    Food was marginal. Service sub par. There are better options available.

    I thought that the ambiance and location was very nice. The service was very good. The food however was just mediocre.

    It's such a pretty well-designed space. The hostess and servers were amazing so welcoming and warm, really attentive, and food came out pretty fast. The portions are tiny and was fine for me but definitely not enough food for my husband. My husband ordered the crudo to start and then the halibut for a main dish. Unfortunately, both of them were pretty bland. I ordered the Caesar, salad, and burger. The Caesar salad was average and tiny, but the burger was delicious. I'll definitely try them again to see if dinner is better, but I probably wouldn't go back for lunch.

    The host was being a bit rude to our party and refusing simple requests like moving a heater over to our table despite there only being 2 parties in the entire restaurant throughout our meal. We eventually had a staff member assist us with the heating (which we were initially told could not be moved at all -- despite there being wheels on this portable heater). Overall it was a needlessly cumbersome experience and the food was not so good as to warrant the service or the price. The patio was nice.
    The Vault GardenResponded on August 24, 2024
    Hi Chidire, This is not what we set out to deliver and we are very sorry about your experience. We will definitely address this with the team member and continue coaching them. All our best, The Vault

    Great to have this oasis in the middle of downtown. Service was solid. Food was excellent (though we only ordered two salads - with salmon and with chicken). Nice music, nice vibe. Noise from other tables was pretty high once the lunch hour got going.
