perfectly happy.

My wife ordered the salmon, and I went with the filet mignon. We decided to split both dishes so we could try everything. The salmon was delicious and paired perfectly with the vegetables. The filet mignon, though, was exceptional — so tender you could almost cut it with a fork. What really surprised me was the mashed potatoes with mushroom gravy. I’m usually not a mushroom fan, but I couldn’t stop eating it. My wife agreed and said it was some of the best gravy she’s ever had.

Our waiter was attentive throughout the evening, and the wine he recommended paired wonderfully with the meal.

On another visit, we stopped in planning to just enjoy a glass of wine and their amazing bread, but ended up trying the happy hour fish and chips. The portion was perfect for sharing, and it turned out to be an unexpected treat.

La Veranda Cafe delivers great food, excellent service, and a warm atmosphere every time we visit.”

“Great food 👍🏻 excellent value”

“Fresh and delicious! I’ll be back for sure 😋”

“My son and I went there, tonight. Generous portions, and made me a Chicken Chimichanga, even though it’s not current menu. The flavor was great, and the chicken very tender. I liked the addition of the radishes and carrots on the side. (Slightly pickled) Fast service and friendly, too. We will go back.”

“Great cookies, love the snickerdoodles the best 😋”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This Cold Stone never disappoints! My favorite location! Big shoutout to Milo — dude works hard and keeps the line moving while still being cool with everyone! Caitlyn is super friendly and always on top of it! You can tell they both care about what they do. The whole team was grinding and keeping the energy up. Respect to them all!”

“They have really good frozen yogurt, they no longer have granola anymore as a topping and that makes me sad cause that's my favorite and the only topping I like.”
