Arrived at 345 pm ordered my lunch and I received my food approximately 10 minutes later. It has been 45 minutes and I had to go up to the register and wave for the crew in the kitchen to get my server's attention. I asked for a to go box and she brought it out and went back to the kitchen for social hour. I am so disappointed in the service I am receiving as I sit in this establishment and write this review. They are in the kitchen still laughing and giggling loud. Another customer just had to summoned for his ticket. I am unsure about the quality of service but this is not normal and unprofessional customer service.
Really good food and a great price!
Delicious chicken salad on raisin bread sandwich!

This place is an excellent restaurant, especially for sandwiches. My personal favorite is the Turkey Panini. The servers are always very attentive and the atmosphere is incredibly cozy. I always feel welcomed and comfortable when I dine-in at this restaurant.

Great prices on food and drinks, menu unlike anything else around- many vegetarian options and charcuterie as well as local beers and wine.

Cute little place with friendly staff. The salad I had was pretty good but the coffee wasn't. I'll go back again to try other menu items but I probably won't be ordering coffee there again.

I had gone here multiple times with great experiences every time. Tonight, I went in with looking to relax and unwind from work with my book, charcuterie, and wine. Clearly, their employees don’t know how well sound travels in the restaurant, or maybe they just thought I was out of ear shot. Unfortunately, I heard two employees talking loudly about how stupid it is to come to a restaurant to just order a wine sampler and meat/cheese boards (I ordered 2 from the happy hour menu), and how it’s “like coming to a restaurant and ordering a bowl of Cheetos, it’s so dumb”. This continued on for several minutes, and if I could hear loud and clear, I am sure the others in the restaurant could too. I paid and left right away. Upon calling to inform a manager for future customers, I was immediately cut off and could not even tell her what they had said, and was told I should have said something when I was there. I was honestly in complete shock. Needless to say I will not be going back.

Gave this place a second chance. Underwhelmed again. The grilled cheese was terrible. They also gave me a piece of bread with no butter or anything and stale tortilla chips. Blandest meal ever. Hospital food.
I've had a great time the two other times I came here. Today, I came here at 7:20 (40 minutes before they closed) for a sandwich and a beer. A guy that I've never seen greeted us with "we close at 8. Dining in? Take a seat." We ordered a beer, then we never had a server come by again. We were studiously ignored (all eye contact avoided. If they accidentally glanced at our table, they fully turned away from us). We tried to get our server's attention for 25 minutes before we gave up and went to pay for our beer. When we went to pay, we asked the man who greeted us what time the kitchen closed (because we hadnt had this kind of experience before), and he said "we usually stop serving hot food at 7:30, especially if we've had a hard day."I get the frustrations of food service, but that was no reason to actively ignore us until we left. We would have been satisfied with them telling us the kitchen was closed/closing. The whole experience was a real shame.I don't know if I'll go back, but I'll post an update if I do, and my experience changes.UPDATE: we went across the street to Farelli's, and apparently, the employee is a known problem. The bartender saw us come from across the street and asked why we left, then said, "Was it the tall guy with the dark, curly hair?" He's got a reputation for sending business towards Farelli's!

The customer service is top tier when entering or leaving someone makes it their responsibility to speak.The atmosphere is soothing and always welcoming.One key component, you receive a glass of ice cold water and don't forget to ask for a straw ?
