Cooper's Bar & Grill — Restaurant in Mount Shasta

The only reason we ate here is because we stayed here.

First impressions: near empty room, sticky tables, slow and not very personable service (until the bill came - at which point, he was all smiles). Ambience and patronage seemed very retirement home. Sunday is free beer with Burger night, which all of the other tables seemed to be taking advantage of. There wasn't a minute that went by that wasn't filled with coughing. At a certain point it became humourous.

Food - tried to stay in the safety zone based on the above observations, so ordered the soup of the day (chicken chilie verde soup), baked potato and French dip.

Chicken Chile Verde soup was actually pretty good but I think it says a lot about the restaurant's lack of caring when they serve a Mexican soup with oyster crackers - it would be so easy to swap out for tortilla strips!

Baked potato was completely cold. Toppings consisted mostly of sour cream and a few cold flimsy bacon chips - not even crispy baked (they would have been better off with cold store bought bacon bits!).

French dip was maybe the highlight of the horrible dinner, even though it was just ok. Very plain tasting meat with no flavor, no cheese or other toppings; bread was totally dry.

Everything about the restaurant (and the hotel for that matter) shows a...

I never ever give 1 star . I know how precious reviews are. But my experience here is so bad, it made me want to cry. I know having 4th is busy like every other establishment. But our 3 hour stay here and see people came after us being served and our food came in late and wrong and replaced after another 45 minutes one order was forgotten.all tables were served water ,not us. Every table peons was acknowledged and spent time chit chat a little. Not on our table. First ,I felt rushed when I was trying to tell our order ,not even done talking and she is already 4 steps away. Grabbed the menu and went across our faces. This is not a busy time when we finally sat in 4 tabes empty already. Tried to bite my tongue didn't want to make a scene..but this is the worst I have ever experienced of all my dining..if I can do half a star or 1/4 I will. Food is mediocre..service is worst. Never felt so little in all my life.never will never...

Good ribeye, but it could have been GREAT! if they had cooked it as I requested, medium, NOT well done! The picture shows the only 2 tiny weenie barely pink spots. I feel if that if I pay $41 for a steak I should get it the way I asked for it, but thank goodness it was so full of quality it was good. Otherwise I would have just returned it and ate more salad, because I don't complain and accept food after I complain, since COVID. The world is different and I don't complain in person, if I want to return.

Also the food server was nice but did not remove one single dish nor glass during our entire meal!!! This not a truck stop, I was surprised and disappointed. Plus she had trouble remembering what the identical looking beverages were as she put them down both times.

My son's Teriyaki dish was overpowered with teriyaki sauce, tooooo much!

But overall, we enjoyed ourselves and...
