    Outdoor seating felt very safe covid-wise and we were able to find items on the menu we liked even though it's a shortened menu. We liked the vegan mac and cheese, buffalo cauliflower, and kale ceasar with grilled tofu.

    Loved the menu! Very vegan friendly for half our group and gluten free friendly for my friend. They also had some meat, diary, and seafood options but about half the menu was vegan. Out of six people every single one of us loved our food! The cocktails were very good too! This is going to be a new go to spot for me! Get the loaded fries they’re life changing

    One of the few alternatives for outdoor dining. They have a very nice patio. We had reservations for a late lunch on a Tuesday. It was still much busier and noisier than I expected. My crab cake sandwich was excellent. My husband’s chicken sandwich was very dry.

    Their buffalo cauliflower is amazing!! I felt very safe eating there. The tables were spread a part and the host offered me and my friend sanitizing wipes before seating us. The waitress was very sweet and kept checking on us. I definitely recommend this place, and I would definitely go just for the cauliflower is nothing else.

    Very good Covid safety precautions. They’ve moved to plastic cups for everything which is fine for water and stuff but kind of lost something with a $12 cocktail. There is a 90 min limit to your dinner but it took over an hour for us to get any food. Appetizers and entrees we ordered came out at the same time which wasn’t great either. We had to chase down servers quite a few times. I’m assuming most of this is Covid related, but experience did slightly suffer.

    Enjoyed a late lunch/brunch on Saturday. Food and service were exceptional. Ordered the omelet special with a side salad and order of toast. Eggs were cooked perfectly and the salad was fresh. The toast was a yummy multigrain. Hostess was very accommodating as one of our party hit traffic and was late. Advised us not to be seated because of the 90 minute time limit, but she’s was able to hold the reservation and take us right away when we were all there. Wait staff was also excellent. The outdoor accommodations were great, off the street, on a patio and under a tent, with heaters. I will definitely return.

    They do a great job with provided a safe and scenic space. Even before covid, service is also their weak point. They miss putting a condiment on the side, don’t bring a spoon with soup.m, have to flag down after meal is dropped. Food is good, vibe is great. Service has room for improvement (maybe they should write orders down since every time I go at least one person has something wrong).

    Good food, service was a little slow. The bill was higher than I thought it would be.

    Food was great portions were perfect. Not too much and no waste or boxes sitting in the fridge till trash night. The service was great this was the most pleasant dining experience I’ve had since the new restrictions of COVID. I will definitely be going back and recommending to others.

    Good food, nice atmosphere, drinks could have been a bit stronger for a $14 dollar cocktail, and server could have been a little less antsy but all and all a good experience, would definitely come back!
