I've been to Eatery twice in the past couple of weeks because I just love the food and my friends and I have such a great time when we go. ”

The first time, i ordered the house made ravioli - the combination of flavors is mouthwatering - the ravioli stuffed with chix, eggplant in a sage butter sauce - omg! ”
- “
It was fried, but not too heavy, and the sauce was interesting. ”
- “
The food is good but not the best value. ”
- “
Good food, friends, and fun. ”

She did a great job at recommending food and wine, and she kept us entertained with her fun personality. ”

Eatery has the perfect menu of international influences showing up in American cuisine. ”

- “
The mole sauce is the best I have ever had (comes as part of wild mushroom empanada). ”
- “
The food was mediocre but what was most off-putting was having to watch the staff stand around an empty dining room pretending to be alert and ready to Herr-manager's whim. ”
- “
The bar is nice and the drinks are tasty, but that's where the yums ended. ”
- “
The top layer of my adobo salad was nice enough, but just below the surface it began to swim in a cloyingly sweet dressing, so that it became like some weird melted jello concoction. ”
- “
Although the homefried potatoes were not worth the plate space, next time I'll ask to substitute a nice salad. ”
- “
It has this delicious cilantro pesto on the chicken, pleasingly tart slices of tomatillos & melted pepper jack that is not spicy at all. ”
- “
Amist the plethora of food choices on 9th Ave, the Eatery is a true gem. ”
- “
The staff is welcoming and the food is always good. ”
- “
don't mind paying the prices they are charging at Eatery, but in return I expect both decent service and food. ”
