    Decent. Was disappointed by the lack of flavor in the burger. Lamb Flatbread was undercooked and the bread was flavorless. Not bad, but wouldn't make it a destination.

    Overall the restaurant has a nice quiet vibe, but the service was lacking and rude. The menu is simple, and nothing you couldn't put together in a microwave.

    The service was really terrible. The atmosphere was awkward and near silent. The pork belly sandwich was ok.

    Food is universally excellent, but service is slow, inattentive and overall, leaves a lot to be desired.
