The Iskender kebab was the star for me. The meat was tender and had that perfect smoky char from the grill.

A cozy little spot, nice and quiet. The chickpea fritters were spot on, and the gnocchi was just right. They had a really interesting selection of natural wines by the glass. Picked one that went surprisingly well with the fritters.

Been coming here for a while now. The sushi is always so fresh, you can really taste the quality in the fish. It&#39;s a nice, cozy spot for a quiet lunch. The rice was perfectly seasoned this time, which I really appreciate.

The coffee&#39;s good, but it&#39;s the baked goods that keep me coming back. That lemon-thyme scone? Unusual and absolutely nailed it. The Star Wars stuff is a fun touch, but honestly, I&#39;m just here for the pastry case.

The staff made my birthday feel so special. They brought out a little dessert with a candle, and everyone sang. It was a really sweet touch.

The open kitchen is a nice touch. You can watch the chefs work. The space is small, so a reservation is a good idea.

Nice patio for a quick summer lunch. Grabbed a beer and a burger. Burger was decent, came out fast. Patio was a bit crowded though. Good spot if you need a quick bite outside.

Been here a few times. The kebabs are solid, especially the koobideh. Good spot to bring friends trying Persian food for the first time. Location&#39;s handy.

The back area near the restrooms has such nice lighting, really soft and flattering. It&#39;s perfect for taking photos without feeling like you&#39;re in a spotlight. Made our group dinner feel a bit more special without being fussy.

Been back a few times for the Halal Burger Combo. Love that you can really customize your burger with all the toppings. The place just has a nice, easy vibe to it.

A bit pricey, but the seafood selection is solid. They had some really fresh scallops and the tuna was spot on. Student discount is a nice touch.

Busy spot, but they keep things moving. Perfect for a quick lunch. Got the banana split - classic diner dessert done right. Service was efficient even when packed. Just what I needed.

Came for a late lunch on a Saturday. The space is really nice&mdash;lots of natural light from the big windows and the tables aren&#39;t crammed together. Makes it easy to just relax. The food was great, honestly some of the better Italian I&#39;ve had.

Our server Crystal was so friendly and helpful with recommendations. The service was quick and attentive, which made for a relaxed meal.

Connected to the Holiday Inn. Menu&#39;s got a solid range. Food was good, decently priced. Staff were friendly, service was quick. They had a nice local IPA on tap that went well with the burger. A bit noisy from the lobby, but fine for a casual bite.

The ribeye here is fantastic. It&#39;s from their own butcher shop, so the quality is top-notch. Perfectly cooked, super tender and juicy. A bit pricey for a quick lunch, but you get what you pay for.

The pho broth was really good, but the portion felt a bit small for the price. I was still a little hungry after. The beef was tender though.

The Eggs Benedict is the reason I keep coming back. The eggs were perfectly runny, hollandaise rich and buttery. That side of fresh fruit was a nice, sweet contrast. Just a solid, classic brunch plate.

The French martini was really good, but honestly I just loved the vibe here. The lighting was warm and the bar stools were actually comfortable to sit on for a while. A nice place to just unwind.

The Kinoya course for two was a lovely flow of dishes. Just the right rhythm, never felt rushed or waiting. A quiet, steady kind of delight.

Stewart was a great server. He knew the menu inside out and steered us right on the wine pairing. Food arrived fast, which we appreciated with a curtain time to hit.

The beef quesadillas were nice and crispy, with a little parmesan on top. The jerk chicken had a good kick to it. I really appreciated how the server checked in just the right amount&mdash;not too often, but we never had to look around for a refill.

The butter chicken here was really good. I appreciate that they use fresh ingredients, you can taste it in the sauce. The spice level was just right for me. A solid choice when you want something flavorful but not too heavy.

Server Mitsuko was super helpful with the menu. Got my order fast and the food was really good. Perfect for a quick lunch.

The basil fried rice was the standout. Fresh, fragrant, and just the right amount of wok hei. Pad see ew was solid too. Great spot for a casual group dinner.

Just opened, nice Indian vibe. Our server Jasmine was really helpful. The food presentation was beautiful, had the butter chicken. Menu looks good, will probably be back to try more.

The mango lassi was the star for me. Perfectly balanced, not too sweet, and super refreshing on a warm day. They&#39;ve got a solid drinks menu overall.

Been coming here for years. The pizza is always solid, thin crust, good cheese. Salad&#39;s fresh. Staff knows their stuff, they&#39;ll point you to what&#39;s good. A reliable spot in the neighborhood.

Wednesday Wellington special is a solid deal for the portion.
