BravoNovember 12, 2010Tasty, sustainable and inexpensive urban faves with always friendly service in a diverse crowed in the castro district. I recommend sitting solo on the counter and chatting up the servers as you have
Don't forget dessert!! Delicious apple pie with ice cream and caramel sauce. Ginger cake with cinnamon ice cream. Coconut cream pie. You won't be sorry.
They need to bring back the pesto on the minestrone soup. What's the deal with one TV? And it's usually on a kids station. They need to buy another TV. Besides this the food is great!
Carmina IlaganFebruary 25, 2010If you like Thai influenced dishes try the Smiling Noodles. Shrimp, Chicken, veggies and curry. Don't forget the dessert. The pies are great, the whipped topping is light and airy. Delish!
Concept Italy food and Bar, the menus is different that other in Lafayette
Hashim MteuziAugust 2, 2013Their 'vegan menu' lists dishes with potatoes & tofu that "are fried in the same oil as meat and fish." #whatajoke smh- You can order holiday pies and cakes too!! Delicious and affordable.
Brad TDecember 30, 2014Stem off from the ones in the city. Decent food and service. Seafood linguine was good.
JaneDecember 3, 2011This place always makes me happy...lots of light/windows, beautiful bar, indoor trees, fireplace, good food!
Jamie RocheMay 7, 2011Our goto spot. Great for kids and grievous. Try the seasonal muffin (whatever is not bran or blueberry).- I agree. The Smiling Noodles are wonderful. I also love the fish tacos and the lamb burger
Cheryl GreeneMarch 3, 2012Try the veggie platter and ask for substitutes if you don't love all the veggies.
Dot YeeFebruary 3, 2012Inconsistent food quality and service. If you catch them on a good night, it's great. If not, you're SOL.
The burger is amazing. Served on a baguette! Also try the artichoke as an appetizer!
Egg, ham and cheese sandwich and an ice tea taste even better on the patio
The fish tacos are great. If you go fried, ask for them 'extra crispy'.
Ryan PalmerMay 17, 2018Servers were all wearing sports t shirts and looked like they’d rather be elsewhere. Very unprofessional for the amount of money they charge for the food.
