The Cow Palace - Amado

OK, so loving liver and onions is not everyone's fancy, I love it!. Cow Palace makes the best home cooking iI have found in the area so far.

Our got to place for lunch. Fries are fabulous. We love the Santa Fe Melt (be sure and substitute sourdough bread versus the wheat but both are good). Try the pitcher margarita with a 6oz beer combo...fun! Lynn's dirty martini good too.

Today was Mothers Day so buffet service was the only option. The brisket and veal were good but that was it as far as I was concerned. They were out of ham at 2pm, really? Smoked salmon was awful, no breakfast brunch dishes served, scalloped potatoeswere cold and runny and tasted funny. Desserts were not really good and no real choices. Salads were non existent, green lettucewith cherry tomatoes, what? Potato salad that was awful , coleslaw was only edible, this was your only choices. Will go backagain to try their regular menu, maybe. Not worth the price.

A really solid 4, almost a 5. The service was fast and excellent! This is so important when you have a large group on separate checks. I had the Rustic Burger and thought it was great. Could be the best burger I've had in the Green Valley area! We hada great time!

Good food and service but the air conditioning is not working well. Wear shorts if you want to be comfortable. Got the prime rib and it was phenomenal. Unfortunately you can only get the prime rib on Saturdays here. The Core Palace is a historic landmarkand has hosted celebrities like John Wayne. They aren't my favorite restaurant but it's definitely worth a visit if you'repassing through.
