When the bartender is hosing out his shaker instead of acknowledging your presence, it's time to find a better place. I'm sure his buddies that came in after us got good service though.

This was the best meal in a long time. Try the Carmel French toast or Philly Benedict. The breakfast potatoes are out of this world. Relaxing atmosphere, good service!

Chicken shawarma was great. Beet salad was good. Service was lacking, had to track down our server for another drink - she was reading a book at the front. She should take lessons from Cody at Nicks on state restaurant.

Your website says late night menu is open from 10:30 - close, yet when we show up prior to 10:30, you’re no longer serving food and we were told drinks only. Disappointing as we were extremely looking forward to trying the last night menus. Atmosphere looked as though it would be enjoyable.
Nothing frustrate me more than websites saying one thing yet not following through.

Not sure if I'll be back to this place. It wasn't horrible but the vibe was off and the food was nothing to write home about.

Stopped in for a quick bite. The food was outstanding. We had a couple of appetizers, the Shawarma Tacos and queso dip, which the kids loved. Mac and cheese, beat salad, and BLTA were really good. You can tell they source locally because it was so fresh.

It was a smaller location than I expected, at the end of the bar an unsightly part of the kitchen is exposed which is off putting to see from a couple of tables. Why they have a booth by the toilets separated from the rest of the setting area is baffling. Ambiance ?The location doesn't work for the owners idea which is GOOD and on point. HOWEVER the food was EXCELLENT. Tomato bisque soup and grilled cheese sandwich?, beet salad and freshly grilled Salmon ? vegetable primavera, all fresh. ?
The service was great which is all they really had doing for them. Our server had only been there a week so part of it might have been that. There were apps that were never brought to the table. Everyone's entrees arrived at all different times. Steak was overcooked. Fries on the steak frites tasted stale and like the oil they were cooked in. Honestly none of the food or the drinks were very good. They were definitely trying but missing.
Very good atmosphere
