Restaurant Guide

Richard's Steak House ★★★★

This super steak house has been a landmark for over fifty years. The attention to detail makes the setting and service as perfect as your meal,whether it's a quiet dinner for two,a business lunch,or a small party. All the meat dishes are cooked exactly the way you want. Richard's also has an excellent wine selection to go with your meal.

Garden Delight★★★

This attractive,new dining place is great for people who are interested in healthy eating. The cook makes sure the dishes are high in taste and low in fat. There are many salads to choose from,as well as homemade soups and steamed vegetables over brown rice.

California Pizza Plus★★★

At California Pizza Plus you can satisfy your taste by designing your own pizza pie. You can select different pizza toppings. This is the place both for fun and mouth-watering food. The restaurant is decorated with old movie posters and the waiters are efficient and friendly.

On the Run★

If you're in a hurry,you should be able to get a good,quick meal—but not here. The service is slow and the food is not very inviting. It seems like the microwave has replaced the cook. French fries are oily,and the salad may have been fresh once,but not when it gets to your table.
