    Outdoor patio seating

    Great space, open, airy, bright and fresh. Across the st from our hotel within the Jewish community center. Great bagels, latkes, and decent coffee at reasonable prices in a nice space.

    Counter, where you could order and view all the delicious baked goods
    Jay J.

    I'm really looking forward to going back for another try! You can order at the Counter or you could order from two tablets that are available so it does make it easy to order. The rugelach was delicious--flaky & light, with just the right amount of apricot preserves. The chai latte needs another shot; it wasn't quite hot enough, tasted a bit like flavored milk. expecting the cinnamon, cardamom, & ginger flavors, but they weren't quite there. I did buy Everything Chili Crisp, which is definitely a reason to return. You might wonder how you could mess up chili oil, but it's easy when you use low-quality chilies and oil. This was high-quality, from the chili flakes to the oil, which was smooth didn't leave a film in my mouth, with that delicious flavor. I'll definitely try & have another chai. I'm also thinking about trying the Popeye sandwich bagel, Nana's French toast, or classic smoked salmon. That will be the real test, especially since my grandfather had a smoked fish shop at the wharf, which makes me picky about smoked salmon. My Nana made fresh challah, and her special treat was making French toast with it. It's hard to find good food when it's your own culture being mixed when I go out feeling nostalgic want something that reminds me of different parts of my family standards are high Because I grew up eating the dishes, which makes you have a biased palate, which makes you more picky, not necessarily a good thing haha :) . But you never know if you don't try. I definitely will try again.I enjoyed the atmosphere openness. The setup where you could grab your food and sit down to work on your computer while getting your coffee or chai was great. It's definitely a place to check out and give it a try. I know I'm going back take-two too ;)

    Sesame Bagel, Scallion cream cheese, smashed avocado, tomato & Onion.

The first sign was literally a sign that said open until 3 am. The restaurant was empty on a Saturday afternoon. The decor had changed and the stove was not on. I was so caught up in being at "my spot " I ignored the "signs" no Don standing by the stove no aroma of food AT ALL. No bread with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Now on to the cafeteria/hospital/ jail food. I never been to jail but this is what I would assume it would look like and taste like it was straight garbage. No one was cooking at the stove I can only assume it was heated in the microwave . I ordered my go to from the past Chicken parmigiana which came with fettuccine . This was not the same comforting meal from years ago. The chicken was burnt around the edges, extremely thin slathered in what I assume was Hunts tomato sauce from a can. It had a dab of mozzarella. The fettuccine was slathered in can sauce too. There was ZERO seasoning . This was the equivalent to nursing home food. It's a disgrace to call this Italian food. Charging $23 dollars for nursing home food is wild. I would side-eye the "good reviews".

The iced Thai tea was well-balanced and not overwhelmingly sweet. The chicken waffle was also good--especially the chicken itself. It was lightly battered and crisp to perfection.

It's filled with meat and vegetables, so it's pretty hearty. The curry was so good and had just the right amount of spice. I would highly recommend the PaNang omelette.

The servers are so friendly, kind and hardworking. They truly know what exceptional customer service is about. The food was perfectly prepared and the presentation was so appealing, with the little touches of Thai hospitality. My first breakfast was the Meat Lover's Omelet with House Potatoes. Tasty and it really hit the spot. Great coffee too! Dinner consisted of a flavorful beef Mussamun chili dish. Awesomely tender beef in a savory sauce. A Stella Artois worked well for my drink. My second breakfast was a Belgian Waffle with Chicken Apple Sausage and Scrambled Eggs. Perfection, with fruit accents of banana, blueberries, strawberries and grapes. Thanks to the chefs and servers at Lapisara! I'm a big fan now.

A charming little bistro inspired by the Marlowe cows, I'm assuming, managed to stun us with several memorable dishes. The warm deviled eggs were an excellent start. Savory yet delicate enough to not weigh us down right at the beginning of our meal. The horseradish aioli wasn't for me, but I can see its appeal for a certain audience. You give me a Calabrian chili sauce and it's guaranteed to make me happy and this shrimp with sweet corn was no exception. Again, light but a punchy flavor that was enjoyable. I could go on and on about the different dishes we tried but the real standout of the night was the pork tenderloin with chorizo and peaches. The sweetness from the peaches somehow managed to enhance the flavor of the chorizo. This dish gives you a bold, savory and sweet bite all together but still won't have you feeling super heavy. The portion size is perfect. Im hoping to return soon for another exquisite meal.

This time, we came on a weekday around 1:30 PM and waited about 30 minutes. Fair warning: expect a wait regardless! There are no online or app reservations--you'll need to show up in person and have the host add you to the waitlist. Based on our two visits, coming on a weekday and later in the day seems much more manageable. Both of us ordered The Plow with the house-made pork sausage, which comes with eggs, Plow potatoes, and lemon ricotta pancakes. Such a satisfying meal! The house-made pork sausage patties were juicy and packed with flavor. The Plow potatoes tasted fresh and were crispy, crunchy, and rustic. The lemon ricotta pancakes were a great way to finish the meal--after all the savory flavors from the eggs, potatoes, and sausage, the pancakes with maple syrup were the perfect sweet ending. We also both got the cold brew with oat milk. Strong and really good--exactly how we like our cold brew! Service: Great! Everyone was friendly and attentive, and they checked in on us frequently even though the restaurant was busy. Ambiance: Plow is a relatively small restaurant, but it still feels clean, spacious, and bright. There's both indoor and outdoor seating. The bathroom was also very clean, but just a heads-up that there's only one restroom for the entire restaurant, so you may have to wait. Overall, 5/5! We've enjoyed Plow both times we've visited. The wait can definitely be long, but the food and service make it worth it. Come hungry, plan for a wait, and get The Plow with the house-made pork sausage!
