We particularly enjoyed the lamb, scallops, the crostini trio and meatballs. The ambiance is exactly what I want to walk into. Light, fun, and unassuming. I can be dressed up for date night, or stroll in, in cutoffs and a tank top. We had the peach strawberry frozen wine option and it's so delicious and refreshing. They actually use real fruit to make the puree and it makes all the difference in the world! We had Cory as a server and she was absolutely amazing, helpful and attentive, without being overbearing. Can't wait to go back!

My first visit meal was great although I feel the two crab cakes we're way overpriced. The Chicken Marsala was good. Today I had seared scallops that were not completely cooked. They were a little glossy inside near the middle. I do not feel I got near the value for what I paid. You get about a tablespoon size of mashed potatoes. If you are looking to satisfy your hunger, you will be disappointed with this meal.

I have to say they have the best matcha in town as it was so flavorful and I got it with lavender flavor which was 10/10. Second I got the eggs benedict (eggs benny, classic) and it was delicious.

Also I was on my break and when I explained it to the nice lady behind the bar she was super nice and allowed me to pay early so I could leave when I needed to. Able to get in and out in 20 minutes!! Of course I want to go back and actually sit down and enjoy it more next time.

The place was packed on a Sunday and a 1.5 hour wait for a party of 8. Everyone was super friendly and accommodating! We sat in the back dining area and they made a table for 8. Let me start with the drinks, the chai espresso drink MUST GET. Best alcoholic beverage I've ever had in my life. My friend and I both agree and had two each. They have a nice variety of breakfast, with healthier and smaller options. The prices are decent, definitely city prices. I had the shakshuka, which was phenomenal but wish there was an option to add more meat. The portion was huge and the sourdough was delicious. We all enjoyed and I'd definitely come back!

Ladies started with a sparkling wine Cremant de Limoux -France and was very pleasant.

Fabulous doesn't do it justice. Served in expansive Riedel glasses. For me, it worked really well with the Duck Confit which was combined in a cassoulet. Cassoulet was a real high point and Was so delicious I am graving it as I write this the next day. Two of us had the duck and two had the Steak Frites which were very good but a little light on portion size for the frites. Frites were salty but yummy yummy. Shared the vanilla bean crème brûlée good as you would expect but not extraordinary. Would recommend this restaurant and its attentive team. Really a beautiful space. Some unique seating..
