The almond cream croissant was still warm. Flaky, buttery layers with just the right amount of filling. Got there at 8:30 and they were already half gone. That first bite with my morning coffee was everything.

The raw bar happy hour is a nice find. The oysters tasted really fresh, and the shrimp cocktail was crisp. I appreciate that they list the sourcing on the menu. Cocktails were good, but I stuck with one. A solid spot for some light, fresh bites.

Patrick was our server and he was really great. Super friendly, remembered our drink refills without asking. Made the whole dinner feel more relaxed.

The Dominican food here is a nice surprise, quite different from Mexican. Flavors are original and everything tasted pretty good. I&rsquo;d say the prices are a bit on the high side though.

Stopped in for a treat while downtown. The vibe is so cozy and welcoming&mdash;felt like a little escape from the busy street. Grabbed a slice of their seasonal berry pie and it was just the right amount of sweet. Perfect little find.

Good selection of drinks. Tried their seasonal special, a spiced pear cider. Solid. Also appreciate they have lactose-free options for my friend.
