    The Veggie Gyro was unreal. Sat at the counter and watched the team grill deliciousness into the pita bread and veggies I was about to eat. Comes with a side of house made chips and a pickle.

    Daytime is far superior to dinner service. Squash toast and cauliflower melt both very good. The bialy and breakfast sandwich, not so good

    Dinner! Smoked fish pate w/ crackers and hot sauce, lamb cooked perfectly with horseradish and garlic sauce, surprise favorite: braised celery. Beautiful space, friendly staff, delicious food.

    I’m always hesitant to label a place a vibe, but this place is a vibe! Cool staff. Great food. I don’t think I need to say this but get some table pastries.

    I love it here. The food is so good, the vibes are so good, everything rules. I wish they stayed open for dinner more often!

    All parts fancy, beautiful, and delicious. One of those restaurants that falls into the "old reliable" category.

    Daytime spot. Visited for dinner and was a bit underwhelmed as the menu is very short. Chicken soup was excellent.

    Nice vibe and cute small outdoor space . Everything is extremely overly saucy/marinated.

    Cute place, but if you don't like sun in your face avoid to seat near by the windows. Talking about the food, it is just ok.

    Great ambience and vibe, but found dinner pretty average. Baked goods overhyped. Root beer flat. I guess the cauliflower was a highlight?

    A bit overrated, but if you’re already inside, the patty Reuben is the clear way to go
