Spacious, kid friendly, good food, great drinks. Especially when you don’t have a vehicle to leave base. 😉 Price is a bit high on the appetizers and drinks but it’s the only sit down restaurant on base. Servers are excellent and remember you and your drink order. The personal touch was nice
Finally got a chance to eat here last night and it was fantastic! The restaurant is so nice inside, very open and clean (and they have a little play area for kids too!). The service was awesome, everyone was so kind and welcoming. The food blew us away, we started with a shared pan garlic bread with cheese. Which was so light and fluffy (not really greasy honestly which I was surprised at!) and we appreciated the extra delicious garlic butter on the side. My boyfriend and mother both got the braised beef ravioli (I got to try a small piece, it was SO good) and they loved it. I had the mushroom melt sandwich with a ceasar salad and when I say I was shocked when I got my order I'm not exaggerating. The friend cheese patty easily weighs more then a pound on this sandwich, it was so decadent and delicious! The ceasar salad was very large and delicious as well, the bacon in it was thick cut and smokey which I loved. Highly recommend this restaurant, everything is fresh and actually homemade. Cannot wait to come back and try more of their menu!
We have dined at Poppi's a few times now, for both lunch and dinner and we can't wait to return! Overall the portion size and quality of food for the price is phenomenal! Everything is freshly homemade and you can taste the quality of the ingredients!! We have dined as a family and their kids zone is so awesome!! It's a perfect place for kids to play while waiting for their meals to arrive! Our 1.5 and almost 4 year old had a great time playing and the kids zone definitely kept them well entertained, so much so that they didn't want to stop playing they were enjoying themselves so much! The service and atmosphere is top notch, honestly the servers are so friendly and helpful making a great family-friendly environment!!
