Tongue in Cheek American Restaurant ·$$

Tongue In Cheek, located on Payne Avenue, serves delicious American meals. It is a locally owned and operated establishment by husband and wife duo Leonard Anderson and Ashleigh Newman, along with their business partner Ryan Huseby. The menu is extensive and brims with variety and novelty. If the menu's diverse nature has caused a dilemma, confidently go for the 'I Say Tomato', Grass Fed Beef Tartare, Pasture Pork Belly, Farmers Market Omelette or the Mascarpone Cheesecake. The alcohol menu is definitely worth exploring and includes a wide collection of wines, bottled beers, and tempting cocktails.
