I think there are Sharis in California, but we have never felt
compelled to visit one until the night we were staying in Central Point,
OR and had nowhere else to go for dinner. Our expectations weren’t
very high, so we were pleasantly surprised. While Sharis does not
offer anything close to a gourmet experience, the food is fine and
definitely merits a B (“Better than expected”) in my
“road restaurant” scale.
The restaurant itself is your basic family restaurant/coffee shop. It
does not have a particularly gimmick, but it’s pleasantly appointed; one
of its dining rooms has all booths and the other one tables and chairs.
We were offered a choice of a booth or a table, though we had to wait
for a few minutes for the former. Service was very good.
We all liked the thick beer battered onion rings, they were tasty
(though not very crispy) with and without the ranch sauce. My “baby
back” ribs ($10) were large and meaty, definitely not what you think as
babybacks, but there was plenty of meat. The BBQ sauce was very
average. It came with some mixed veggies, OK loaded mashed potatoes and
an absolutely marvelous slice of corn bread. Its texture was closer to
corn cake and it was rather sweet and quite delicious.
Mike had the fish and chips and they were pretty mediocre. He felt the
fish had too much breading and the fries were merely OK. The portion
was also not very large, though mine was generous enough to share. Mika
had the sliders from the kid’s menu. Mike thought they were very dry,
but Mika loved them: “they tasted just like the ones from school,” she
said. Camila had the mac & cheese and was quite satisfied, but she’s
not very demanding.
In all our dinner at Sharis was fine. I wouldn’t go there if there was
an Elmer’s around, but I’d definitely prefer it to a Denny’s or Applebees.
