Noe J.   -   The atmosphere is just about normal for most authentic restaurants. The restaurant is split into four “rooms.” The biggest one is the smoking section, but that is the only smoking section. The other three rooms are nonsmoking. The tables are decorated with small little tiles that have little designs on them. The walls are covered with pictures of Mexican History Events and people. There are a few beer and alcohol advertisements around since they do serve alcohol. They don't serve that much alcohol though, they don't have a full bar or anything. They have some little decorative plants or little statues around too. The light covers are decorated with cool designs. Another nice addition they made to the restaurant a couple years ago is that they added a room that is a bunch of screened windows all the way around it. So in the warmer time of the year it is nice to sit in there and just enjoy the outside temperature, during the winter and colder months they put the windows back up so it can still be used. The only complaint I would have is on the weekends and some evenings it is always ridiculously crowded and busy, so that you might have to wait quite a while to get a seat. I believe it is safe to say it is the most popular restaurant in our little town. We do have an Applebees and a Garfield's but I think Los Bravos is more popular than both of them. The building is a little small for the volume of people they usually have. I have heard though that they have been searching around town for a spot to build a bigger one to relieve this problem. The service at Los Bravos I would give a ten if I had to rate them on a one to ten scale. I couldn't expect any better of service at a restaurant. I can not remember a single time I have ever had bad service there. The waiters are always as nice as can be. They are very quick to seating you and taking your order. The waiters always wear black pants and a white shirt that makes them look very professional. The food always comes very quickly. Even when they are very busy I get my food way faster than I think I would for how busy they are. Compared to some restaurants that are comparably busy will take almost an hour to get food sometimes, Los Bravos seems to still have it to you probably within fifteen minutes even on their busiest days. Once you get the food they are very good at coming back and checking on you a lot to get refills or whatever you may need. Even if they are busy the waiter is at the table probably every five minutes checking on you and picking up dishes and refilling your chips or salsa if needed. Unlike some restaurants after they give you the food, they seem to just disappear. Then your stuck without a drink and just felt like they didn't care about your business. Los bravos isn't like that though. They do everything they can to make your dinner experience a good one and keep you coming back for more. The food at Los Bravos is outstanding in my opinion. They have every thing from tacos, burritos, chimichangas, flautas, quesidillas to shrimp, steak, and fries. When they first seat you they bring out a bowl of salsa and a basket of chips. The chips are also home made not some pre-made or store bought stuff. They definitely taste way better than what you buy at the store. The salsa is really good too compared to the salsa I've had at other Mexican restaurants. The smell of the place when you get in there makes your mouth start to water because it smells so good. The plates are also pretty decent size so you get a lot of food for your money. Every plate on the menu I'm positive is good . My personal favorite is the number twenty five which is the chimicanga meal with rice and beans. I haven't been there enough times to get every plate but I've had a huge majority of them and they are all good I can't think of one that hasn't been anything less than amazing. The majority of the plates all come with rice and refried beans as a side. Not all of them do but I would say at least seventy five percent of them come with rice and beans. A lot of things also come with a side of tortillas. All the food always taste very fresh and hot the way it should be. They do have a few desserts such as fried ice cream, churros, and flan but not a whole much more. Desert definitely is not their specialty. Their desserts aren't bad they just don't have too many options in that area. Except for the fried ice cream, I definitely do not like that. Thats just me though, a lot of other people always says it is really good. I guess that is just not my thing. Los Bravos prices are about normal to any sit down restaurant. I don't know the prices off the top of my head but I'd say the cheapest plate is about seven dollars, with the most expensive at about eleven dollars but thats a gigantic plate that is probably enough to feed at least two people. The kids meals are a little cheaper probably about five dollars. They also do have an a-la-carte menu but it is cheaper to get it in a plate then buying things separately for the most part. They do have alcoholic beverages also, not to many choices though. They have some domestic and some imported beer and then they have margaritas and strawberry daqueries. They might have another drink or two but I don't think so. Other than that they just have soft drinks. They definitely have the best margaritas in town, by my opinion at least but I've heard it from quite a few other people too. less

Kathy S.   -   Piper's Pizza House has a great non-smoking, family atmosphere complete with video games and TV. Hand-tossed pizza is the main menu attraction, but wings, chef and greek salads, gyros, fettucini, spaghetti, sandwiches, and much more make it a crowd pleasing menu. Speedy home delivery is a plus too! less

Mike S.   -   My wife and I ate here last Thursday evening. We had the Farouk Special. It was excellent. The only thing that would have made the pizza perfect is to have had a bit more sauce (and this is from a guy that does not favor a lot of sauce). The place has been around since the early 1950s. It appeared that the last serious remodelling was done probably in the 70s. We would not hesitate to eat here again regardless of the decor. The pizza ranked in the top 10% of the pizzas we have had in our nearly 39 years of marriage. less

Anonymous   -   There is so much to be said about The Chicken Place, it is my favorite place to eat out and we live an hour and 10 minutes away. I have been eating there with my family since I was 10 years old. I am going to be 36 this year and I now go with my husband and my children. I have waited an hour and more and would do it again anytime. If you ever have the opportunity to go, you should. It is a tradition in our family. My dad still goes, and up until my grandmother's death in 2006 she was still going. We took her there for her birthday dinner in 2005. You won't be diappointed! less
