  Note: Because I consider this practice somewhat deceiving, I have given the restaurant a standard, three-star rating. Lazy Dog: This is for the people that are not aware of the following. Yesterday my friend I went to the Lazy Dog Restaurant for dinner; great food and service. It is one of my favorite restaurants. Also, what I saw, as always, very clean and well kept men’s restroom. It seems male staff washes their hands thoroughly with soap and water prior to leaving the restroom. But here is the flaw with the restaurant: [But let me make it clear, this practice is very common in quite a bit of restaurants.] Point-of-sale systems often calculate percentages based on the total bill, including taxes. A person does not have to and should not, unless the person wishes to do so, pay a tip on the sale tax as well. "Tipping a percentage of the pre-tax amount is the standard etiquette in the United States, but many restaurant point-of-sale systems default to calculating suggested percentage tips based on the post-tax total sale. While post-tax tipping is a common personal choice, tipping on the pre-tax amount is generally considered the standard guideline."

  Food is not that good, onions rings weren’t crispy at all and chicken was dry. Service was decent and you can bring your dog.

  If I could give negative stars I would. Food tastes like your drinking oil, service is very very slow and staff looked annoyed with us when they found out we had 7 people and wanted to sit outside oj the shade since we bought our two dogs.

  Visited our family dog’s favorite place to eat for his belated birthday! Parking: This spot is located in a busy plaza. There’s a large parking lot. Finding a parking spot close to the restaurant is difficult, but you’ll definitely find a spot further out. Ambiance/Environment: We visited on a weekend, so of course there was a dinner rush. It was very packed with more people waiting to be seated. We sat outside because we brought our family dog. Since we opted to sit outside, we only waited about 12 min to be seated. The downside of sitting outside are the pieces from the trees constantly falling. Service: Shout out to our server Aiden! He was very attentive by checking on us multiple times. Throughput was surprisingly quick after ordering. We were told the kitchen was slow, but our food came out in a timely manner. Food: We all ordered the Cajun fries to share. I thought the Cajun fries were okay. It has a unique taste than the usual Cajun fries. It’s more citrusy than I’d prefer. I ordered the Fried Chicken Dinner for my entree. It came with 2 buttermilk fried chicken breasts drizzled with hot honey, red skin mashed potatoes, sautéed spinach & bacon, and white gravy. The buttermilk fried chicken was fried and seasoned well. The honey made it sweet, and the white gravy gave it extra flavor. The spinach was accompanied by a generous amount of bacon, which I appreciated. Pricing: Prices are as expected $$ from a supply chain restaurant. Will definitely have to come back to take advantage of their happy hour deals.

  Sierra, our hostess, was a delight from start to finish. She was attentive and genuinely friendly, and her suggestions were spot on. Every dish and drink she recommended turned out to be a winner. I ordered the Cuban sandwich. When it first arrived, I will admit I was a little concerned because it looked slightly small. It came already cut into three pieces and stacked, which made it look compact at first glance. Once I dug in, I realized it was impressively thick and generously filled. There was a lot going on inside, and it was satisfying from the first bite to the last. It was served with home seasoned fries and a side of ranch dressing. Nothing says Cuban cuisine quite like classic American ranch, but somehow it worked. I also tried the huckleberry infused iced tea, something I had never had before. It tasted fresh and clean, clearly made with real ingredients, and it was refreshing without being overly sweet. We sat out on the outdoor deck on a pristine 72 degree Southern California afternoon. Not a cloud in the sky, literally or figuratively. It was the middle of the day and moderately busy, yet still quiet and relaxed. A really pleasant experience all around.
