    Service was great. Wine had sediment and they apologized. Food was great. Overall bill was a bit $$. Seated at a soso table away in the corner yet folks without reservations got seated at better tables so not sure I would use Open Table to book at this restaurant.

    Lovely venue, food was fresh and super delicious, best lunch I have had in a great while. Added bonus that food is not processed and felt great about eating a meal that is great for my health. Server was super attentive and helpful with our menu questions. Highly recommend!

    The food was good, but a bit pricey for what it was. We wrote on our reservation details that we were celebrating our fifth anniversary, and the waiter didn’t mention or acknowledge it at all. The biggest issue was just that the restaurant was out of a lot of food and drink options! They didn’t have my first two beverage choices, my entree choice, or my first dessert choice.

    Hostess was not welcoming at all, and the waitress was juggling a lot of tables so response time wasn’t the fastest. Overall, though, the experience was great!

    Great food (and so healthy) without seed oils and refined sugars. The ancient grain bowl with air-fried chicken was just delicious. The hummus (our appy) was the best my friend & I have ever tasted. The ancient grain pita that accompanied the hummus was amazing.

    Thank you for your review, Julie. We're happy to hear you enjoyed the ancient grain bowl and hummus, and we look forward to serving you again!

    This is a great option for people with limited diets and allergies. Great care was taken to make sure my friend’s food was safe for her to eat! I am also very restricted due to an autoimmune disease and we both saw several options we could enjoy. Our server, Luke, was attentive and very patient with our questions as well as our tendency to get busy gabbing instead of deciding what we wanted to eat. We have a new regular lunch spot!

    Thank you for your wonderful review, Kelly! We're delighted to hear that you and your friend found several options to enjoy and appreciated Luke's attentive service.
