Grits tasted like grease. Eclectic playlist was not the right vibe at all. Chicken sandwich was decent. Tomato soup was great. After two visits, service was awesome but not enough to bring us back.

I arrived less than 30 minutes before lunch closing on a Saturday, I received the top notch service (without rush) and had a very tasty lunch.

Vegetarian options: There are many vegan and vegetarian options. They also offer seasonal menu changes.

Parking: Several parking options

We've been here a few times over the years. Consistency with quality and service. Shrimp and scallop burger with fries is my #1 go-to. The blended Brussels burger is good too. Busy place and they do not take reservations. The rectangle plates are a little tricky because the food spills over, some waste unfortunately.
