Best Lunch Restaurants in Empire

Paul gave us amazing service... The Asparagus soup was amazing.. The fresh pasta dishes were Aldente and very authentic.. This restaurant is next level!!

Excellent innovative menu. Very good mushroom panini lunch with salad. Excellent coffee using French press at our table. Thoughtful service and staff. We'll be back!

Food was delicious. I had the cheeseburger (add bacon, grilled onions) and truffle fries, my elderly friend, 89 years old, had the planked salmon & said it was really good (and he’s a retired chef so that’s quite a compliment). Of course we ended with a butter cake, which, IMO, is a no-brainer…it is amazing and great to share. Just order it at the beginning:) Our waiter, Frank, was beyond amazing. He’s waited on me before and he’s consistently friendly, attentive and helpful with suggestions. I can’t say enough great things about him. Since it was Monday night, the football game was on in the bar area (and trust me, I’m all about football, have my own FF team) but it was a bit loud and hard to hear each other talk. But, other than that, a fantastic meal out and one I highly recommend.

One of our favorite places to go in Modesto. The food is very good and the prices reasonable. Service has always been great.

Making the reservation was the hardest because you couldn’t just call.
