    Dinner at the Black Angus is always delicious! We decided to have the Campfire Feast and wow was it ever! For starters, we shared the shrimp cocktail, then, we both ordered the cooked to order steak and 2 sides. The wonderful molasses bread is always a treat. We were going to share the carrot cake, but our server, the terrific Ava, was alerted that it was my birthday, so she brought a huge and yummy chocolate chip cookie with a scoop of ice cream and an candle for me to blow out. A trio of servers even sang the traditional Happy Birthday song! It was all great fun and a great way to celebrate another year! Thank you all for a perfectly lovely dinner and evening!! We will be back!

    The food was fantastic, I will be going again. A couple of my top favorites was the stuffing and mashed potatoes, the flavors reminded me of the times I spent TG at my grandmothers. The way the buffet was set up including the carving station resulted in little time to fill your plate. The Staff was very gracious and there was someone always checking the table and asking if you needed anything with a quick turnaround when you did need something. I would recommend the RB Inn for anyone who wants to take a break from the long hours in the kitchen on TG Day. It is every bit worth the cost.

    We had only just recently discovered The Shop, and figured we'd check it out. After sharing a yummy bruschetta appetizer, we decided to design our own pizza. Admittedly, we made a minor error in ordering a large pizza (for two to share), but figured leftovers would be fine to take home. When the pizza came to our table, all of our toppings were huddled in the middle of the pizza. We were a little confused as to how none of the veggies had made it closer to the edge. With the pile of toppings in the middle, the center of the pizza was more than a little soggy. It was still tasty, but not all the way to the crust. It was a little weird. More, because we decided that the limited selection of specialty pizzas didn't strike our fancy (do people still say that?), we ordered our own combination of vegetables for our pizza. In the end, our pizza came out to $45-- steep even at San Diego prices. Aside from the pile of toppings in the middle, each topping ($3.50 for each topping?! Outrageous!) was far overpriced for the amount of toppings used. (Note: the price per topping is listed, but it's a bit of an afterthought on the menu and the server provided no reminder). It will be a long time before we decide to drop a pile of cash on an overpriced pizza that was rushed through the kitchen. Overall rating: Disappointing.

    Excellent service and appropriate noise level on a Week night . Nice “sports bar” atmosphere. The fried food, while nicely presented, was quite greasy. The breading, while thick, was overdone. Each entree had about 3X the amount of French fries needed.
