We started out with some truffle fries and they were great, a must get. For lunch I had the Greek Falafel plate. Not only was the presentation gorgeous but it had a generous portion of hummus and tzatziki. It was full of crispy chickpeas to give a little crunch. The sweet peppers, rainbow carrots, and broccolini were roasted to perfection and full of flavor. The watermelon radish added a gorgeous splash of color and the feta spread throughout . The plate was served with a side of za'atar naan that was a burst of spice and completely complimented the meal. Then to top it off.... Beautiful flowers to add more color and elegance. The service was prompt and kind the entire time! Our colleague showed us around the place after our meal and the theme to me definitely is making people feel welcome and special. It's the little touches that matter, like the beautiful artwork extending from the first floor to the top floor in the stairwell. A cool place to work, collaborate, and be social offering various spaces to meet all your needs.

My dog was a member at Ruff for several months and enjoyed his experience. Last summer, a dog…read morestarted to bully him and would not leave him alone. I separated the dogs but the owner of the offending dog was extremely rude. My dog is playful and not aggressive and I watched this other dog instigate and bully my dog. I watched this dog get into fights with several other dogs as well. We cancelled our memberships and did not go back until this month. Within 5 minutes of being there, the same dog that had tried to fight my dog last time came up to my dog and was trying to fight with him. I ran over and snatched my dog away and the instigating dog set his eyes on another victim. I appreciate the referees at Ruff as they came over to make sure that he was OK. The manager, however, was not helpful at all and said that there was nothing that they could do. We were there for less than 5 minutes. At the very least the manager could have refunded our day pass as my dog clearly did not get to enjoy the park. The park is a great concept but management needs to step in when dogs are consistent offenders. It is not fair to all of the other dogs that play nicely to have a bully ruin it for everyone else. We will not be returning.

I am truly speechless!…read more I decided to treat myself to a Self-Care Saturday, and as a mental health therapist, I know I don't do that nearly as often as I should. After hearing about Skin HC from a friend, I decided to stop by, and lucky me--they had just begun their soft opening. I will say, I am very picky, but I honestly can't believe how amazing this space is. It is not only beautifully decorated, but the service was absolutely superb from start to finish. I was greeted by name and welcomed with delicious spa water, which immediately made me feel cared for. I then settled into the Release Massage, and my therapist was probably the best I've ever had--so professional, skilled, and accommodating. After my service, I was offered a turmeric ginger tea of my choice, which was such a thoughtful touch. The owner also came over and was so welcoming, inclusive, and excited to share details about everything they offer. She shared that her vision is to build community, and that truly warmed my heart. She even introduced me to their pillow room, which was absolute heaven. I truly cannot say enough about this little slice of heaven. They absolutely have a customer for life! I am completely floored by this space and cannot wait to come back.

THIS REVIEW IS BASED SOLELY ON THEIR ANNIVERSARY GATHERING! My sister recommended this place to me…read morebecause she goes every other month. I thought I'd try it out. However, getting an appointment is hard because they are booked (great for them!) It happened to be their One year anniversary and they threw a shindig! I came for the event to experience the "vibe". The ambiance was very nice and the aesthetic felt like I was in Kim Kardashian's house. Everything is neutral and organic textures. The reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 was because the lobby area is tiny. It was super packed in there with maybe only 30 people (half being staff). They had a decent drink selection for it to be a skincare establishment. They provided snacks and offered memberships. Because I don't live in the area, I did not purchase a membership. I want to return and get an actual service done by them. Updated review will come soon.
