I want so badly to like arts because it's a convenient neighborhood spot, but the service is so painfully bad. We have given it so many tries and it's just not an enjoyable experience. We were seated outside today and had to walk in to flag someone to take our order and then also had to go inside to find someone to pay our check. We noticed the two tables next to us also had the same experiences. The meatballs are good, and we would come out of convenience if they could just get it together on the service and just be decent.

Charming outdoors dining scene. Very mediocre food—wouldn’t recommend anything we had. Salads would probably be safest.Parking: Street parking — difficult to find.

Food here is delicious. On the pricier side, being on Montana. The sliders are delicious. They also have HH Monday thru Friday 3-6. Small seating area inside and outdoor seating available as well. Service is not that great and not very attentive.

Lied about not having ketchup. I know they have it but the server was being rude and lied to my face

OMG!! Everything we had was deliciously good! This was my first time visiting with friends for dinner and this place did not disappoint. Service was great and the ambiance in the building was very nice. The salad I had was plentiful and had enough left over to take home. If you do anything, be SURE to get their Brussels sprouts! You will not regret it!

I was out visiting one of my daughters in Santa Monica, and she highly recommended this restaurant for her parents to have lunch with her. It was a Sunday afternoon for lunch, beautiful day, and the restaurant had no one sitting inside, and everyone sitting outside which they have a large seating area for outside dining. I was directed by one of the two female waitresses to find a place to sit. The restaurant is dog friendly, and we had three Yorkshire terriers in our party. After sitting down, it took about 15 minutes before we got the attention of our waitress to bring us water and menus. 20 minutes later, I had to get up and request our waitress to take our order. Once our order was placed, our food came out within 15 minutes. Sides that were requested were forgotten like mayonnaise on the side for the burger. That required me to go up and collect it myself from one of the chefs in the kitchen. The food was fabulous! The service was so bad I would never return with the same waitresses. I would've loved to give this restaurant five stars but the service was deplorable. I hope the management sees this review and responds appropriately!

Stopped by and waited for 20 minutes after water and menus were dropped off and no one ever took our order or checked on us so we left. ?

Very welcoming staff and good service. Nice cozy ambiance. Had a great burger and the curly fries were really good.
I kind of feel bad writing this review but I can honestly say the service at this place is the worst! We had dinner here tonight, and our server did not care one iota about her job. We started off with a glass of wine which was about a 2 ounce glass. I've never seen such a small glass of wine. Three of us ordered the onion soup we were expecting the soup to come out before our meal, but that was not the case. We waited and waited and finally they served the soup with our meal. We asked to take the main courses back so that we could enjoy our soup and our server had an attitude about that. The soup was OK little watery and not enough cheese at all. The soup was also lukewarm, but we never saw our server again to tell her. Finally, they served the food to us and everything was cold because they took it back and obviously didn't warm it. We finally flagged down our server and told her that everything was cold and she walked away from the table with no response. It was very rude and all of us were disappointed. I had the burger which was actually a pretty good burger except that it was cold. We also had the steak salad, which was OK, the salmon was very dry and the short rib pasta was fair. Needless to say, we will not be returning here.

They were my go-to for HH, but the new manager just fucked that up. A new menu with smaller portions and the same ridiculously high prices. HH menu is a joke and no value at all. Used to Love this place and it's gone to shit...new manager in unfriendly to boot, you just lost a local.

Super disappointed. Had a company lunch there today. Ordered the eggs Benedict. NO hollandaise sauce, mini egg cooked hard, served on bread, not an English Muffin, with bacon, not Canadian bacon. Burnt potatoes. A super small serving, even for benedict. Beer listed on menu no longer available. Waiter said menu not current. What?$31 for short rib pasta with maybe 1/4 cup of meat and a cup of pasta. Ridiculously overpriced. Every dish was lackluster. The calamari was a mini size, all breading, no flavor. The chicken bits were greasy and flavorless. The place was also empty at 12:30pm. Not likely to last long with experiences like ours. Won't ever be back.

This place is a neighborhood gem. They have the best "giant" Greek corn salad! The dressing is most delicious! The chicken pesto sandwich is so tasty. If you go from 4pm to 6pm you can catch their happy hour menu. The calamari , Brussels sprouts, & chicken bites are yummy at $9 each. The staff are super friendly and the bathroom is immaculate.
