We got the asian chicken salad, Vegan Banh Mi and a side of their Spicy Curried Couscous. Service was incredibly friendly and when ordering, they explained the menu very well. Our original selection turned out to not be available, and they came by to our table and gave us free cookies while they made something else for us. They went above and beyond! The food was quickly prepared and delicious!

I had an issue with my free entree loading for switching my favorite location and Emma helped me right away, checking in while we were in line. We showed up around 1pm the second day they were open and with ~15 staff staying busy, the line moved quickly and we still found a spot on the spacious patio and our orders came out exactly as we'd asked for--perfect experience for a new biz! People were quick to flip and move tables so prime outdoor seating was clean and available. Our sandwiches were at least as good while the chicken parm dip was even better than we've had at other locations. The ginger cookie and lemonade were also consistent...the variety and flavor combinations in one place for fresh food has yet to be matched for me. Thanks for moving closer, we are already regulars.

I really dig this place - been a handful of times, both the NA and boozy cocktails are well done…read more Bar staff is knowledgable with a very well equipped bar - on a recent visit my wife didn't see anything that caught her mood and they happily made something else for her. Food has always been good, from apps to mains. I don't think I've had a burger here, yet...most recently I had the fried chicken, which had been well marinated and cooked - juicy, flavorful, plentiful. Vibe is always chill, here. Now that the weather's warming up, outdoor seating is available. I usually make a reservation, but my sense is for a couple one could almost always walk in without a rez and get seated quickly. One of my favorite east-side places...if it was a little closer to me I'd be there all the time!

I wasn't feeling like a big entree but I put together a fun little meal out of their falafel bites and tomato soup- both were really good. I appreciated that the service folks made sure I got some extra toasted bread with my soup. A coworker got the buttermilk fried chicken and it was an impressive serving. Also loved the extensive selection of whiskey, cocktails, and non alcoholic cocktails. Non alcoholic options really allow anyone to relax with a drink. But not me I had woodinville rye whiskey because it's a local fav. OH! They sell hotdogs here and that's awesome cause it's hard to find a good hotdog place- and these hotdogs are made of freakin waygu beef.

Located on the ground floor of an apartment building, parking can be challenging unless you find a spot on the street or don't mind walking from a public lot. Inside, seating is pretty plentiful with some tables in the center, along the windows, and in a more secluded section behind the coffee counter. Two of us came in to grab some pastries and coffee around 11:00A. We loaded up our tray and headed to the counter where we also requested a slice of the tiramisu from their refrigerated case, and ordered our coffees. + CHOCOLATE SUPREME CROISSANT ($6.59) - This round croissant was filled with chocolate custard cream, partially dipped in chocolate and topped with crisp chocolate pearls. The croissant was light but had no problem holding up to the rich custard which reminded me of a chocolate pudding. I really enjoyed this one! + COFFEE CROISSANT DONUT ($5.99) - When I picked this up, I noticed it had some weight! The cronut was filled generously with coffee custard which was smooth and not too sweet. All the sweetness really came from sugary coffee icing on top. Even though the coffee flavor wasn't very bold and tasted more like instant coffee to me, I'd still recommend. The pastry was flaky and had light layers too. + TIRAMISU CAKE SLICE ($9.25) - Eh, it was just okay. The cake itself didn't have a robust coffee flavor and the layer of mascarpone was way sweeter than anticipated, closer to a cream cheese frosting. To me, this isn't reminiscent of a tiramisu and for the price, I would have expected a larger slice. Others in my family ate the remaining pastries that we purchased (we didn't share, haha), so here are their quick thoughts: + RASPBERRY ALMOND CROISSANT ($6.39) - Advertised as filled with both almond cream and raspberry preserves, but the almond cream was extremely subtle, so raspberry was the dominant flavor. + ALMOND PASTRY ($4.99) - The pastry could have used more almond filling, and it should be spread out more out towards the edges. It had a delightful almond flavor though. + CHOUX CREAM BREAD ($3.79) - This was as expected, a simple soft bread filled with custard cream. + CROISSANT DONUT ($5.99) - A cronut filled with custard cream and topped with lemon icing. It had good flavor! + SWEET RICE DONUT ($3.79) - A chewy rice donut rolled in sugar and filled with red bean. Eat it the same day, while the dough is still soft. The filling did not have the sweetness that you'd expect with a red bean paste... it tasted like just mashed red beans and was pretty plain. We wouldn't select it again. For my coffee, I kept things simple with a decaf ICED VANILLA LATTE ($5.42, 16 oz.). They serve the Lavazza brand, so I had a feeling it would be good. The coffee was very smooth, had a good balance of vanilla flavor and they accommodated my request for light ice well. They have a rewards program (1 point per $1), although points do expire after 180 days. The pricing of the pastries is on par with what I expected, but the cost of cake slices is steep at almost $10 each, so it's a better value just to order a full cake. I'm sure I'll be back again to try more of their pastries... perhaps a savory one next time!

Oooooh, I really want to love this place more than I did…read more I do like the really neat warehouse feel when walking in for ordering. I do feel that for the weather and time of year maybe close out some of the doors or windows so it's not as chilly inside? The options are... ok? I would love to see a little more variety but I did come here for breakfast so I'm going to review the breakfast bagels. The bagels themselves are ok? I have no real complaints for this style of bagels and the different varieties are pretty standard. I took my order to go and by the time I got home it was a little cold but that's not taking a points off here. My complaint here is the bagel just seems, underwhelming. The filling just seem wimpy and I got more bagel than a balanced breakfast bagel. It's really disappointing to be eating a lot of bagels when I wanted a balance. Finally, this would all be ok if the price wasn't so high. Seriously it is a bagel filled with the most basic ingredients. The new hey bagel place that has a line out the door is cheaper for bagels.

The only bad was the onion ring upgrade was only 4 rings or 75cents each. If you read other reviews I'm an onion ring snob. These were ok not worth 75cents each.

I tend to let my wife order for me so she can scratch all the craving itches she might have during our meal here. I had one gripe about my meal. I upgraded to onion rings to my order. My order included four onion rights. Compared to the amount of fries my wife got with her meal, I thought the amount of onions rings in my order was on the side of too few. Oh wells. We will still continue to come here regardless of the amount of onions included in the meal.
