    Server was personable and attentive. Great selection of food and drinks. Casual friendly atmosphere. Whimsically named cocktails are a hoot! Prices much more affordable than other restaurants in the area. Easy to get a reservation.

    Smash burger was super thick so it was really just a well done patty and not a real smash burger.

    We had a reservation and experienced a great dinner. They were busy but our food was amazing. We went a couple nights later to pick up food to go but the service at the counter was very slow, in fact the woman at the cash register was talking with another woman picking up food for like 10 minutes and didn’t even acknowledge me waiting. When they were done chatting, the woman at the cash register left, leaving me to get help from someone else. This was so bizarre, I love this market and restaurant but felt very unwelcome.

    The food was so fresh and delicious and just what we were looking for. The grilled catch of the day (ono) was prepared perfectly. The kale beet blue cheese salad was so tasty. Our teenager ate the whole smash burger and our younger one enjoyed the kids mac and cheese. Our server told us about daily brunch so we’ll be back this week to check it out. Keep up the good work. Such a delicious meal for a reasonable price.

    Expensive. Slow service. Food not of great quality and was delivered cold. Hummus that was served with the Lamb special was not edible. Rib eye overcooked. Beet salad and deviled eggs were the only plus.
