    Had lunch here with my sister. I got the Rachel with chips and a mango smoothie. Both were really delicious. My sister got homemade iced tea and a tuna melt, I tried both of hers and they were really delicious too. The bathroom and restaurant were clean and the staff was so nice. It was such a relaxing and clam place, I am already thinking about the next time I got and try something new.

    Forgive the bite taken of the gluten free crab cake sandwich with chips.

    Great to have some wholesome and gluten free options nearby. The crab cake sandwich was good and tasty. Service was fairly quick and the inside was homey. I came the last hour before closing so there wasn't a big crowd but I will definitely stop back in for a casual lunch.

    When an hour in my morning unexpectedly freed up, I decided to take a break and go out for breakfast. I'd heard good things from friends about this spot, so I figured I'd give it a shot. I'm glad I did. The restaurant is homey, with a wooden interior, a couple of tables and lots of natural light. There's a ramp entrance from the back parking lot, making this a relatively accessible space. Once it was time to order, I felt rushed. The menus were on the walls, so there wasn't much opportunity to peruse the offerings before the wait staff wanted to take my order. The staff member taking orders at the register seemed impatient or distracted; she kept looking at the group who came in behind me as I placed my order. It didn't feel very mellow in that moment. Despite that temporary awkwardness, the smoothie I got was great. (It was so good I forgot to take a photo!) The Super Green Berry Beet had a rich, deep red color and a well balanced flavor. The spinach and beet flavors were recognizable and tempered the sweetness of all the other fruits with their earthiness. If you don't do seeds, skip this smoothie--there were a lot of seeds, which I liked, because it indicated they didn't skimp on the berries. My drink was made quickly and was very refreshing and satisfying. I'm looking forward to returning and trying the food and seeing if the vibes are different. I sure hope they are because I could see this becoming a great place for a healthy treat!

    We stopped in for a little Saturday Brunch ... counter service ... reasonable prices ... simple tasty fare. Deceptively larger seating inside and out than I expected. All the service ware is disposable ... also sorta surprising based on the awesome atmosphere, decor and artwork. Only downside things were a little dirty ... our table hadn't been wiped down and the restroom could use a little attention. Totally coming back though!!

After making my takeout order she talked with me for 20 minutes about her family, business (has operated this restaurant for 53 years!), and travels. On top of that, she made everything with one hand while wearing a cast from surgery from last week. Such a neat character, restaurant, and amazing food.

    First of all, I wanted to say that the main owner of this place is the kindest woman I've ever met…read moreher whole ethos is bringing people together to have conversations and I think just to have that mentality and compassion for people and that desire to bring people together around food is something that I inspired to Inculcate in myself. She honestly sat down and right away told me about her story told me about her family allowed me to join the conversation as well and it just felt like I was at home just for her. I would come back multiple times as far as the ambience goes. The door is always creating an inviting environment. it's one of the places where you just go and you feel like you're transported to another country where you can just relax. The food also felt very healthy. It wasn't heavy at all. It was a little bit on the pricey red but still, it just felt so homey so organic and overall the ambience made the whole experience.

    Dining at Ground Provisions was one of the most memorable culinary experiences I've had in years…read more From the moment you arrive, the setting sets the tone -- intimate, relaxed, and thoughtfully designed to let the food take center stage. What truly stands out is the level of creativity and execution coming out of the kitchen under Chef Brandon Beringer. This is a fully plant-based tasting menu, but it never once feels like a compromise. Each course is intentional, beautifully presented, and layered with flavors and textures that rival any traditional fine dining experience. The progression of the meal is especially impressive -- dishes build on one another in a way that feels curated and purposeful, not just a sequence of plates. It's clear that a great deal of thought goes into both the composition of each dish and the overall arc of the evening. What makes this even more notable is that Ground Provisions has earned recognition as a James Beard Award semifinalist, a well-deserved acknowledgment of the quality and originality of what's being created here. For anyone who appreciates thoughtful, chef-driven dining -- whether you're plant-based or not -- this is a must-visit. It's not just a meal, it's an experience.

After doing some research this morning, I learned the restaurant has already changed hands at least once in just a few years, which may help explain the inconsistency we experienced during our visit.

It was…read morekind of him to follow up my order of green current and drunken noodles to ask if we wanted to add a protein. We chose chicken for both. When I arrived to pick it up, the restaurant was clean and cozy; it would be a great spot for a date. The last time we dined at Chalit was at their previous location; it's been years. I always got pad thai in the past and wanted to have curry this time. I forgot that green curry is the spiciest when I was trying to decide between yellow or green. It's been years since I got to eat curry and at least a decade since I looked into the traditional heat levels! So, green curry is somewhat hotter than I typically choose but this was so delicious. I had it with their special brown rice - it's been so long since I dined in at the old location that I can't remember what makes it unique, but it is delicious with a wonderful tooth to it - it was perfectly cooked. The chicken was tender and eggplant is quickly becoming one of my favorite vegetables. I highly recommend green curry with special brown rice at Chalit.

    Chalits was a pleasant surprise and a great spot for flavorful Thai food in a welcoming setting…read more We ordered the crab fried rice, pineapple fried rice, vegetable fried rice, spring rolls, chicken dumplings, and Thai tea. The standout dishes were the crab fried rice and chicken dumplings--the fried rice was packed with flavor, while the dumplings were incredibly tender and practically melted in your mouth. The spring rolls were also excellent, and both the pineapple and vegetable fried rice were well-executed and satisfying. The only miss for us was the Thai tea, which was a bit sweeter than we prefer. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it an enjoyable place to linger over lunch. Service was friendly and accommodating, though it was noticeably slow at times. The restaurant seemed a bit short-staffed and can get quite busy during lunch hours, which likely contributed to the wait. Overall, a very enjoyable meal with several standout dishes that I'd happily order again.

I was particularly impressed by the flavorful sev puri and samosa chaat that we got for appetizers.

Total came out to approximately $43 (not including tip). What's hot - Menu. Pretty good. There's something for everyone, possibly even vegans. I'm uncertain whether they have vegetable broth, but they have options that are vegetarian. There's pho, ramen, rice, curry, meats, and tofu. - Quality. Pretty good. The chicken karage was not overly breaded, crispy, had a nice flavor. Lt was not overly salty and served warm. My tofu miso ramen was not overly seasoned, which I appreciate. One of my pet peeves is when noodle soups are too salty, because it detracts from what the natural flavor should be. My miso ramen had a nice seasoning. My husband really enjoyed his red curry. He said it had a slight kick of spiciness with a slight taste of sweetness from the coconut milk. - Portions. Pretty decent size portions to get you full, not stuffed. Good value for money. - Location. Centrally located in downtown around other shops and restaurants. What's not - Service. Among the 4 in our group, 3 of us had something wrong with our orders. My ramen arrived with no tofu. When our friends received their orders, it was completely wrong (I.e., they were given someone else's order). There were also mistakes in the dishes they actually ordered. Given all the errors, everything was delayed and took longer, which was frustrating. - Payment. You're expected to pay your tab before actual service, which includes tips, as well. Hubby and I aren't fans of that, especially given all the mistakes that our group encountered. - Parking. Since it's downtown, it's mostly timed and metered parking in the area. - Time. They close at 8pm. Our group was the last ones in the restaurant, which surprised us. As such, I asked their staff what time they close. When they responded 8pm, I asked them if our group should leave. The staffers told me that my group was ok, which we appreciated. However, we didn't stick around. Just be prepared that this is not a place you can continue to hang out in. Final answer Willing to return, but not a first choice.
