    The food was fantastic! We tried a little bit of everything; smoothie, hot chai, black coffee, tuna melt, chopped salad, chicken tortilla soup, and carrot cake. Everything was done perfectly and so tasty! Sadly, our server was not happy and not attentive. Hopefully she will find another career.

    The food was good, large portions but nice presentation. Their website mentions being able to make accommodations for food allergies, but their options were limited. Beware that Vegan does not mean non-dairy, but vegetarian. It was busy and noisy and the service was slow.

    Sitting off to the left beyond the bakery/coffee counter is the best location for moderate noise level! Love this corner! The two of us split the Alaskan Benedict with a side of bacon (gotta love bacon!) and a white chocolate raspberry muffin. Perfect amount of food for the two of us. Husband had hot tea and I had an Americano. Great “brunch” at noon!

    Our server was friendly and helpful with menu choices. We all loved out meals and the drink selection was great and reasonably priced. Popovers are absolutely delicious and the pistachio butter sublime! We go here often and will keep coming back!

    Tamara did an excellent job of serving the four of us and all the staff members were efficient, effective, and gracious. It was a fine dining experience.
