Went for breakfast the food was okay, the server didnt seem happy we were there at the beginning but, seemed a better after we started eating. At first we didn't think we would be back because of the server but, changed our minds and would go again if in the area.

Update 12/2: I submitted feedback via the link below and no response - really its a shame

I have been trying to contact the restaurant to speak with the manager but every time I call they have stepped away, perhaps this review will encourage them to reach out to me.

We had our daughters confirmation here on Saturday (11/22). We have had this reservation booked for several weeks as we were expecting 19 guests. We show up a few minutes before our reservation to find out that out tables are not set up. Once seated, we order some apps but we had no plates or cultery. It took a while for the waitress to take our main order (there were some errors with the orders too), she advised that she was delaying the order because the kitchen ran out of plates and cultery!

Honestly the waitress did as best as she could, but it is really disappointing that they were not set up to support our reservation. How is it acceptable to run out of plates and cutlery. Likely our first and last time here.

Everything I've had here is amazing. The food is fresh and delicious. They are fairly priced. Highly recommend the flat breads, the steak, burgers and wings. Thank you to the servers for taking good care of us!!

A great place to relax and grab a bite to eat and drinks. The atmosphere is casual with class. The food is delicious and service has always been outstanding. Some items on the pricey side, but they have solid promotions making everything fairly reasonable.

Long wait, lukewarm food, and indifferent service. My dish arrive cold, coffee was burnt and the manager was dismissed instead of helpful. Won’t come back again.

Wonderful place!
The food was delicious and the service was excellent. I asked for vegan dishes, and the staff made every effort to accommodate my request. I came on Sunday morning and ordered the tomato and bean soup, Mediterranean salad, and gluten-free bread — everything arrived quickly and tasted great.
A special thanks to Ella, who made the experience especially enjoyable!
