The Halibut and steak were exceptional! It was nice to be in a restaurant that was quite enough for our family to have a pleasant conversation.
We love the transition from cafeteria to fine dining. The quality of the food is supreme and the portions are large.
We went there specifically for the acclaimed prime rib. We took family members who also ordered the prime rib (5 out of 6 people.) We were all disappointed. The medium rare meat au jus did have decent flavor, however, was incredibly tough and chewy. The quality of the beef was definitely not worth bragging about. The seasoning and preparation was fine, but poor quality. Otherwise, the appetizers, sides, desserts, and wine selection were good, not great. We have been here in years past and would go back, but would not order the prime rib. We are glad that some people like it. Perhaps it was an off roast, but it's not worth the money to risk it again.
Great food, well prepared.
I ordered a pecan salad for door dash delivery. $17 for very small, no protein salad. I will not be ordering again

We make sure to go to Spoons every time we are in Junction! Get the waffles! They are so good.

We came in chasing stars—well, 4.5 of them at least—and the promise of a Prime Rib Special. What we got was a performance best described as “Waiting for Godot,” but with more water glasses and fewer refills.
From the jump, our waitress (Ava) was MIA. When she finally appeared, she brought water (hooray!) but forgot the lemon. We asked again. And again. Apparently, citrus is harder to find than the Lost Ark.
The Prime Rib arrived… and so did confusion. My plate was cold enough to register as an Antarctic outpost, while the Open Face Prime Rib Sandwich next to it was basking in Florida sunshine. Medium, we had asked. Medium, it was not. The hostess, bless her, tried: “That’s definitely not Medium.” Correct! It was more like cryogenic.
We declined a do-over because, frankly, we’d grown attached to our chairs after the long wait. Instead, the hostess slid us a $5 coupon as if to say, “Please, gamble again!” Spoiler: we’re not rolling those dice.
When our waitress reappeared—after socializing like a campaign manager at another table—she was thrilled to announce she knocked $8 off our $65 bill. Meanwhile, our water glasses sat drier than Death Valley.
And then came the kicker: a “Kitchen Sur-Charge.” So let me get this straight—I paid extra for the privilege of cold Prime Rib? If irony were edible, I’d have left stuffed.
Final Thought:
If you enjoy scavenger hunts (for lemons, servers, and hot food), this is your place. If not, save yourself the “sur-charge” and head somewhere your steak comes warmer than your coupon discount

Hard to give this place more than one star. Ordered a breakfast burrito and eggs Benedict. The hollandaise sauce is not tasty and hair in the plate. The burrito was stone cold. We waited for 45 min to get the food on a not busy day. Outside seating had a horrible fly problem due to trash and not clean tables. But food is cold and not good.

Four of us dined and all four felt the food was GREAT! We are from out of town and looked for someplace local that may have good fair! We were NOT disappointed! Everything was yummy!

I was not aware that the restaurant is connected to a Senior Care facility. It was a surprise, but thinking it through, it seems like a good concept. The weather was "iffy" so we chose to dine inside. A mistake on our part. The outside dining had a much nicer feel and ambiance. We shared the Fettucine Alfredo and the cream sauce was closer to skim milk with seasonings that didn't work together.
Delicious breakfast fare!

We have loved Spoons since they opened and love going there for lunch with our dog on the patio. This past Saturday we went and the patio, tables and grounds were filthy. Very sad. It never used to be like this. The manager came outside and picked up 2 napkins on the ground and went back in. That was it. The tables needed wiping and and concrete needed hosed. Hope it was a one time thing.

You order here at the counter whenever you are ready and have a call back button to pick up your food. The menu has a huge variety of food so you can even take those picky eaters here. Burgers, fish, soups, sandwiches, salads, pastas, sides, desserts, and a kid's menu. They also have coffee, juices, sodas, smoothies and milkshakes. Everything here tastes amazing and is very reasonably priced. I will be coming here a lot to not only enjoy the huge menu and great food, but also the giant outdoor eating area. The property is huge and beautiful and I love walking around after my meal. I even took my dog here while I ate outside and it was no problem at all
