Really enjoyed my lunch here, as did the rest of my family. The service was great and the person doing the ordering was super helpful. Drink selection was also great. I have nothing but good things to say. Definitely would go back.

The service here was unbeatable!! Siyana went above and beyond to make sure she provided amazing service! I was super indecisive with what to order and she was very patient! She made sure that my friend and I were happy with everything we got and I would highly recommend to come check this place out! She deserves a raise and I will definitely be coming back because of the amazing service! The ambiance here is amazing, the restaurant is super clean and modern! The food was delicious and for the price this place is unbeatable!

Great food, burger was great but could use a higher quality cheese by default (tastes like a cheaper cheddar). Seafood chowder is good! Atmosphere is great with historic photos of Sunnyvale, but the separate room has poor acoustics: you can’t really hear anyone speak. Cookies are fabulous and soft drinks are great. Stubborn sodas are very good: root beer and cherry are best, pineapple cream could use much more carbonation (but that’s how it’s served typically), and the vanilla cream tasted bad today (probably needed refill on syrup). I would definitely come back as this is one of the best burgers I’ve tasted in the area!

I really love this restaurant chain, and this location is no exception. Everything is always delicious, and the portions are generous. The only thing I’d like to see improved is the desserts - I wish they were fresh rather than straight from the fridge. It would also be nice if the presentation was more exciting, like a flaming American apple pie with a scoop of ice cream.

This is my go to spot. The location Sunnyvale is my favorite! The atmosphere is so welcoming and the staff are so friendly and accommodating. The food is top notch and honestly, the best place I've found for my gluten allergy. The GF bread is amazing!

I recently visited the store. The atmosphere was vibrant, perfect for a casual meal with friends or grabbing a quick bite. Their menu offered an impressive variety, with a range of sandwiches that catered to all tastes everything from classic deli-style options to creative combinations. I ended up trying one of their signature sandwiches, and it was fantastic well-prepared, fresh ingredients, and full of flavor. However, the experience was slightly marred by the fries. While the sandwich was top notch, the fries were a letdown. They clearly had been reheated, lacking that crispy, fresh from the fryer texture. It’s a bit of a bummer because a good batch of fresh fries can elevate the whole meal, but these didn’t do justice to the quality of the other offerings. Overall, it’s a cool spot with great food, but if you’re a fry lover, you might be a little disappointed. Hopefully, they switch to making them fresh to order because everything else was worth the visit!

The steak and sea bass taste great! Side dish mushrooms are too salty for me. The rice, bread and broussel sprouts are very good!
GIGI GRIFFIN
Lots of space, comfortable seating, great service and yummy food served quickly. We went as a large group and everyone was happy with their orders and we were able to sit together. I had the half grilled chicken sandwich and side house salad. It was fresh, well prepared and satisfying. Reasonably priced for the quality and freshness. Order and pay at counter so easy for groups! Highly recommend!
