    Service solid, kind, and quick! Loved that. Also enjoyed the tacos, vodka penne, and thank you for keeping the black bean burger. It’s so flavorful. However, although the food is generally solid, the choices of veggie sides now just being incredible bitter broccolini or spinach just isn’t great. Im a huge veggie lover, but I left the whole side of broccolini on the plate. Broccoli alone or bringing back the roasted veggies would be a welcome add. Also, the kids Mac and cheese being elevated from Kraft would be appropriate. Or at least make that a side kids can order. Most restaurants make their own in house and it’s appreciated/noticed.

    Pre-theater dinner. We were quickly seated and our server arrived promptly and cheerfully. Two of us had familiar favorites which did not disappoint, two had new to us combinations involving scallops and shrimp. Both were richly flavored and enjoyable.

    This was basically a nice experience . It was basically empty when we got there but soon became extremely busy and loud so not as relaxing as we had hoped:) Don’t like that they automatically add 20 % tip to bill and then think you should give more??? For just 2 people!! Large group yes but 2? We are usually good tippers so if they had given us the chance the waitress probably would have gotten a bigger tip but adding right away as you bring the bill … NO Thank you!! Doubt we will return even though the cinnamon rolls were amazing !!

    Such a cute little restaurant. Lots of character. Food was great, very fresh and the presentation was spot on. If you can't make up your mind, go for the Salmon or Grilled Cheese and Coleslaw. Very unusual menu items, especially the large number of natural teas. We were upstairs with a group, and the ambience was very eclectic. First place I've been to in awhile where I could hear the people across the table from me, and not just the person sitting next to me. We will definitely be going again.
