First order: I was really excited. The portions felt on par with what I would expect for the cost, and most importantly, the meals seemed fresh. The flavors were really good and packaged well. As someone who hates leftovers, I really enjoyed my first order. I would have given 4/5 stars.

My second order this week, not so much. (Maybe I ordered the wrong things this week). The breakfast portions were small (I was still hungry afterward), and the quality didn’t feel the same as the week before. The scrambled eggs with asparagus turned the eggs slimy and brown—not the most appealing. Dinners during the second week were decent but included fillers, like what appeared to be canned green beans. More roasted broccoli would have felt better, in my opinion.

So it depends on the week, I guess. I already ordered for next week, so we’ll see. I’ll update my review if the quality improves. I would order again for convenience (I’m currently postpartum, so having premade meals is super helpful!), but for this price point, I would expect the quality to stay consistent or improve.

We’ve been here many times, but this visit was extremely disappointing. We waited over 40 minutes for four burgers, and at 30 minutes were told the delay was because several to-go orders came in. It was obvious takeout was prioritized over guests dining in. When the food finally arrived, everything was barely warm. Cold patties, cold fries. Our waiter was apathetic, and the waitress was defensive and rude. She offered a discount, but we weren’t looking for money off—we just wanted hot food. After we asked them to simply do better, we heard her yell “DO BETTER” toward the kitchen, which was incredibly unprofessional. We don’t believe the kitchen was at fault. Our waiter sat at the bar doing nothing for long stretches, and no one took accountability for the experience. We had out-of-town family with us and had talked up the burgers, which made it even more disappointing. We paid $135 for a cold meal and poor service. Unfortunately, we won’t be returning. Bad form, guys. Bad form.

As someone who grew up enjoying authentic Indian flavours at home, I was pleasantly surprised by this restaurant. The food carries a real essence of India. The spices are well balanced and the curries taste rich without being overwhelming.

If you choose the plant based selection be prepared for canned and poor quality vegetables. This week's Scezhuan style chik'n (plant based) and jasmine rice came with no chik'n. I specifically ordered this dinner b/c if not I receive 6 dinners of tofu slabs. Not recommended

Has hold free tournament on Fridays and karaoke. Good food and drinks

A very drab, non-energetic place that definitely doesn't feel welcoming at all in terms of hospitality and service!

I always enjoy dropping in and grabbing a bite and a drink. It's an inviting atmosphere, great food, and Gina, Grace, and the other staff are on top of taking care of your needs. Drop in and say, Hello! Spread the word.

They must have hired a new cook.Cause the food was very poor this time. I ordered breakfast. 2 eggs special eggs were supposed to be overhard Came over easy . hashBrowns were greasy and undercooked. Toast was burnt. The ham steak was 4 slices of ham.

I have been a here about 5 times. The service is slow, orders wrong or they don't come out at all. The prices are way too high and the quality of the food is subpar and the drinks are way over priced and terrible. I definitely won't be back with family or with a group of friends. Even with a week or notice to let them know we'd have a bigger party, they on more than 1 occasion, they were not prepared. As much as I'd like to support local businesses, this one needs a lot of a work.

Horrible food that cant even be bothered to be made correct.
Servers forget food and just mix up reciepts so you're paying for food you didnt even order.

Some pretty great bar food. Try the chips and dip and black bean nachos.

I went there because I thought it was a restaurant, and the person (owner? Manager? Not sure) was sooo kind. What a wonderful human being. He made my day with his kindness and generosity and will definitely suggest using them to friends and my company (if they do events). I hope this kind soul sees it—if so, thank you so much 🙏🏾 also the salad is delicious and so fresh!
