    Pleasant and engaging server. My veggie burger was moist and flavorful. Miso dumplings were ok.

    Very poor service. Slow. Inattentive. Took forever to get orders taken. Never refilled water. We eat there frequently & this was the only time that’s happened.

    Preview tasting of the new fall menu was an excellent way to try new items. The Chinese Chicken Salad and Rosemary Focaccia were my overall favorites and the grilled tenderloin with cheesy potatoes was very flavorful. Dessert paired chocolate and peanut butter in an irresistible almond/coconut crusted “Tarte Bite.” All three drinks in the Margarita Flight were well blended with no single ingredient overpowering the others. It was hard to choose, but the El Pomelo with patron blanco tequila and grapefruit edged slightly ahead off the other two as my top choice.

    Thank you for your detailed review! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the preview of our new fall menu and found so many favorites. We look forward to welcoming you back to try more!

    Delicious September specials. We had the Rancher’s Hash & Burrito. Delicious! We also went early, so the noise level was low.

    The food was outstanding - amazingly fresh and tasty. The marriage of different flavours in the veggie bowl I had with prawns was incredible. One of the best meals I've had at a local restaurant in a long time. The pizzas looked fab too. My whole group of five all loved their food and we all had different things.

    Gabe/Gabriel was an outstanding server. He was a pleasure to talk to and had some great menu recommendations. We were sitting outside and noticed that a customer started smoking. We were downwind of it during a windy evening, so the smell was overwhelming. After a few minutes we reached out to the host who promptly asked the customers to stop smoking. The host and Gabe both apologized to us and we greatly appreciated how they handled the situation.
