Food Factory craft Diner

This place is a short hop off I-40 and absolutely worth stopping in for a bite if you're on a road trip. The Food Factory is spacious if a bit bland. What the patio lacks in decor it makes up for with a perfect lake vista. Service was friendly and prompt with a nice southern feel.
Now for the good part, the food was astounding. We ordered the crab/lobster nacho dip and were NOT disappointed. The dip was so good it took active restraint to keep from running my finger along the bowl to scoop up the remains. As for the main course, my Thai Peanut salad was certainly more than I expected from a non-Asian cuisine focused restaurant, and my date had the salmon wrap. And I would be hard pressed to say I have ever tasted better flavored salmon. It was smoked to just the right texture and flavor.
It seems the salmon is their specialty, and you'd be doing yourself a disservice if you didn't try it in one of the many form factors they offer.
I only gave this place a four star review because I save 5's for the absolute best. This place was top notch, but let's be honest we aren't dining in France here.

Pictures won't due justice...this is a place that you'll have to put on you go-to list. A great menu both food and drink. A nice view of the lake is an added bonus. And downstairs offers entertainment with games and live bands.

We really enjoy coming here. The atmosphere is fantastic. The food is good traditional food with an interesting spin. They always have amazing desserts. Highly recommend sitting where you can enjoy the view if the lake. In the ward weather, boats dock and come in to dine. Good place to just stick back and slow down a little.
