Our experience was fantastic. We excellent service and the food exceeded our expectations! Highly recommend the arancini, risotto, and chicken and waffles. My son had the kid pasta and loved that was well. After eating solid portions, we could not resist the dessert menu. Banana bread pudding serving with mango sorbet was a delightful end to a wonderful meal. The kids enjoyed the gelato, which come with 3 small but solid scoops. Overall would highly recommend stopping at this quaint spot!

I have been here multiple times before. My spouse likes their chocolate lava (hot and iced). Their loco moco is huge. I try to eat something new every time I visit. Gluten free foodie married to a creature of habit. The menu is familiar yet varied enough to satisfy both of us. For this day we originally had a large group (10+) reserved. I received a personal phone call asking if we would prefer to be seated in the private room. When I explained that half of our party had just canceled they said we could still use the private room if we preferred. We chose to sit at a regular table and had a great time. One of the main reasons we chose this restaurant is that our party had some guests with dietary preferences and restrictions. There is a plant based menu and the other side has the gluten free menu options. And yes, if you are vegan with gluten issues there will be food for you too. All of the food was delicious. I heard rave reviews about the ulu. The açaí bowl was demolished. Only two people had leftovers that they packaged up to go. I like the shrimp baguette on a gluten free over the burger (or at least I was craving the shrimp over beef that day). The burger was still filling and tasty.

Eleven is always a delight! We brought visitors from out of town here last night for two cocktails and it was the perfect place to enjoy the drinks and catch up in a relaxed atmosphere.
