Restaurant week menu was a solid deal. The three courses were nicely plated and felt a bit upscale, but the portions were on the smaller side for the price. Still, a decent value for the experience.

A bit of a splurge, but that banana bread pudding is worth it. Warm, gooey, and not overly sweet. I&#39;d come back just for that.

Huge wall of taps. Bartender was super helpful, let us try a few samples before we picked. Went with a local IPA. Solid spot for the beer selection.

The cocktail with the five-spice rim was a standout. They&#39;re doing interesting things with toasted sesame and yuzu. I paired it with the duck, and the drink&#39;s spice notes complemented the dish perfectly. The bar program is definitely the highlight here.

The jalape&ntilde;o garlic sauce is what keeps us coming back. Tried it on the wings and the chicken salad - it&rsquo;s got a nice kick without being overwhelming. My kids even ask for it now. A solid choice for a quick family dinner.

The server with long dark hair was so attentive, always checking in. It made the meal feel really smooth and pleasant.

Ceviche was fantastic. Really fresh, great texture. The sushi was solid too, fresh fish. Miso soup was a nice touch. That&#39;s about it.

Our waitress was awesome! She brought out a few sauces for us to try before we ordered, which was so helpful. The chicken parm and manicotti were huge portions, perfect for sharing with the table. We all left stuffed.

Our server was so friendly and really knew the menu. She suggested the braised short ribs, and I&#39;m glad she did. They were rich and tender, and the dry stout was a perfect match for them. Made for a really nice dinner.

The drive-thru is so quick, even when they&#39;re packed. Staff always have a smile. I appreciate that my order is accurate every time - really helps when you&#39;re trying to stick to a plan.

I love the selection of organic and gluten-free items here. The wine section is particularly nice. It&#39;s a comfortable place to shop, and the staff are always friendly and helpful.

The wine list is huge and they really know their cheese pairings. We spent a whole afternoon here just trying a few glasses with different boards. Perfect for a lazy catch-up.

It can get pretty busy, but the wait wasn&#39;t too bad. Once seated, the service was quick and friendly.

Tried the tasting menu. Each course was well-executed, with clear attention to detail in the preparation. Service was efficient and matched the pacing of the meal. A solid choice for a business dinner downtown.

Came in for a late lunch. The pita bread was so soft and warm, it just melted with the baba ganoush. That little detail made the whole platter.

As a vegetarian, the prix fixe menu was a great find. Four courses for $60 felt like a steal.

Aaron and Ellen are the best! They remembered my name from my first visit and always check in without being overbearing. It&#39;s the kind of service that makes you want to come back.

Service was on point tonight. The evening crew is super friendly and professional, got our drinks refilled before we even asked. Made the whole dinner feel relaxed.

Trendy spot, super casual. Came with friends and we all loved the fried bologna sandwich appetizer! The brussels sprouts were a hit too. Great for a chill group hangout.

Been coming here for years, and the octopus appetizer is the one thing I always order. It&#39;s consistently tender, never chewy, and the char is just right. That&#39;s what keeps me coming back.

They accommodated my friend&#39;s vegan and gluten-free needs from the dinner menu, which was helpful. Her quinoa salad was fresh and well-prepared. Service was efficient. Good option for dietary restrictions downtown.

Kristina was a great server, kept our drinks topped up. The strawberry flips were the highlight, really fresh and not too sweet. Solid spot.

Been coming here for years, and the steak street tacos are still solid. Fresh cilantro and onions, corn tortillas that don&rsquo;t fall apart. Simple, but they get it right.
