The restaurant quality and preparation of food has gone down immensely. This was such a disappointment. My partner and I left after 20 minutes into our reservation. Unless something changes, I don’t think we’ll be going back. This used to be my favorite place to eat in Tulare.

Could be a great place to eat but after that experience it's a no, to going there again. Then written on their menu, a 3 1/2% charge is added to your bill if you use a credit card?!!! Illegal in California for restaurants to do this!!! Complain when you revieve your bill if you go there! If you want a place that is similar to the items that are served there and the quality is a hundred times better, go to Heirloom in Fresno, you won't be disappointed.

The hush puppies were undercooked and raw inside, the risotto arrived room temp and congealed on top, the chicken pot pie more like chicken paste. However, we really enjoyed the beet salad and carrot cake. They were excellent!! We were perplexed as to how great a few things could be versus how bad all the entrees were. The manager and server were very nice as was the ambiance but we would not go back based on this experience.
