Home-Cooked Favorites
The menu is full of classic American cuisine that is made by hand every day here at The Ridge Inn restaurant. One of the easiest yet tastiest meals to grab is a sandwich. Choose from local favorites such as the cheesesteak, BLT, Cusabi Chicken Salad, or the homemade turkey burger. Each ingredient on these tasty sandwiches is always fresh. Speaking of burgers, you can order a 1/3-pound certified angus beef burger with a variety of toppings. You can cook your burger to order so it is served just the way you like it. Vegetarians can order the Spicy Black Bean Burger that is just as juicy and features a unique blend of herbs and spices. Some more unique items on the sandwich menu includes the Jo’s Cheese Steak that features sautéed mushrooms and onions that are then covered in provolone and American cheeses. The Fish Filet Sandwich uses breaded grouper filets along with fresh tartar sauce. You can choose a side for any sandwich or burger such as sweet potato fries or onion tanglers. A variety of wraps, soups, and salads are perfect lighter options that do not skimp on the flavor. Quesadillas come filled with gooey cheese and your choice of protein. Try the chicken quesadilla that is pan fried or go with the veggie quesadilla for a delicious mix of seasonal veggies. What really sets The Ridge Inn apart from the competition is their selection of unique entrees. House entrees include family favorites such as homemade meatloaf, spaghetti, herb grilled chicken, and fish and chips. Yum! Each entrée comes with a salad and corn bread making you feel like you are dining at home with mom and dad.
Morning Breakfast
You can also enjoy breakfast daily at The Ridge Inn until 11:00 AM. Choose from tasty options such as biscuits and gravy, croissant French toast, or the breakfast sandwich. The croissant French toast is a local favorite with a flaky croissant that is dipped in cinnamon egg batter and griddled to perfection; a side of breakfast meat also comes with it. Or grab the short stack of golden sweet cream pancakes are a decadent treat. Mexican food has never tasted as good as it does with the Border Breakfast featuring pork sausage, mushrooms, peppers, onions, tomatoes, and spicy jalapenos. You can order any item a la carte to mix and match. Jo’s Famous Donuts are served every weekend and are a sweet treat like no other. These homemade donuts have become legendary in the community now and will melt in your mouth. You can order just one (we dare you to try) or make the easy decision and grab a quick dozen. These famous donuts go quick so make sure to stop by early in the morning; once they are sold out for the day, you will be out of luck until the following weekend.
