The sandwich options in Redmond Town Center are terrible. Piccolino's is way overpriced and consistently serves stale bread while Redmond Subs is not even as good as a Subway (which is bad). What makes me hate Piccolino's is that there is hardly any selection of vegetarian options at all (including in the soups) and the one "cheese" sandwich they do offer is gross, the bread is almost always stale (which is just plain unacceptable), and you're going to spend at least $10 on a lunch that should cost 5 or less. The only positive thing I can think to say about Piccolino's is that the employees have always been very pleasant, prompt, and friendly.

I just came back from Thai Ginger in Redmond, and like I remembered, the place is still very crowded during lunch, but the portion of the food is definitely different. For the two of us, we ordered, panang curry and curry fried rice. We were expecting to be full, but we were left with wanting to eat more food! Maybe I'm just a big eater, but I think they could afford to give us just a little more. As for the food, still pretty good as I remembered it to be, I only wish the portions were bigger.

Having been to Thailand a few times i can say this place is ok. Meaning it is a good lunch place to go to if you are in the area. The food is fresh and they have a variety of dishes to choose from. Even have a daily lunch menu.

Nara is across the street from RTC on Cleveland Street. I've found it's the freshest and tastiest of the Japanese places in the area (Todai makes me gag, and Kikuya's rolls are too big, dry & not the freshest tasting).

Claim Jumper is very chain-y (it is a chain after all, I guess). They serve ridiculously large portions for lunch and dinner and almost everything on their menu is very fatty, greasy, and unhealthy - even the salads! Every time I eat here I feel sick afterwards from all the grease. The food is also pretty mediocre and only tastes remotely good because of all the fat in it.
The bar area is good for meeting up with a group though, and has lots of tv's for game watching, and booths for smaller parties.

Looks like new owners have the helm. Last two trips were not as good as in the past; service was slower, buffet not kept as fresh. Here's to hoping the new owners get back to the previous standards.

I have a difficult time with most restaurants due to my food allergies. A plain steak and no butter on steamed veggies is what I like.... it sounds simple but rarely do I succeed. Matt's was similar in execution to many of my experiences. I ordered as I always do "no salt, pepper, au jus, no butter, no special or secret sauce, is it marinated?, I need it with nothing, dry and boring". I sent the first steak back because it was over salted - but the waiter questioned and the kitchen swore that there was nothing on it. The second one came salty... but no so bad. I was told again that there was nothing on the steaks until after they were grilled and then a lemon butter thing was put on unless you asked for nothing (I didn't get the lemon butter - whew!). When I called this morning to double check the chef said they salt and pepper everything on the grill. Clearly the kitchen staff is missing the meaning of "nothing". Salt and pepper are fine for me.... something when people say nothing could compromise their health.

Starbucks always has great drinks, but I've had some great luck at this branch. The coffee is always great and I've never had burnt coffee here. The staff is always pleasant and very helpful. It's also in a great location! :)

Oobas is one of our favorite Mexican restaurants. The atmosphere is very low key and simple, although they have some big wooden tables that make eating in a pleasurable experience for the nostalgic spirited. The meals cost between $6-10 and all of the ones I have tried have been really delicious. Try the steak burrito for a very filling and tasty lunch entree. Also, they sell their fresh salsa for take out and it is well worth the price. Two thumbs up!
