Great "New" Restaurant

Searching for a restaurant in the area is always a challenge. Sure there are great places for bar food (Hill Top, New Faull Inn,) but hard to find anything more than that. I like the food at the Willow but even that has seemed to slip. We saw an ad in the Ad Liner for O'Brien's in Mio at the Songbird Motel. The Menu looked pretty ambitious so we thought we would give it a try. It's pretty low profile, we must have driven by it a hundred times and not noticed it.
Run by a family who operated restaurants in Colorado and Key West we were met by Betty the owner. They opened about two years ago.
We then had a Great meal. Good bread with three butters, then Chicken Noodle soup, then a relish tray with cole slaw , pickles, sauerkraut,and more. For the main course I had Garlic Chicken and Elaine had ribs. Both came with great potatoes.
We also splurged and had Key Lime Pie. By the way they serve good wine too.
Bottom line good service, good food , good vibe at the Songbird Motel.
