    Service was soooo slow. Understaffed? Maybe. Bit not busy either. Server was doing everything. Not even a busboy or bartender. Just one guys trying to do it all. Poor management. But, food took a long time to arrive and the FIRST plate arrived cold!It was claimed that it couldn’t be reheated but had to prepare new plate. It was claimed it would get priority but it took just as long!! Verbatim my order: meatloaf to share, a side simple salad ($4.00) and got an entree simple salad ($14.00!!). Food subpar. I cook better. Won’t be going back!

    Food was pretty mid, nothing terrible, but nothing stood out. We had a salad that was over-dressed, two fried chicken sandwiches - the Nashville Hot was ok but the Korean BBQ was too sweet. The Kale-aid and coffee were great.

    Thank you for your feedback, Robert. We are glad you enjoyed the Kale-aid and coffee, and we'll work on balancing the flavors in the execution of our offerings.

    Also, and the waitress went out of their way to ensure that we had a pleasant and extraordinary experience. They even surprise me with a little birthday dessert, which was incredible, and just icing on the cake for it truly fantastic experience. Plus, the patio was extra heated, which is Pleasant compared to other places where I’ve sat outside during the winter.

    The service was awful, first we were given a seat near the entrance but there’s a lot of vacant seats, we asked to be seated to our favorite seat 2nd we waited so long for the server to come, I asked the host why our server is taking so long knowing that they were not not busy at that time, they even accommodated the two guest who came after us, 3rd finally the server came and asked for what we would like to drink but he was taking the menu from us while asking what we want 4th I ordered the grilled grass fed tenderloin I requested for medium well the meat has an awful smell and it’s too dry but I ate it anyways because I was so hungry and that was our first meal for that day. I always go to True food you can tell from my reservations record but this is the first time I encountered this kind of service. I am very disappointed.

    Our waiter Nicole was great. Efficient and friendly, she made good recommendations and brought out the food timely and correctly. We liked a particular sauce and Chef 👨‍🍳 Noah came to our table to tell us about it! Mitchell the manager was also attentive, greeting guests, clearing tables and making sure that the restaurant was running smoothly. Appreciate all of their efforts!
