                                                      Just ok. Food was nothing spectacular. Took our waiter at least 20 minutes to come to our table to begin with. Would try this again and maybe just order pizza for lunch.

                                                      The food at Eatery A is always superb. Our service was ok-but not ideal, though it was very busy, so I don’t want to be harsh. The noise level can be a bit much, but the food keeps me coming back! Pick a week day if you want a quieter atmosphere.

                                                      Love the happy hour pizza special and getting to enjoy it sitting out on the patio.

                                                      Great food in happy hour prices would be expensive for what it is if it wasn’t for happy hour.

                                                      The large selection of vegetarian options is so great. Service might have been considered slow, but allowed for uninterrupted conversation.

                                                      The food was good not over the top fabulous. And the drinks were average.

                                                      Excellent food. Nice ambiance. It did get pretty loud as more people filled tables. Server was friendly and efficient.
