Traditional pizza with fantastic topping combos. Our favorite is the T-Gun Pizza with a side of Moonlight’s homemade ranch dressing and a High Side IPA. They have a great outdoor patio if you want to soak up some Salida sunshine.

American, Baha Mexican food, full bar and lots of TVs for watching a game. Grab a seat by the window and see what’s happening on the river. My favorites - draft beer, nachos, quinoa burger or boathouse relllenos.
