This could very well be our hangout. The food is great, the beer selection always has something interesting, and the atmosphere is laid back. Weâve been there a few times and find all of the waiters and waitresses friendly, helpful, and speedy. Most people might look at this as a bar with food. It is that but much more. The food is exceptional and the bar is a welcoming place where the regulars gather and people there for the first time are made to feel welcome. A highlight is the eve changing menu of tap beers, many from micro-brewerys. My husband claims to be a burger expert and further claims their burgers are the best. My favorite at Basin 141 is their chicken sandwich, served with heaps of fries.We have not been there when it wasnât crowded. But we always get a seat. The bar is our first choice but the choice of high tops and booths are also great spots. If you there to watch a game youâll find you are never more than a couple of feet from a TV â they line the walls.Parking in the street and lots of free parking behind the building with a backdoor entrance.

Not too many eating places in this area and it is quite popular, particularly for bikers. Food was good, service good. Glad we stopped. We would probably go back again. Only problem I have, they added to the tip on my credit card statement.

Maple is a new, family-friendly culinary experience located within the celebrated Descanso Gardens in La Canada Flintridge. To honor the changes of the season in the garden, Chef Philip Mack dishes up soul-warming American cuisine informed by classic tech
We made reservations for dinner before the enchanted gardens. Server named the specials amongst them was a scallop appetizer. Prices were not mentioned. We ordered the scallops with truffle. The scallops tasted fishy, were slimy and the black truffle slices didn't taste like much. Worst part about it the dish was not only terrible, it was tiny and cost $49. Every dish was mediocre and/or bland. I ordered the fare salad with vinaigrette on the side. The dish was served with vinaigrette and extra side of vinaigrette. I'm not a picky eater, doesn't take much to please me. This was terrible!! Do not go to Maple for dinner!!! My husband ordered the fried chicken, he says it was mushy and a small portion. The server said it was a large portion, far from it. It was worse than a frozen tv dinner. They are not normally open for dinner this my explain the experience or they are simply not equipped for dinner service.

This restaurant is the epitome of a deli style eatery, with lots of room, very good atmosphere and outstanding food and service. When you go. and I advise you to go, bring your appetite as the portions are very large ( and could be shared if desired). Service is prompt and any special requests are handled with a minimum of drama. I will be visiting the HSC on a regular basis!

The sandwiches and soups that we ordered were tasty, after all they use Boar head meats. The out door garden dining was delightful, but the indoor space was lacking, and I'm not sure what. The connection to books seemed forced. I must have missed the value of this as all I saw was a topic of kids books on a display area. I liked the tables and eclectic styles of furniture. But when I looked around it seemed to fall short somehow. The restrooms were like storage closets for the vaccum and boxes. So much potential here to use the old furniture or garden theme with very little effort. So the bottom line is the sandwich was good, but for twelve dollars I would expect more of a cafe type service, rather than standing in line like a food truck. When you walk in, it's all nice, but you have to go to the back to order at a counter and pour your own fountain beverage. It isn't cohesive. I loved the patio and so did most people as it was well visited and the inside was virtually empty. I would return again to sit with friends and not rush in a loud restaurant, but this restaurant could be so much better with a few changes.

I had dinner here with a work colleague and his spouse and we enjoyed fish dishes. One of us had the salmon tacos, the other the sole and the other salmon entree and we split a piece of the carrot cake for dessert. Great meal and very fresh, flavorful. I enjoyed it and look forward to going back for breakfast some time.

Lunch today was Over The Top! Wife insisted on celebrating Father's Day for me today (Thursday) 'Cuz conflicts on Sunday. Just the two of us for a super cozy lunch. I love Mushroom ('Shroom) soup, but this cup was really over the top! Best I've EVER had. 'Shrooms freshly sliced, cream just right. Photos below show cup full and half full. Could be a meal in itself.Wonderfully Quiet!We shared the Prime Rib on the lunch menu and it was a fantastic cut, not the usual thin cut at other restaurants...this was a serious cut of Prime Rib done nicely medium rare. We ordered one entree' Cuz we knew it would be more than enuf for both of us. It was! Photo shows the entire piece, cut in half, and we still had some for 'Doggy Bag' to take home. Yes the dog will get a couple of bits, but there's enough for a beautiful lunch at home.Since entree' comes with Salad OR Soup, we ordered a side salad in addition to the Soup de Jour. Salad was very crisp and fresh lettuce, carrots, radishes, onions, bleu cheese crumbles, tomatos with a lovely dressing of choice (we chose Italian which was light and refreshing).We chose wine, a wonderful Merlot from Hitching Post Vinyards in Buelton, CA, so it was definitely a "LOCAL" wine. Same name as the historic and wonderful Hitching Post Steak House in Casmalia, CA, near Lompoc and Santa Maria, CA, but not sure if there is any connection. The Merlot was excellent, just a tiny hint of dry, but otherwise very much to my wife's liking. It really pulled the lunch together for us since we had dined in the original Hitching Post Restaurant in Casmalia many years ago. Casmalia is a Historic railroad town waaayyyy in the outback, a real railroad town, but a real down-to-earth historic dining venue.This lunch was a real treasured Father's Day celebration for us.

We love their stew. We invited friends to come as our guest and they ordered different things and enjoyed their meals. My husband and our friend enjoy your beers. You have a great assortment of beers. But for me, Tuesday nights are Stew nights. The meat is the large trim pieces from steaks and it is better than any stew meat I have ever had. There is a choice of potatoes and vegetables, great rolls and you will feel like you just took part in a feast.There are some very cozy booths and a nice bar. The atmosphere here is that of an English pub. This old cigarette smoke filled bar was treansformed into a very comfortable place to have a beer, cocktail, or full meal. It is very attractive to me as a senior woman. Lots of friendly people. The stairs to the women's restroom are beautiful with totally new decor in a 1930's style with tile everywhere and beautifully maintained.

I donât normally gush about a restaurant, but this one is worth gushing about! Had an early breakfast here. We were immediately greeted with warmth and humor and served a very tasty breakfast by our waiter Ricardo. You will love the extensive menu, the baked goods made on site, the aesthetic yet warm ambiance, and the generous and friendly service. Advice: go on the early side to avoid crowds.
