Best Family Style Restaurants in Ewing

Outside was a bit loud this time because there was a big party (20 pp) in the tent, but still enjoyable. Last time we went it was the opposite and the inside was louder so I think it depends on the group. Either way we always love the food there and the waitstaff are always upbeat and personable. We’ve been coming to Visalia’s for 20 years, ever since we moved to the area and it’s always been great

Not as good as last time but I understand very busy night

Our second time at Blue Bottle and we plan to return even though we live over an hour away. The Valentine's Day Prix Fixe meal was deliciously paired, expertly prepared and wonderfully served. Our wait staff, Brian, is an absolute gem. He also served us on our first visit 3 months prior and we were stunned that he recalled where we sat, what we ate and where we stayed for the weekend in nearby Princeton. He was extremely attentive without being intrusive and expertly ensured our evening was wonderful. The stuffed mushrooms and braised red roast duck crepe appetizers were off the chart delicious. Their Blue Bottle salad is simple yet wonderfully balanced. The pan roasted New York strip steaks were cooked to order, including rare for my wife which she loves, but at so many other places is poorly executed. The tomato confit with the meat was so good Brian bought us extra. We had decision anxiety on dessert, but were delighted with the profiteroles and pineapple upside-down cake with caramel sauce. They were so delicious that we went rogue getting a third ala carte dessert, the chocolate pot du creme, which was the best we've ever had.

We had a lovely Valentine's meal at Anzu Social. We decided to have a "tasting" and ordered spicy tuna rolls, Banksy specialty rolls, pork dumplings, salmon, hibachi rice, Brussel sprouts, honey chicken, spicy cauliflower. We enjoyed everything we ordered but the Brussel Sprouts stole the show. The staff were lovely and the ambience was upbeat and fun. The only slight drawback might be the price could be considered higher than average

From the moment we walked in and were greeted to the time we left - we had the ultimate first class dining experience! Our waiter Damon was super friendly and engaging - quickly asking us if we were celebrating a special occasion! It was my father’s 81st birthday! After he took our drink order he came back and decorated our table with happy birthday confetti!!! The thought was so nice and unexpected. It made my dad smile and we really enjoyed the moment. Damon was quick to take our orders and answer some of our silly questions! Service was excellent and the food was great! Damon then brought over dessert along with a special plate that said Happy Birthday in chocolate with 2 sweet desserts and a candle!! We all sang happy birthday and my dad was thrilled. It was the perfect night!! We all agreed that the experience was perfection and that is was Damon who truly made the difference! We know if we come back again - we want to sit in Damon’s section. He’s an absolute professional! All the best Abbee
