    We usually love this place. While the service was wonderful, we were very disappointed to see that all of the fries, sweet potato fries and onion rings are now being cooked in beef tallow. I understand that seed oils are unsafe but avocado oil is a much better option. As someone who doesn't eat meat, it was very disappointing.

    We found the restaurant pleasant, energetic, and upbeat. The food was excellent, compliments to the chef. We were celebrating a birthday, reserved in advance and were promptly seated in a booth . . . next to the toilets. (ugh) We asked to be reseated as it was freezing at that table which faces the open entry doors. Ended up in the smaller dining area which we discovered, as we settled in, was freezing as well (50 degree tonight). Made the best of it. Enjoyed the meal but would advise people to be aware of the facilities and be specific when you book. Why reserve if this is what you end up with for a special dinner? Disappointing.

    Great. We enjoyed the Rueben, and the Mac and Cheese. It was all delicious. We had the butter cake which is very popular. For me it was too much like cheesecake which is good but not what I was expecting.
