Marie Callender's - Riverside

My older sister and I ate to the one who is closed years ago. My sister chose the place because I didn't hear about it. Both them and I were very impressed. And we had both eaten in five star restaurants all over the country and grown up on finer food in NYC. For me it was really a pleasant surprise. We then ordered our turn into the salad bar. When my sister came back, she told me excitedly that we would most likely not eat what we ordered as a salad and soup bar was so extensive. I didn't believe her until I saw the selection of breads and soups and salads. We both made a meal from soup and salad and made our entries. Everything was so fresh and delicious. I loved the many possibilities of bread for soups. Our main meals were some of the best food we had on the west coast. I'm glad I have to share this food with my older sister.

I had the mini pot combination. I was a bit hesitant to get it since a few times it was very dry inside and outside. I was very glad I ordered it! The crust was flocky, the filling was fresh and hot, Veggies were not soggy, chicken was all white meat and no fat and no gristle. I ate everything. It was so delicious! This will be my first choice next time. Now the service was very good, and our server ensured that our glasses were full. She was fast and professional. We? Marie Callender?s!!!

Had the Mini Chicken Pot Pie with Cesar Salat on the side and piece of cake! Everything was delicious! Oh, you can't forget about the amazing maize bread and honey butter! Melt in the mouth! Enjoy?

Marie's, as we called it children, was always a family advantage for special occasions and I am pleased to say that if possible, the food is even better than I remember. Mike, our server was wonderful, knowledgeable and attentive. His suggestions and descriptions were on site. It was kind of busy, but Mike always seemed to be right there when we needed him and our meals were all excellent, hot and all served simultaneously. Everyone looked the picture perfectly! Although we were sadly taken with Mike's enthusiasm and the delicious looking and smelling food that no one believed to take pics. Don't worry, we'll be back soon to correct this. Thanks Marie and Mike. See you soon.

Had lunch today at Marie Callendar's. I was asked in a survey, would I recommend for vegan meals. I'm not a vegan . But, I did have vegetable soup it was loaded with great fresh vegis. I also had a apitizer of buffalo style cauliflower. I enjoyed my experience . Thanks Big John
