We sat outside, the hostess seemed annoyed to have to seat us, which is the first person and impression you get… the waiter was friendly, his attention span was a little off. People working here don’t seem happy. The food was ok, and it’s expensive for no reason.

Incredible, fresh, flavorful food with a great selection of vegan, vegetarian and other items.
They keep changing the menu with seasonal ingredients.

Great quality, well presented food in an upscale, but unassuming environment. Perfect for lunch with friends, colleagues, or a date night!
As a vegan, the variety of dishes to choose from was a relative rarity and greatly appreciated! I had the sweet potato and bean chilli which was really tasty, well balanced, gorgeously presented, hearty - the perfect dish for autumn. The plant based dishes were so well designed that my colleagues, both of whom eat meat, opted for vegan meals too!
The farm to table concept is fabulous and the quality of ingredients is noticeable on the first bite. Each staff member we had the pleasure of interacting with was lovely, and the service was excellent throughout.
Thank you Agricola team!

Apart from being in the green environment of Princeton University, this particular eatery came highly recommended by family.
Meeting friends after decades is a lovely experience and the conversation flowed easily as we sped past years to arrive at the present.
There's a completely different feeling to catching up through a conversation rather than posts and messages on social media. Which may be completely alien to young people today.
On a working weekday, we found a table easily, though the place is apparently packed on weekends.
We started off with some natural organic drinks and the flavours were fresh and bracing.
The hummus also was quite a departure from the norm. And the pita bread held its own.
The plating was done with care and while the taste was quite different from what we are typically used to, there was no doubt about the standard being maintained.
The service is unobtrusive and pleasant.
Perhaps we could have waxed eloquent about the food if that was the focus. But it was the conversation which created the atmosphere.
As opposed to guests who may have a specific dish in mind and the conversation settles on politics, or films or travel.
But the furniture and the decor had that wonderful old world feel and even if that doesn't satiate the appetite, it creates a beautiful setting

After trying several restaurants in Princeton, I happily discovered a new favorite. The Crispy Rhode Island Calamari, paired with basil aioli, and the Margherita Flatbread made for a perfect start to the meal. The Seared Barnegat Bay Scallops I chose for my entrée were cooked to perfection—compliments to the chef! Charlee, my waitress, was friendly and attentive, and her cocktail recommendation was spot on. The staff’s hospitality made the entire experience truly enjoyable. I’m already looking forward to my next visit and highly recommend making a reservation

A very good dinner place close to Princeton University. I imagine it is great for lunch too. Good wine selection and plenty of diversity on the menu. Servers are knowledgeable but service can be slow.

Excellent food and service. We tried the roasted pork, branzino, and halibut—each highly recommended. You can tell the ingredients are of the highest quality.

Food is just mediocre. Service is better than food. A little slow. Overpriced given this is Princeton…

I love the vibe and the taste of food is so natural and organic. The portions of food was perfect and everything felt so lite on the stomach. I will come back to this place any day

Food was excellent, especially the flatbreads, and the service was gracious as well. The courses took time to come out but that’s understandable considering it was Saturday brunch. For drinks the iced teas seemed to lack flavor but the cocktails were excellent. Overall I definitely recommend.

The vegan dishes on the menu were divine. The mushroom pate, the corn ravioli And the black bean and sweet potato chilli believe their names, they were subtle and brilliant on the palette. Brilliant choices of seasonings. Delightful. Lighting and climate control could do with adjusting- the sound carries and you feel as if you are sitting on your neighbour’s laps due to the poor sound control and surfaces. Great food, though!

The food was the highlight of the evening, deserving a solid 4 stars. The flavors were well-balanced, and the dishes were beautifully presented, making the meal enjoyable. However, the service was a bit lacking, which is why I’m giving it 3 stars. While the staff was friendly, there were some delays in getting our orders and refills, which took away from the overall experience. The atmosphere also fell a bit short for me, earning another 3 stars. The décor and ambiance were fine, but it lacked the warmth or uniqueness that would make the place truly stand out. In conclusion, the food is definitely worth trying, but there’s room for improvement in the service and atmosphere.

In a word, excellent. The scallops entree was amazing, and tablemates enjoyed the short rib.
Great drinks, excellent service. Definitely will return to try other options. Also...the peanut butter cup is a great send-off.
