    Service was neglectful. Food was overcooked and under cooked depending on the dish. They were out of multiple entrees. Our server forgot us. It was pretty awful

    Turns out that there was a private event in the main dining room at the same time as our reservation. Mother Nature was gracious in providing good weather (for a change) so we sat outside on the sidewalk. Restaurant is VERY noisy, even outside. They could turn down the music so diners can hear each other. Our server, Derek, was fabulous. Many thanks to him. We had good cobb salads, very filling. Also at a higher price point than other, similar eateries. One point of annoyance I'd forgotten: The restaurant charges a 3% surcharge. Time to give that up. You already raised your prices AND have the surcharge? I love LEYE restaurants, but will choose a different one next time.

    We had a reservation for 1 and it took a little bit of time to get us seated. The hostess was overwhelmed bc the place was packed. The manager came by and spoke with us and got things moving. Service was impeccable and the food was delicious. Great restaurant. Don’t skip the dessert bar when you come. They don’t disappoint.

    The server was very pleasant and very attentive. We had fish tacos and brussel sprouts salad. Even on a hot day, nice and breezy.

    Food quality/taste has declined but price has increased—separate from normal/expected increases.

    Took awhile for a server to come to the table at any point: upon seating, throughout the meal, etc. Food was just OK. Beautiful place though!

    Nice atmosphere, but tables are a bit too close to each other Food was tasty, but both the salad and grilled chicken were a bit dry Service was good Very expensive for lunch, every protein add on to a salad was in the range of $12-15 and then even the most basic salad was $12/13. Several dishes were over $30, which just is too expensive for lunch. Also, they charged a $3 surcharge which seems to be a ridiculous leftover from Covid. That needs to be eliminated.
