“Great beef and cheddar croissant!!! The beef is super flavorful without being overwhelming!!!“

“Clean, staff was friendly and helpful“

“Chef Abdul and his family run an amazing business! You can really taste the love and passion they put into every dish. The food is always fresh, full of flavor, and served with a smile. It’s more than just a meal, it feels like you’re part of their family. Highly recommend supporting this wonderful family business.“

“Limited menu done right. Portions are small but prepared with care. Always consistent. Shy away from the calamari friti. I’ve had it a few times and hoped it would get better . Barely any shrimp the “ piece. Contained are small and few as is the actual squid. Loaded with veggies instead. Not a value or good choice! The twin medallions of beef are delicious but not substantial. The white fish is the best dish on the mine!“

“Run do not walk to this place!! Best scones ever especially the lemon zest!! The foggy London tea was sublime. The customer service from the owner is top notch. Energy at this place is so loving and filled with care. You can tell when food and drink are made and served with love. In the heart of downtown Winfield…will be back again and again!“

“Stumbled upon this place randomly, and are so glad to have done so! The restaurant is cozy and inviting, the staff is so friendly, and of course, the food is spot on. We ordered the potstickers, bao buns, and beef curry and they were all hits!! Will be coming back.“

“This is my number 1 go-to spot and my favorite restaurant of all time. I've been going to this location since they opened their doors and every time I walk in I feel extremely welcomed and excited to see the great additions they make. The staff are some of the most kind and wonderful people I've ever met, super kind with a wonderful smile, they make every vist feel amazing. The atmosphere is beautiful, since the beginning they've been adding new details to fit the aesthetic and improving the overall quality. The food is amazing, it taste great with super fresh ingredients; it makes any tummy feel good. They are able to craft your meal however you need it be and they serve fast and hot! They have a wide variety or appetizers and main dishes that all taste great. I absolutely love this place and very thankful we have this restaurant in our community! Cannot wait till my next vist!“

“Bought my own birthday French Silk Pie last weekend. OMG! Best gf crust I have had! thank you!“

“The steamed BBQ pork buns are a must! Beyond delicious. I also am a huge fan of the gluten-free thin rice noddles that I substitute in my main dish typically! The spicy ramen broth is delicious (my husbands go-to). If you are in a rush, this might not be the place for you. A true mom and pap shop, perfecting every dish before serving. For my husband and I, it’s well worth the wait for the authentic divine flavors. Great portion sizes as well!“

“Great Vegan menu! The margaritas are wonderful“

“Just had eggs and house potatoes so I can't opine on the food overall except to say the potatoes were so hard and dry I didn't even finish, and potatoes in their various forms are usually my favorite part of breakfast.
Ambiance and service were good, though I wish the server had mentioned that you pay up front. Took us awhile to figure out he wasn't coming back to take our card“

“Just discovered this amazing European Cafe/Bakery. I ordered a "J" cake in pink for my daughter-in-law and it was out of this world! Very light, whipped cream frosting, decorated just beautifully! I'll be ordering one next for my birthday in March :)“

“the best. tacos are phenomenal“

“We went to Woodfire for my birthday. The food and service is excellent. Vicki was our server and she was very friendly and attentive. The food is so fresh and homemade. The pizza crust is crisp on the outside and chewy on the inside. There is an assortment of types of pizza, but the cheese pizza is the best I’ve ever had. The pasta is rich and delicious. It’s cooked perfectly and the vodka sauce is amazing. The appetizers, home brewed beer, and desserts are phenomenal too. Step aside Coopers Hawk, I have a new favorite restaurant!“

My son has special needs and they were so great with him. At the end of the dinner when they could see I was struggling a bit with my son, one server came to me and said, “don’t worry mama, we got you.” So kind.

“Marvelous play to come and play. On weekends, live entertainment, with lots of great bands, doing many oldies and nostalgic songs! Great food for reasonable prices, fantastic staff and customer service, and the music is what I come for. I am 70 and find people my age and older, tearing up the rug. Yeah, lots of fun, and comaraderie with those of us senior citizens, that don't act like it, and will enjoy ourselves as much as the band allows. You won't be disappointed with the atmosphere, the music, the customer service, or anything really! Cmon down and see for yourself!“

“Truly amazing food with excellent service. What a great find..“

“Great food. But this place is so over the top pretentious that it’s irritating. The staff and customers alike are just so infatuated by themselves it’s off putting.“
