| - I'll admit, I didn't know what a board and batten was until I had heard of this restaurant. When I saw the name and looked up what it was (A type of siding for walls) I initially thought it might be some type of interior design or a home improvement type store but instead found out they offer tasty sandwiches, salads, and soup. If this naming pattern becomes more common, maybe in a bizarro world there will be a home improvement store called Bread & Butter!
The actual restaurant is right next to Stonebridge Manor and is owned by the same person. It's all very new construction and the building itself is quite a lovely sight to see, but in an odd part of town since the rest of the neighborhood aside from Stonebridge is more commercial property, and for now it's just a dirt lot right next to the building.
There's plentiful outdoor seating as well as a nice indoor area. It was a nice day so we chose to sit outside. The menu is pretty simple, with fresh ingredients as key stars in each item. I went for the chopped salad at the recommendation of our server, and had an iced coffee to go with it.
The iced coffee was pretty good, it had no bitterness or acidic flavor and I didn't need to add any sweeteners or cream to it. The salad looked lovely and was a pre-dressed combination of romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, bacon, avocado, pepitas, chicken, and roasted corn. The dressing was the perfect amount of basil-ranch, lightly sweet and creamy. I loved the combination of flavors and textures which harmonized well together.
Service was friendly and attentive.
