Lots of choices!

We have…read moreloved every option we have tried, but they tend to run out of their most popular in like the first 30 mins of the day. We love this place. It's not filled with bells and whistles and the most modern decor. They don't need that. What attracts a lot of people to this place is the delicious food and the great service. I cannot stress that enough. The soups are phenomenal here and they are filled with stuff inside. You're not going to get that watery type soup. You're getting that chunky chunky chunky soup that makes you wonder why you're so full all of a sudden. The people work hard here and they are running around. They make sure you're doing alright. This is a true "mom and pop" type of shop that is worth it - multiple visits. I can see this place getting more popular than the space can handle. Perhaps they will expand elsewhere, but they deserve that success.

Looking forward to returning and their ever changing menu.

Good amount of seating. The food, I had gotten their steak sandwich, hesitant not sure if the meat would be tender or the portion would've been worth while, however, it exceeded my expectations! The meat was tender and easy to just bite through and eat! Good flavor and something I'd totally go back for! 4/5! The wings were decent, flavor was good, but too wet for my personal preference, and I prefer a bit more of a crunch with my wings not really a grilled taste but decent, prob wouldn't order again. 3/5

This was Tulip Grill before so I don't know what it looks like now since the hubby picked up our order. Parking is not too bad but be aware that it can get busy due to DD, Lantern Sushi & Roy's are nearby. They notified my hubby that they needed 5 more minutes to get all our order cooked, and put together. Minor comment- though I like the flavor both green and tamarind sauces were a little thin. I like a thicker sauce for dipping. Also the fries though well-seasoned could be crunchier. Still highly recommend trying them out. I have two more meals from my platter.

Everything on the menu is packing a fairly hefty punch of flavor, and the servings are generous. There was a short line when I arrived, but the counter-style service moved pretty quickly and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Sometimes counter-style is surly and brusque; not here. The staff go out of their way to make sure that you get all the toppings you might enjoy. As a first-time customer, I appreciated that. The shop itself is small with some seating but nobody was dining in; this was not because it's not popular (see the aforementioned line), I think they're just primarily geared towards takeout. I'll definitely be back, especially if I'm in the neighborhood anyway.

There are a few tables out front, but we were lucky enough to snag the single two‑seat table inside, which added to the charm. We shared the muffuletta, served on a soft hoagie roll and layered with Juliet's homemade tapenade. It was excellent--bright, briny, and beautifully balanced. You can tell everything here is crafted with intention. A wonderful stop for anyone who loves authentic Italian flavors and a genuinely inviting atmosphere.

The best thing they have to offer is their coffee and drinks. They're very good and consistent. I am not a fan of their baked goods or breakfast sandwiches. The breakfast sandwiches are served in warm bagels (not toasted) and the bacon seems like pre-cooked bacon a the egg is also ore-cooked and steamed. Very disappointed not getting fresh eggs and bacon. Would not recommend their breakfast sandwiches when there are far better options in the area. The baked goods were okay, but there are better options locally.
