First thing you should know of you're a first time visitor is that parking is divided. When you pull up to the front of the restaurant, you can see that if you would've driven to the next drive way there is much more parking. This place is cute. The front entrance brings you to the bar area. Everyone is helpful and friendly. If you continue on, the outdoor patio is nice. Good ambiance. Then there is another area. Everything is clean with a bit of a garden feel. There's a little creek running through the back. Most importantly, the food and drinks were good, and not overpriced! We got a big burrito, chips, salsa, macaroni and cheese, and a taco plate. All great!

Located on the side of the road. Friendly staff, we were a small group of friends and had a well stocked and quality buffet. Not always easy when there are many of you and there the managers are assured.

I have not had the opportunity to be in this place, and I cannot comment more on it and its services.

My daughter's soccer club held an event here. The place itself was OK, but I want to say something about the food. I ordered a burger and was pleased to see that it matched my specifications (no mayo etc.). However, on biting into it I discovered that had not been cooked properly. Rare, or more like raw, on the inside. I did not eat it as I was concerned it was not safe.

This place has come such a long way from the early 2010's when I was in college and frequenting this spot for line dancing night. It's much better taken care of and inviting now! It's been the perfect spot for a couple of after work meet-up's recently and they even have a great menu of food options. Recently a friend and I tried their nachos, which were great! They have a great cocktail menu and even offer the ability to order items and pay at your table, meaning you never have to flag a waiter/waitress or go to the bar. Super convenient. They still have a fair amount of parking spaces right out front and clean restrooms. I really like this spot!

Really good pulled pork and pulled chicken sandwiches. Fries were great, nice and crispy outside, and fluffy inside. Also a nice salad, and corn on the cob as well.Parking: Was easy at 2:30 on a Sunday.

Bad service and the food is greasy and over priced. Won't be going back again for food.

I went with my boyfriend. The food portions are small for the price it is. Too expensive but staff is nice.

I really like this place! The outdoor patio is super nice and I love their tacos. Their chips and salsa were really good, and the vibes are really nice. The waiters kept asking if we needed anything and how everything was going. We will definitely be coming back :)

This is a great place. It's just where hollister begins kind of near the u-haul across from java station. This is a great place to come to to watch sporting events or just grab dinner. I usually get their nachos which are really good and the plate is huge. I've also had the tri-tip which is also excellent. They have all kinds of things on the menu that everyone will like. It's a little out of the way since I live downtown. If it was closer, I would totally go more.Parking: Tons of parking

We used creekside to hold my wife's 50th birthday and they did an amazing job. Everyone commented that food was amazing and it was a perfect environment to celebrate. I would also add it was a very reasonable priced.
