Delicious bread service. I 'm in the bread basket is a must camp but if I 'm going to be charged for it, it has to be top notch. It was! Very good big rock Old Fashioned. Seared Ahi Salad was a bit meh. Service was friendly but really loud you could hear her voice above all others throughout the dining room with every conversation she had. Update: Returned a few days later for Happy Hour. No menu offered donut was just dictated. No taco Tuesday as shown on Facebook on most preceding Tuesdays. Calamari a bit well done but tasty.

The curb appeal of The Monkey Cat reviews prompted us to give it a try both of us were underwhelmed. Very slow (single server)on a Saturday at about 2 pm(day before holiday). Ordered the chicken parm sandwich on special mac and cheese. The chicken parm on the dinner menu has received good reports, kinda similar execution on the sando on toasted sour dough except for the uneven brie cheese distribution, don't remember Ham?,ok flavor..meh. Side was some Luke warm French fries. Mac Cheese, lightly cheesed,bacon, ok.. not memorable. Split both items with Mrs D Cute shaded patio area outside looks promising for summer beverages. Anyway, I want to come back for dinner,maybe we caught them on an off day .
