Beautiful and clean decor. Our waitress, Greta, was outstanding! Fish and chips 2/5&hellip; cold and not crispy. French fries same thing. Plate probably sitting under lights for several minutes. Lobster bisque and clam chowder fantastic!

The dark bread was nice, and the Brussels sprouts with black garlic aioli were really good. I&rsquo;d never tried them before, but I liked them. The sprouts were crispy and not bitter at all. A solid choice.

Great find near our hotel. Food was fresh and a surprise.

Came for restaurant week. The three-course menu was a nice deal, and the swordfish was a solid, meaty choice. Service was friendly and attentive.

The steaks come on these sizzling hot plates, so they keep cooking at your table. Keep that in mind when you order your doneness.

Solid vegetarian options. The server knew the menu well and suggested a good wine pairing. It&#39;s a practical choice if you&#39;re dining with someone who has dietary restrictions.

The lobster bisque here is fantastic, really rich and creamy. Their fish and chips are always solid, too. The holiday decorations are a nice touch.

The omelet was spot on, and the scrambled eggs were cooked exactly how I like them. Breakfast classics done right. Coffee was a bit weak for my taste, but the eggs were the star.

Love the walk-up ice cream window for a treat after dinner. But the real star was the wine list - found a great local red that paired perfectly with the steak. Made the whole evening. Location is super convenient for a stroll downtown.

The bread here is so good and they keep bringing more! Great for a post-work hang with friends.

A solid brunch spot downtown. The food was well-seasoned, and the old radiators by the windows gave it a nice, cozy feel.

Restaurant Week menu was a solid deal. The salmon was a huge portion, cooked just right. My wife&rsquo;s scallops were a hit. Good value for the price.

Pricier than other spots around here. But the food quality is solid. Worth it for a special night out.

The Cowboy omelet is huge! Stuffed with sausage, cheese, and hash browns, and that sausage gravy on top is the real deal. A total gut-bomb in the best way. 😋

The bakery across from the pasta bar is solid. Grab-and-go pastries are great, and the staff is always quick and friendly.

The menu&#39;s small but focused. The daily omelet was spot on - fluffy and packed with fresh herbs. The quiche Lorraine had a perfect, buttery crust. You can tell they put care into each dish.

The breakfast burrito was so good, with perfectly crispy potatoes. I spent the morning working here, and the light at the counter was just right. A really nice, low-key spot.

The carnitas tacos were spot on, tender and flavorful. Chicken enchiladas had a nice kick. The bullfighter margarita though? That&#39;s the star of the show. Really hit the spot.

Been coming here for years. The escargot and duck are always solid. Chef sometimes says hi, which is cool.

Quick service on a packed Saturday night, which was nice. Our server was on top of things, kept the water glasses full. Food arrived faster than expected.

Their Vietnamese iced coffee is the real deal. Strong, sweet with the condensed milk, and so refreshing on a hot day. My friends and I ended up ordering a second round because it was that good.

Pancakes were light and fluffy, just like I remember from years ago. The place was busy but we got a table pretty fast.

Loved the beer selection here, especially the ciders on draft. The layered options are a cool touch&mdash;had a black and tan and it was a fun, tasty choice. The whole place just has a really relaxed, easygoing vibe.

This place is clean and feels roomy, which I really appreciate. It&#39;s a convenient spot near the university. The booths are comfortable and the staff is friendly, making for a relaxed meal.

The tandoori chicken was so good, and I love that you can pick your spice level! Went with friends and we shared a bunch of things. The onion naan was perfect for scooping everything up. Staff was super chill.

That Nashville hot chicken sandwich is a must! Perfect for sharing with friends if you&#39;re not too hungry. The wings were solid, but honestly, the spicy ranch dip is what I kept going back for. So good.

Quick lunch spot. Got the turkey avocado pita and waffle fries. Pita was fresh, fries crispy. Came out fast, which is key for me. Service was solid. Good for a quick bite.

The cheese curds are a good snack, especially with their adobo ranch. Fries are thin and crispy too. Solid bar food for the price.

The Fire Breathing Dragon pizza is my go-to. Tiramisu was a bit dry, but the pizzas are always solid.

Been coming here for years for the lunch buffet. Still one of my favorites around, always solid choices. Perfect for a casual catch-up with friends.
