The food is so good, it's worth it to stop by. Love the gazpacho. I usually come during lunchtime and have always had a great experience but I went in tonight for dinner for the first time, it was the most unnecessarily rude service I've ever experienced in my life/20 years in hospitality. Bar manager seems really unhappy, which seemed to make it unpleasant for everyone within earshot- guests and co-workers.
Friendly and helpful servers, delicious food and a super cool interior.
Amazing vibes, fantastic service and great food. Rye (sp?) was very sweet and the pastrami sandwich absolutely hit the spot.

Customers have praised the cleanliness and the tasty meals, especially the Empire Sunday dessert, which was described as exceptionally decadent. The staff is attentive and welcoming, ensuring quick service. However, some guests noted that they were charged extra for refills on small cups, which they felt was a bit pricey and somewhat sneaky.
