The Flying Artichoke is a delightful surprise tucked away in the Salinas Municipal Airport. I stopped in for a quick lunch and was pleasantly greeted by the friendly staff. The French Dip Sandwich was outstanding - easily the best I've had recently! The cozy atmosphere, complete with views of the runways, made my meal even more enjoyable.

Though the deep fried artichoke hearts were a bit overdone, the quick service and overall vibe more than made up for it. I’ll definitely return to explore more of the menu! ✈️
