We stopped in Truxtons because it is next door to the Tesla charge station. Wow! We loved the food and the service. Our server, Mark, was amazing! And they have outdoor dog friendly seating.

This is one of my favorite places. I enjoy this location to dine in outside. The food is always delicious.

When you walk in the door, you know you are in for a vacation. Great decor and lively with people. Luckily we were able to build a back table next to the gate (not a great table but better than nothing!) which didn't phase us in as we knew we had been eating after having a great meal here two days earlier. I ordered the maple fried rosemary chicken sandwich, my friend had the fried chicken and we tried the Chinese chicken salad. Very tasty and fast service.

Fabulous! The service, the delicious flavors, the hospitality and the atmosphere made this the perfect spot for a celebratory dinner with my son. Prices are amazing, given the ambiance and generous portion sizes. Would recommend this spot for a date night because of the comfort, privacy in the booths and warm lighting. Highly recommend!

Food was great best breakfast I've had in a while! Service was really good everyone took the time to make sure I was good!! Definitely a must try if in the area!

I really enjoyed my visit here! Went with a group of friends and had the mushroom linguini and added chicken 5oz. So delicious! It was creamy. Next time I will order a garlic bread for the sauce. I also tried some of the tres leches french toast my friend ordered. I never had that item only the tres leches. The french toast was really good! If i hadnt got some of that i would have had ordered the bread but I got full. Everyone’s food looked delicious like the mac and cheese pasta my friend ordered but I think I would order the same thing again to try it with bread next time ;) excellent customer service we had an abundance of water at our table the entire time. Also my friend chose this location over a nearby one because they were easier to work with (reservation for 9) and the other place did not answer :( I noted the waiters/waitresses accommodate other customers as well and was glad to have gotten a pasta that I liked because Im always nervous trying new places, bon ap!

Fun, quick great service!

Very diverse menu, California chic. Upscale diner interior, fun retro music, attentive staff. Reasonable price for the high quality. I ordered French onion soup...not great, too much cheese, but not bad. My guest had a burger and really liked it. We were very pleased! If the view were better, I might give it that 5 star.

Great find on the first morning of the year, couldn't have asked for a better breakfast. The bacon, fried egg, brie cheese sandwich on sourdough was hearty and delicious. The bread was soft and crunchy, the cheese tasted amazing along the fried egg and bacon, the greens give it a little bit of freshness. The huevos ranches were great, a really nice, homey flavor to them and the spicy chicken taquitis were a good addition.

Great service, everyone is friendly and helpful. The 1/4 chicken is delish with the perfect amount of food. The chicken Marrekesh was so tasty and the couscous and riced cauliflower combo was really good! Only down side is the parking. Not ready to find Street parking and they charge for the valet (but not too expensive) Highly recommend ?
