An employee ran past me and said I could sit at the bar but after a few minutes I realized no one was working there.

There was only one server working and I could tell she was doing the best she could. Overall, the food was decent but I probably would not go during the lunch rush again. They are definitely understaffed.

Sometimes I get hot and it is very spicy but not quite at the level of 2x spicy noodles, maybe it's about 2 notches below that spice level. Also their fries are glass shattering crispy. Taking food to go the fries loose a little crisp but still hold up from the steam of the hot enclosed food box. The service is fast, the place is clean. The employees are very sweet and loving and even on a bad day they are professionally kind. I've been here over 20 times and although it's pricey I come by at least once a month.

The chicken is seasoned all the way through not just on the outside. You can tell this is not an afterthought spice situation. If you want flavor without heat you can get it. If you want heat with flavor pick spicy. We did. It is the sweet spot for anyone who knows their way around spice. The tenders taste like they were marinated because the flavor is built in. I am a pickle in every bite kind of person and these pickles understand the assignment. They cut the richness and bring balance to every bite. The bread deserves its own moment. It reminds me of a Hawaiian roll but less sweet and more savory which works beautifully here. Do not skip the honey drizzle. It sounds optional but it is not. The honey with the salty spicy chicken is the move. The space itself is a whole vibe. Bold graffiti art with San Antonio touches gives it local personality. The place was buzzing with energy and groups of teens which tells you it is doing something right. We will definitely be back.

The overall experience was excellent. The atmosphere is calm and inviting, with music at a comfortable volume that allows for easy conversation. Our server was incredibly kind and attentive, helping my friend and me navigate the menu since it was our first visit. We started with the garlic cheese bread, which interestingly came with pickles--a unique touch that surprisingly paired well with the bread and marinara sauce. For my entrée, I ordered the half portion of the spicy chicken Alfredo. At $13.99, it was a generous serving--rich, creamy, and mildly spicy without being overwhelming. It also came with a side of tomato basil soup, which complemented the meal perfectly. My friend ordered the Ciambotta, priced at $15.99, which included lasagna, chicken parmigiana, and spaghetti--a great variety and portion size. Our meals also came with garlic bread, and we even had enough to take home. The food arrived quickly, the service was efficient, and the ambiance made for a very enjoyable dining experience. I'll definitely be returning.

What an amazing meal!…read more My fiancé and I swung by for lunch on our way to the Witte and we're so glad that we did. The interior of this place was so unique, the staff were welcoming, and the food was absolutely delicious. Naturally we had to sit in the upstairs dining area just for the novelty of it, and while we didn't have to wait too long for our meal, we had fun playing the trivia card game that was on each table. I ordered the Parmo Pollo Panini with Tomato Basil Soup. The chicken in the Panini was a little dry, but coupled with the Tomato Basil Soup I could hardly tell. While they were delicious together, both were just as tasty on their own. The Panini was a good hearty sandwich, and the Tomato Basil Soup was packed full with delicious spices. I ended up taking up half of both the Soup and Panini to go as the portions were so large. I'm glad we went at the start of lunch rush as it was packed by the time we left.

The Green Belt Melt was delicious and not over stuffed, the bread was in my opinion the best part though. Really tasty and crunchy! The inside of the place was also super warm but the building itself is an old house, like a very old house, so again what can you expect? Overall we'd definitely come back but hopefully get a table downstairs and go earlier in the day when it isn't as hot.
