• Great, attentive staff, but not hovering over us.
• You deserve a better building - atmosphere doesn't keep up with you or your food.

“I must say, we were very impressed with this restaurant. Both my wife and I have managed restaurants previously, so we're unfortunately biased when there is bad food, service, decor, or cleanliness. We lucked upon this restaurant on a trip through Yuba City to Sacramento. Friendly, unpretentious staff welcomed us and we settled into a basket of their T&C Bleu Bread and a great shrimp cocktail. By the time the very nice salad with tomatoes, beets, kidney beans and clean lettuces was half done, we were full. But the beautifully prepared Blackened Salmon with some great sauce and a perfectly cooked Medium Top Sirloin with Brandy Peppercorn sauce made us eat more. We only stopped because we knew a second meal of great food could be taken to go. The decor is decidedly South-western; clean chairs, tables, restrooms welcome patrons and great service make this a destination, not a passer by stop. Right on the main drag of Yuba City (but no cruising is allowed - see the signs in Marysville - darn it, we were ready, too!). We'll be back. Could you please move to Red Bluff?”
