  Made an order over the phone for an office, the entire process was a breeze. They even wrote the corresponding names on each dish. Thank you!

  This has always been a go-to when wanting a good bite to eat over time. The food is good except the salads that were very good have gone downhill since using tasteless and wilted red leaf lettuce in place actual mixed greens or romaine....this started a while ago and we hoped it was due to the romaine being pulled from the shelves a while ago. The use of red leaf lettuce is a cheap switch out and just gross.
  
  Please stop using red leaf lettuce ...it should remain as a garnish under the tomato on a blue plate in a cheap diner along the roadside in the middle of nowhere. The salads used to be delicious. They are awful thanks to the switch to this cheap tasteless lettuce. Yuck.

  Service was decent, food looked nice... but taste? Agh, sorry, didn't hit the mark!
  
  I ordered a special called the hot pasta, and I believe it appears on the menu quite often. It looked darn good, but the pasta and sauce were bland. The mix of veggies served on top was pretty spicy and the chicken was dry. The dish felt very odd because the majority of the plate was bland, and then you've got this one section that's got too much of a contrasting flavor going on.
  
  My company had a portobello sandwich with a side of Italian pasta and chips. The sandwich ingredients were on point, but the toast of the bread wasn't. The bread was so toasted that the crunch was too much for our gums and made eating painful. Additionally, the tomatoes and spread made the bread soggy on the inside too soon. Was the pasta bland? Yes. Oof!
  
  I've known of Desert Edge's existence for so many years that it's kind of weird I hadn't visited before. I don't love it, I don't hate it, but I really didn't like it much. I don't find overly bland and poorly textured food appealing.
  
  Maybe the soups are good? Maybe the nachos are good? Maybe other sandwiches aren't too toasted? I might find out one day. Maybe.

  Grabbed some dinner on a Friday night with coworkers. We were able to find a table easily for all of us, getting there just before 6pm. The dining area is large with lots of options.
  
  I love Brussels sprouts so you know I had to order this for my appetizer. Shared with a few other like minded folks on the team.
  
  For my main course I had the Yellow Curry Chicken sandwich with pasta salad. The curry could have used a bit more flavor. The standout honestly was the bread. I'm a sucker for sourdough that has a good chew and that tangy flavor. This bread was perfect. Pickled veggies were also a nice addition. I usually prefer fries to chips but honestly these chips were perfect and I devoured every single one.
  
  The only main drawback for our experience was the service. Our server didn't stop by very often (you lost out on four dessert sales because of this) and wasn't very friendly either. Thankfully the other person bringing our food was very friendly.
  
  Lots of variety on the menu will satisfy your crew. I'd definitely stop by again to try out other items.

  This was probably one of the worst experiences at a restaurant that I have ever been to. No wonder I hadn't heard about this place until I was in Trolley Square. My fiancé and I tried out this restaurant on a Sunday night two weeks back. When we walked in the restaurant seemed pretty empty and the woman behind the counter said there was open seating, which for a fairly large restaurant is very inconvenient when you only have two servers on and their running around like a chicken with their head cut off.
  
  When we finally had a server arrived she seemed pleasant but nothing more. Overall she did the basic job without up-selling or checking in on us. We ordered the Asian skewers as an app which besides the beer, was the best thing they had!
  
  The menu is very interesting. There was nothing special that stood out to us. Essentially it was typical pub food but "spicy." I ordered the French dip which was fine at best. Barely any spice, but edible. My fiancé had the pulled pork sandwich which was the driest thing I've ever seen!! There was barely any sauce on it. He doesn't give any back, so he struggled to eat it. This restaurant does not do meals as good as they do beer. Stick with the apps and beer if you come here, then you will be fine.
  
  The worst part about the experience was when we were sitting after our meal, we were able to see through the bar to the kitchen window where we can see the kitchen place the meals when it is ready. One of the BoH staff placed a handful of chips on a plate without gloves multiple times. Disgusting!! Couldn't believe it.
  
  In all, beer is great and food is terrible. Don't waste your time!
