Our Favorite Lunch Spot

Our family has a favorite lunch spot that we would love to eat at everyday if we didn't care about living in a cardboard box. It is called 'Backstreet Restaurant' and it is located at 3735 Nelson St. in Riverside. It is actually a house that was converted into a restaurant. The back yard has a brick walkway, and a small fountain surrounded by tables with umbrellas. The back yard is decorated very cute... lots of plants, bird cages, and other things that make it feel very cozy and intimate. They also bought the house next door and converted it into an indoor eating area. They serve sandwiches with a side (baked beans or potatoe salad), and there is a small vegetable/salad bar. They also have lots of mini pies for dessert that are yummy! They are only open certain days and times (just lunch). It was rated as the 'Top Hidden Restaurant' in the paper. We recommend trying Backstreet Restaurant!
