That was so cool and I appreciated it too. btw it was delicious I ate every bite I was also able to customize a salad for my husband. Thank you Team Soul Salad for an amazing lunch 🥰🙏🏻🥗“

“Every time I go, spot in with the food. This is what I look for in a restaurant. Think out of the box menu with consistency every time I go with every item I order. I keep working down the menu to try everything. They obviously make their own sauce, the ranch, super bomb diggity. Fries, onion rings, salad all fresh and crisp. Mac and Gouda cheese bites, Yes! Chop cheese, you gotta have one of these! Mushroom cap “burger “ something you will crave, Parish pie, goodness wrapped up in one dish. Salmon fish & chips, fantastic. And I forgot to mention beer, beer, beer, they also have beer and mixed drinks. There is always specials on the screens. Last time I noticed something about tenderloin and bacon …… can’t wait to go back and find out!“

What surprised me is how good it is at night too. I came in a few weeks ago in the evening and it was the perfect place to kick back and have a beer or two. Easy vibe, good energy, no nonsense.

Located in the Nob Hill shopping center. Next to Golden China.

They have a variety of mexican antojitos including mangoneadas, paletas, nieves of all kind of different delicious flavors and so much more! All made in house 🤤

We tasted the guava, tres leche, mango y chocolate abuelita ice creams, all which were good but “chocolate abuelita” was my favorite.

Decor is fun and bright. Great place for kids!

Visited during opening day, as I happened to see then on a visit to Watsonville.

The staff, most of which was family is amazing and very friendly! Mr. Fernandez helped us and he too was amazing.

It’s great to see families come together!“

“I come get a slice here often. It’s unfortunate that the price has gone up so much in recent years but I guess that’s true of most places. When slices were $1.50 it was a great deal. Now it’s just about average. The pizza isn’t the best, but it’s consistent and it will satisfy that craving you have for a slice. I like that you can get just a slice or two if you want. The dining area is usually quiet, with plenty of seating for just yourself or you and a couple friends. They have some games for the kids. I like that you get the sweet smell of the breads being baked at the panaderia next door. Parking is usually no problem. The staff is friendly.“

“This is a restaurant with an elegant atmosphere , great service , good wine list and a wide selection of North-Indian dishes.
Food , however, is NOT authentic Indian. We found it bland but a bit excessive in oil & certain flavorings/ spices.

We ordered the Paneer sizzler, vegan butter chicken, mutter paneer, vegan aloo paratha, plain naan and raita.

I requested some achaar- Indian pickle and the house made achar was satisfying. Naan & raita were both very satisfying as well !

The aloo paratha was disappointing with unnecessarily excessive flavoring .

The dessert menu was very small and boring. We ended the meal with the ghulab jamun, served hot. It was good !“
