10. Jason's Deli

Honestly if Jason's Deli was the only restaurant on the planet I would be okay with it. They offer a ton of different things beyond those typical of a deli and have that awesome focus on nutrition and wholesome ingredients. You can get a million different things. The free ice cream is fun too. They really do a great business. Everyone is so friendly every time I go. Food comes out faster than Panera's would (then again Panera always takes forever). Prices are reasonable for the quality and portion size is good. I get the turkey wrap and sub it with their awesome grilled chicken. Always tasty and always filling.

There was a 25 minute wait on a recent weekend, filled with families and young people having breakfast/brunch/lunch together. This regional chain has a good selection of items, ranging from healthy and vegetarian to meat loving, and not healthy at all! Our small party ordered the full range and everyone enjoyed their meal. The bottomless coffee was good, and the pots of tea were very generous and very good. My only complaint was the server who managed the heavy workload by threading her arm into the coffeepot full of hot liquid, leaving a stream of coffee on diners when she went past. Surely this will be corrected soon. Locals show their love of this chain by buying the unique mugs that the hot beverages are served in.

This is one of my favorite restaurants to go to for a nice meal - love the salmon! My boyfriend and I had our first date here a couple years ago, so we thought it was about time to return here. We had the crab cakes as an appetizer, followed by salmon, and ended the meal with the flourless chocolate cake (amazing!!!). This restaurant is also known for its excellent selection of wine. I have had some very good wines here before. Unfortunately, we ended up not ordering any on this visit. We told our server we needed a few more minutes to decide what we wanted, but then he never came back to take our order. That was very odd! By the time we got our meal he had never come back to ask about the wine, so we decided not to bother with it.

The Beer Market has always been a favorite hangout to find an amazing variety of beers in a warm, inviting environment. The communal space and the fire pits weee a huge plus. But now they have food!! Delicious pizzas, wraps, sandwiches, and a humongous shareable Bavarian Pretzel!! They have a kids menu, so donât hesitate to bring the littles! And the waiters are super helpful in helping you tackle overwhelming beer menu. Flights are available for those who want a variety or canât commit to a pint. Definitely a great place!!

My wife and I often dine at the Eddie Merlot bar. We have eaten in the more expensive main restaurant for special occasions, but for a delicious, high quality, less expensive meal, friendly service, generous drinks, and comfortable seating we frequently enjoy the bar. The bar menu is somewhat limited, but the items are much more than simple bar food. You can order from the main menu, but (except for an occasional special salad) we rarely do. The noise level is pleasantly low most of the time, but an occasional celebratory group ups the volume. We highly recommend dinner in the bar.

We had a reservation at 5, and were seated just after 5. That was the one good thing. Our server, who never told us his name, didn't take our order til 5:30. At 6:10 we still didn't have any food and we never saw our waiter, so we left. Can you imagine? The people seated around us had a different waiter. They got food and seemed happy.We would like to apologize for the unpleasant experience, and ask you to please consider giving us another chance in the future. Thank you.
