Birthday Dinner #1 at Herbal Essence Cafe, Downtown, Spokane, WA.

Crab cakes. Tiiiiiny! And a bit salty.

Clam chowder. A bit salty.

Caesar salad.

House salad. Beautiful, creative and delicious!

Beef Wellington.

Huckleberry Top Sirloin. This was the best thing we ordered. The sauce was wonderful.

Spinach and Artichoke Halibut.

Brandied Mushroom New York.

Yellow Fin Yakisoba.


The place was.. not what I was expecting. It wasn't horrible, but it wasn't as good as I was hoping it would be. You get all of bang for your buck though. The prices are very reasonable AND each entree comes with your choice of either clam chowder, Caesar or house salad.

The food didn't taste awful, but from what I read on the menu, I was expecting presentation a little bit more like the house salad. The menu sounds very creative. The presentation for the entrees though, as you can see, was a little bit more like a Denny's, unfortunately. The place definitely has potential.

I do have to say though, the steaks were all very well cooked! And the potatoes were all very nice as well.
