We had breakfast here last Saturday am....the place is packed and packed for a reason.  The place rocks!  3 of us had french toast with the usual (eggs & swine) and one of us had blueberry pancakes....it looked great and it was great.  I would love to come here again!

I am spending too much time in Sactown......not the greatest place in California but seeing that I am here I might as well try and enjoy some decent places to eat.  This is not a bad place.....try the shrimp tacos (skip the secret sauce).....large portions and not too bad.

I went to lunch here today with a coworker.  This place is pretty darn good.  I ordered the steak salad and boy was it good!  It looks a pretty cool place and can only imagine how the crowds are at night.  Keep it up Tower Cafe....its a great joint!

Had lunch here yesterday...with GF and her family.   This is my first visit to this fast food flip joint. I ordered the fried chicken with canton pancit as a side dish. The chicken was actually pretty good but the pancit was a zero.  If i'm in the area I would come back but I will not order the pancit.

Lets start by saying that the service was good.  We ordered the Chicken Pizza....it came with baked chicken, mushrooms and spinach.  I think they may have missed the spinach....or they put very little on our pie.  We also thought that the dough was not typical of a thin crust type pizza.  Overall.....it was ok.....may be next time we will order a different type of pie.

We wanted to spend sometime in Mendocino to checkout all the sights.  We really like this dainty little town.  Very friendly people and the views from the high cliffs are breath taking.  The JD House is a nice and well kept place.  The rooms are well appointed and clean.  We enjoyed our stay here to relax and get some much needed R & R.   There is not a lot to do here but if you enjoy the ocean and some peace and quite....this is the place for you.

On our way back from Medocino we stopped by this place because it look pretty decent and we were starving.  We ordered a pasta pescadero and I order a crab cioppino.......we really had a great meal.  I downed my meal in about 20 minutes flat while my more conservative and healthy wise GF only ate about 1/2 of her dish.....this did not mean that she didn't enjoy her meal it's just that she's more sensible than I.   Good service and great views.....come here if you are in Bodega Bay.

My GF and I spent the weekend in Mendocino so we decided to head up to Ft. Bragg to check this place out.  It was my stupid recommendation.  Boy was I and my sweetie disappointed!  We started off by sharing a bowl of Clam Chowder....its was pretty good and it was the best part of the meal........it was down hill from that point.  The waitress who was very friendly asked us when she took our order if we would like regular fries or garlic fries.......ok folks.....everyone here has ordered garlic fries before so your expectations are predetermined.  Little did we know that when she said garlic fries she meant RAW GARLIC fries......what a downer a big downer.   We could not eat the frigen fries.....we might of just as well ordered 3 cloves of garlic and called it a day.    The fish and chips and my sweeties turkey club was ok fare.  The garlic fries offend my GF so much that she could only eat 1/4 of her sandwich.  Needless to say we will not be coming back anytime soon.

We had lunch here today....dim sum....not too bad.  The food was pretty tasty but we were a little disappointed in the lack of variety of this dim sum.  The service was ok....if you're in the area try it out its not bad.

A buddy and I had lunch here today.....we found this place by shear luck.  The place is very clean the the taco carnitas are very good.  The chips and salsa was also very tasty.  The number one thing I will take away from this place is its CHEAP....!!!!  Great food and CHEAP.....that is my kind of place.
