    Always have great experiences at this restaurant. Food is always good, service is great. I came for brunch as I usually do. Be sure to get the lemon ricotta pancakes for the table to share with your friends! They’re intentionally soft inside, they’re not undercooked, I promise. Pastry case looked better than it ever has, and the coffee bar was great!

    The waitress was not equipped to handle a busy Friday night, unable to fulfill the smallest of request s such as maintaining a water pitcher , birthday request made at beginning of dinner (we supplied cake just needed her to take it to the back to bring out with a candle ) 2 hrs later cake was never picked up, water all around was empty and we were then late for our show because even the bill was a task she was unable to handle. The food sounded great but was not just bland but chicken was very dry overcooked , so disappointed , birthday dinner was a complete fail.

    Two for an early dinner, ended up with some happy hour special and then superior parm crusted chicken. Attentive server, Matt, kept up with us even when the crowd was picked up. Not our first time, Not our last time.

    My new favorite place for breakfast. Today I tried the Shakshouka - delicious melted feta in tomato sauce topped with two poached eggs and accompanied with pita bread triangles. My friend had Belgian waffles. These dishes paired with delicious coffee drinks in a cozy environment with good service makes the repeat list in my book. Also, ample metered street parking. I'm going back next week.
