“ We went here for a late lunch on a whim and I’m So glad we did! The vibe of the space is very cool, eclectic and fun. We both ended up getting the OG chicken sandwich and it was sooooo good! The photos don’t do it justice. The service was fast and friendly and we can’t wait to go back and try something else on the menu! Thank you for a wonderful experience. Ps don’t hesitate to level up your side to truffle fries! ”
“ We stopped in for a Friday lunch, the restaurant was charming and tidy and the service was fantastic. We both tried the fried chicken sandwich, I upgraded my side of French fries to truffle fries (a 6 upcharge). They were great, hot and crisp, generously topped with Parmesan and truffle aioli, although, they were a little heavily salted for my taste. The chicken sandwich was excellent, it was lightly coated, tender and juicy. The lettuce and tomato were fresh and the garlic aioli was delicious. We enjoyed our meals and would happily return. ”
“ Excellent restaurant in downtown. The food was amazing. We ordered a Korean fried chicken sandwich and beef with mushroom and brie which were both delicious The fries were very crispy and soft and fluffy on the inside. Really good. The Caesar salad was also pretty good. All items and sides were 10/10 honestly. Will definitely recommend. We came in around 7pm on a August sunday and the place was about half full. Service was pretty good. Server was friendly and quick. Didn't experience any slowness like some other comments say. ”
“ Great food, margaritas, and service! Best Guac ever!! Tacos were also amazing as always. ”
“ Me and my mom went here. The vibe was nice. The server brought us water immediately which is always good. And then the food and drinks were perfect! I had a beet and goat cheese salad and my mom had a chicken club on sourdough with a side of brussel sprouts and everything was unreal. ”
“ Been here 2 times this week. Drinks are fantastic - the desserts hit. Service was a bit slow both times but patience brought beautiful things - I highly recommend the rum punch and chocolate cake. Truffle Fries were ordered both times 10/10. It was a sweet gesture for them to offer moms a free glass of Prosecco for Mothers Day. ”
