I love their bright, modern-minimalist interior! They have comfy chairs and booths with a nice assortment of plants for decor. I enjoyed a wonderful lunch here (highly recommend the chipotle chicken Gouda panini—so delicious!!). I appreciate how this bistro is very affordable, especially compared to other places, while maintaining superior quality of food. Honestly one of the better paninis I’ve had, and at a much cheaper price! Service with a smile here; the staff are so friendly.

They have very recently increased their prices on some items by more than 10%....unexpectedly of course and way above the inflation rate increase. I don t think the prices are fair anymore.

I got the quinoa bowl and it was good. Just the right amount of spice and very fresh toppings. Also got a berry savory spinach salad and it was very good. Dressing was spot on flavor. Would definitely come back and recommend. Multiple seating options. Some comfy and chill. Also some tables and chairs. Great to go place if you near by.

Had the Chipotle Chicken Ranch Gouda Panini. It was probably the best sandwich I’ve ever had. Everything was perfect from the flavor, the moist chicken, the chewy bread. It was absolutely delicious! You must go!

Go inside lobby of 501 Office building. If you don’t know that this cafe is inside the back of the lobby of the office building at 501 Broadway, you’ll never find this place. There’s no sign outside for the bistro.I had the chicken salad sandwich. It was delicious.For us wannabe coffee snobs... The double espresso was bitter; perhaps because it was a little larger than I expected and using more water to provide a larger portion risks making a bitter espresso due to over extraction. The pastries looked delicious.Shop is cute, clean and comfy.

Very nice counter service lunch spot in the Koll building downtown. The turkey with pesto aioli on ciabatta was delicious. The food is fresh, portions are large, and the toasted ciabatta is incredible. It makes the sandwich. The fruit infused water is a nice touch. The restaurant serves sandwiches, wraps and salads. The atmosphere is bright, clean and efficient.

So good! I got the Mediterranean Chicken Pesto with a side of chipotle sauce and a side salad. Everything was fresh and delicious! The chipotle sauce may have been the best I’ve ever had. Pesto and chipotle may not be the combo for everyone but it was great in my opinion. The dressing for salad was also amazing! The ciabatta bread was really tasty - perfect amount of crisp exterior and soft interior. Everything was so good, I decided I had to go back and get dessert. I got a lemon bar for dessert and it did not disappoint. The lemon flavor was spectacular.On top of everything, the service was outstanding. The man who helped me was friendly to everyone who walked in, including myself. Prices were also very reasonable and they have a variety of options to choose from.I also appreciate the eco-conscious serve ware and takeout containers they had. It’s a little thing for us, but huge for the Earth and I think that means a lot.
