The salmon was so creamy, and the tuna just melted. You can tell they really care about freshness. Perfect spot for a chill dinner with friends.

The charcuterie board was a solid start. Loved the local selections, and the presentation was really nice on that slate board.

The pastrami Diablo with that smoky slaw is so good! It&#39;s a fun take on a classic. Had just the right kick without being too much. Perfect for sharing a couple with friends over a casual lunch.

The crab rangoon was the star for me. Crispy, not greasy, and packed with filling. I&#39;ve had plenty that are all wrapper, but not here. A solid choice.

The pizza sauce had that tangy NYC-style flavor I love. But for the price, the slices felt a bit small. I was still hungry after two.

The Chicken Milanese was done just right, and the Fettuccine Alfredo sauce is the best I&#39;ve had. The portions are huge, so I took some home. The booths are comfortable and spaced well apart, which made the meal feel relaxed.

The patio was lovely and comfortable. The service was very friendly, and the homemade salsa was really good.

The chocolate chip cookie was still warm, with a crispy edge and a soft, gooey center. The sea salt on top really made it. A solid late-night dessert spot.

Grabbed bagels to go from here while staying in the neighborhood. Really liked that I could order ahead&mdash;they were ready right on time. The everything bagel was super fresh and chewy, just how I like it. Super easy stop.

The breakfast sandwich was cooked just right, and the fresh fruit on the side was a nice touch. Really liked the bright, airy space in the morning&mdash;made for a relaxed start.

The fried spring rolls were fantastic. Pad thai was nice too, with those finely crushed peanuts.

Stopped in near the college. The brie and apple panini had a great crunch, and the tomato soup was spot on. I paired it with a local cider they suggested&mdash;really worked with the brie. The smoothie bowl was a fresh pick-me-up.

Been coming here for years, and the staff still makes you feel at home. They&#39;re great at helping new folks figure out the menu.

The chocolate-covered bacon was a fun surprise! Not too sweet, with a nice salty kick. I also grabbed a few of their fig newtons for the road. Solid spot for a quirky sweet tooth fix.

Stopped in late after a show. The staff was super nice about it. Those loaded tortilla chips were so good we had to get more!
