text: I had no idea the history of the restaurant until we arrived. Our host pointed out that the building is actually made of adobe, as there was an \"open\" wall to showcase this. It was built by an artist and his work is displayed on the walls of the restaurant. \nThere is a traditional southwestern, cowboy motif throughout, but it's tastefully done. \nI heard Lon's was great for their sunset views and chose this as a special place to bring my husband for his birthday.  Unfortunately, no one was seated outside on their patio and where we were seated inside, we couldn't see the sunset, which was disappointing. \nI have only positives to say about the food and the service however. Attentive, friendly, polite, we never felt that we were looking around for our waitress. As a matter of fact when I reached around to grab our bottle of wine to refill our glasses she magically appeared to do that for us.\nDinner was amazing; from the tasty breadbasket and herb butter through the sabayon dessert. We ordered the salmon and halibut which were cooked beautifully. The pommes and beer-battered maikaki (sp?) mushroom sides were devoured.  Get the mushroom if you go...it was our favorite item of the evening.\nI made the reservation on open table and mentioned that it was my husbands birthday. When we were seated our host gave a card to my husband which was signed by the staff. I thought it was a nice touch.
