“Wolfgang Puck Brownwood was excellent. We have been many times and the food is consistently very good! We have had the grouper, halibut and pasta amongst many other dishes. Last night we had the special Mac n cheese which was amazing! We also had Alejandro for a waiter last night and he was by far the best server we have ever had!! The way he described the food made you want to try something you've never had. Also, his personality was amazing!! He enhanced the entire dining experience. definitely try to get Alejandro as your server if you go there!!“

“If you are dining. Ask for Christine. She will try her best to make it a great time.“

“Tonight the back of house has made our day by their dancing and singing put smiles on lots of faces, It was so awesome to see these hard workers having a good time with the guest. Great job kitchen!“

“Food and drinks were awesome“

“Love this place. Management is so bubbly and extremely helpful. Food is good and the specials are the best town“

“5+ stars to the City Fire restaurant and the amazing HOPE for a fantastic experience and great food. Our 14 year old Akita Wishy was warmly greeted and invited to join us at one of the outdoor patio tables. Hope was SO great with Wishy -- lots of water refills -- and finding out Hope loves dogs and that City Fire is so dog friendly just made our visit that much better. Oh and the French Dip and Burger we ordered were great -- and the Bourbon Sour -- perfect! We'll bring Wishy back for more fun soon -- and we'll be requesting one of Hope's tables for sure!“

“First time here. Great dinner. However, we didn’t receive any bread after receiving our drinks. I asked the waitress for some and she brought 4 small breadsticks. Never mentioned that I would be charged $3!! Unreal. How cheap is this restaurant owner? His greed for my $3 just cost them soooo much more because I’ll never go back.“

“The staff was great especially the young man with ginger hair was friendly when he took my order & polite as well“

“After reading some of the reviews we were afraid to try this place but decided to try it anyway.I’m glad we did!Our food was awesome.Our waitress was very nice also.We will be coming back for sure.“

“Although I do like Toojays, I was quite surprised to eat there the other day with a new menu. I always go and get the stuffed cabbage which was so yummy. It has been taken off the menu. I went there yesterday specifically for them. Not sure how often I will go back now. Very disappointed!! Please bring them back!!“

“First visit to this appleby’s… it was very good. Sat at the bar (it was moderately busy). Bartender was good - not super friendly but helpful and efficient. Ordered the prime rib dip and Asian chix salad. The sandwich came out HOT including the fries - it was great! Asian chix salad was good except the dressing spilled underneath the salad and it was so much that it was overdressed. They also forgot the breadstick. We would definitely try this restaurant again.“

“Our go-to for a great breakfast.“

“Thank you Denny's for the free breakfast for Veterans Day. The food was so good and came to the table hot. Our server, Erika was outstanding! She was so sweet, and helpful and kept checking on us and filling up my husband's coffee. We weren't expecting this because of how crowded it was but Erika handled everything with ease. She is the best server we have ever had since moving here. You are lucky to have such a caring employee.“

“I got the buffalo chicken quesadilla. It comes with blue cheese in it, which I liked because it gave a unique flavor. The quesadilla had good flavor but was not over powering in spice. All of the food was fresh. Upon arriving we were immediately offered a water bowl and service was great from there on out! The restaurant is casual and open mostly serving bar foods. Prices were fair and on par for the area.“

“the wings are excellent... dry rub extra crispy. Desiree is an excellent bartender!“

“Excellent service and food“

“After golf, 4 of us stopped by, sat at bar. Ricki took wonderful care of us, we had 2 meat loaf meals, 1 fish and chips, and a chicken rice bowl. All were delicious. Place was packed when we left, I would have to say mostly local folks who know a good place. One of our favorite places.“

“As someone who works in the fire suppression service field. I almost always hate doing service in these restaurants due to how gross they have their hoods.
I can wholeheartedly say this is the cleanest kitchens I've worked in during my 11 years in this field.
Li was amazing and sweet.
Some of the best chicken wings I've had in a long while.
Next time im out this way I must get more.
10 out of 10“

“Probably the only place left that still toasts your burger buns on the grill! ?“
