   Lots of rules and added and surprise costs for not that great food. We took a work lunch group during restaurant week and were told that no one could order off the main menu if any of us wanted the $30 restaurant week menu. Some were disappointed because they had wanted a different lunch item but they went along with the group. Most of us ordered the chicken which was dry but glaze was good. The pasta portion was laughable. Cookie was delicious. When bill came, waitress wouldn’t split it which was understandable because there were 7 of us. The bill she brought included the tip and tax and came out to $39 pp. I paid and everyone zelled me their portion. Then I got an alert from my bank that was about $15 more and when I asked about it the server told me it was a 3% processing fee and showed me some super small print on the receipt (not on the bill). Since everyone had already zelled me for their $39 lunch I got stuck paying $56 for a crappy lunch. We all felt nickled and dimed from the moment we got there and then I got left paying way too much for mediocre food. We wont be going back.

   Went here for happy hour but the menu was very different from what they had online and had much higher prices. Not really any value as far as I'm seeing for the food

   Order was delayed by 45 mins- tbf it was middle of holiday season but still Food was not great, especially for downtown value. Burger was dry, crispy, & overcooked. Popcorn Chicken app was TINY & dry. Was out of the other apps I wanted. Out of the steak that we wanted. Everyone else told me their order was also mid. There’s also a 3% credit card surcharge by the way. The only good was in the end they comped the apps since it took 45 minutes to come out.

   My only complain is that menu has only one vegetarian main dish which is a Veggie wrap and it didn't taste good. It was over stuffed with spinach. I wish they offered veggie burger, pasta or made substitutes to meat dishes.

   Hello! Sorry to hear you were dissatisfied with the amount of vegetarian main options we are offering this season. We of course have a variety of salads that are vegetarian friendly but only the one main dish. We will be revamping the menu for the spring/summer season and I will mention your feedback to our chef and see what we can do to bring more vegetarian options for the future. Thanks!

   Excellent food! Squash soup was outstanding! Almaz was a wonderful server. Explained everything we asked and made our lunch enjoyable. Definitely going back!

   We had a late lunch during restaurant week. My companion had the steak and I had the vegetarian wrap. We both started with the beet salad. Everything was delicious. Dessert was either a cookie or a scoop of banana pudding gelato. Highly recommend the gelato. It was a good value for restaurant week and the location in the financial district is convenient.

    The food was amazing overall. No one in the group said anything bad. The time between courses was a little slow. Overall great experience
