Literally the best Mexican food ever. I have been eating there for 25 years or more (I don't actually know because I wasn't even a teenager yet). Even though I moved to the east coast I have to stop every time I am in town. The food is so good. The owners are awesome. I love this place

#1. Walldorff Brew Pub and Bistro

Matthew Healy is on of many who mentioned Walldorff Brew Pub and Bistro.  Melissa H had this to say in her 5-star review on TripAdvisor.com,

Porrabella Mushroom fries are out of the this world good! So was the dipping sauce. The corn beef and sauerkraut sandwich was very good my husband said. The atmosphere is in keeping of what a brew pup would look like. The table and seats were fantastic. Service was pleasant. Bathroom are upstairs and there is an elevator.
