Poppy & Seed is consistently one of my favorite dining spots. The food is always amazing—fresh, creative, and full of flavor. Drinks are delicious, and the presentation is top-tier every time. You can tell there’s real care and artistry behind everything that comes out of the kitchen. I’ve been several times now, and it never disappoints. The menu changes regularly, which keeps things exciting, and the price point is very reasonable for the quality and true chef-driven experience you get. The ambience is charming and unique—set inside a greenhouse-style building that feels cozy, airy, and just the right amount of trendy. The only minor downside is that parking can be a bit tricky, but it’s a small price to pay for such a standout dining experience.
