The waitress looked at our group with disgust and said, "we don't have seating for 6 people together." We just looked at each other with confusion. A Caucasian couple got up, said we can have their table and we pushed 2 tables together. There were plenty of empty tables in the restaurant to make accommodate a party of 6. The stares continued, so we left. The Green Apple clearly did not want African Americans in their establishment. DO NOT GO HERE! They don't deserve our black dollars!

The one lady who was cooking and serving was doing a great job, and we felt welcomed in and attended to right away. We had some trouble deciding what to have, as a lot of things on the menu sounded good, but it was unfortunately not to be. I ordered the breakfast garbage plate, which had hash browns, sausage gravy and two eggs (cooked medium). I added the house made hot sausage for $5.65 and got 1 approximately 4 oz sausage. The hash browns were fine, nothing special, and the sausage gravy was woefully lacking in flavor except for salt. The eggs were a little overcooked, but that's my fault...or the fault of breakfast cooks all over the country who don't do over easy eggs properly. I order over medium cuz I hate when the white isn't cooked. These were definitely cooked. The sausage was not good. It was sweet on the palate...like way sweet. It didn't taste much of sausage flavor, and there was a hit of heat on the finish. My sister had the sausage gravy & biscuit and she said the same thing about the gravy. I wish it was a better result-I'd love to give business to a local place that had good food.

They had a really cool selection of unique food and drinks - it was hard to choose! I got a glass of local Cab Sauv, and my partner and I split the Spalla, Zucchini Salad, and the Deep Fried Quail. The spalla was like a less fatty prosciutto - not quite as flavorful, but nice texture. The zucchini salad was a really fun blend of flavors - a nice crunchiness from the almonds, a zestyness from the gochujang romanesco sauce, and a savoriness from the Bulgarian feta. The decided favorite though was the deep fried quail, with its perfect outer crust and yummy sauce.

This is the first restaurant we went to for dinner in Geneva and it was, unfortunately, a very…read moredisappointing experience despite their excellent reviews. Let me get to the details: Service: staffs were not attentive, friendly, nor helpful. The restaurant was busy when we came so we decided to seat outside. However, their outdoor tables were wobbly. Also, there were no bugs control devices nor heating lamps to accommodate us. When we asked to move inside, their response was we have to talk to the host and the hostess told us it is not possible because they were "too busy".... Yet we would see an empty table where they rather seat 2 people that come after us instead of us. On top of all that, our sever never came to refill our water. For service, this place is a zero star for me. Food: we ordered their famous heavy plate. The food size was loaded for the price, everything tastes fine but nothing was exceptional. Giving them some stars for the decent food. Atmosphere: inside has lots of booth style seatings and bar seatings. They can accomplish large parties. Outdoor seating is not great as their tables were cheap and they're seating on a slope. There were no heat lamps or bug controls so I don't recommend eating outside in the evening here. Overall: honestly, we felt ignored at this restaurant. I wouldn't come back here since they're not very accommodating or nice. Highly recommend management to train their staffs better.
