    Incredible Thanksgiving day meal at founding farmers. I just returned to the states after 3 months in Europe and find the prices here a little higher than I was expecting. But I haven’t had food this good in a very long time. I made a reservation and was able to be seated 10 minutes early. As busy as the restaurant got, the service was prompt and friendly, the noise level was low, particularly surprising considering the number of people in the large dining space. My friend and I had mimosas along with the meal, and they were excellent as well. Plan to go back tomorrow and order something from the bar.

    Had a reservation and got seated quickly, Aalthough short staffed, the waitress took care of us quickly making sure we got water immediately and getting our food order a few minutes later. Advised that some of the fried chicken would take time but these arrived a bit sooner and all was good. Would definitely visit this location again. The food was good for the price point.

    Food was great, however, they changed their menu significantly and took off all the meat dishes (Iskender kebab and others). Now they only have kebabs with ground beef and chicken (no more cut meat)

    This place was cute. We did the weekend brunch buffet and followed with the spirits tour and tasting. Brunch was just ok, nothing spectacular. The tour was fun and informative, I would recommend it. Our guide was friendly and very knowledgeable!
