   I had a reservation and my entire party arrived five minutes before the time. Apparently having a reservation is a meaningless concept at this restaurant. We got seated 25 minutes after the reservation time. We had an event to go to and had to eat quickly with no time for dessert or coffee. I will not be back and I will not be recommending this restaurant. The hostess basically was that’s the way it goes. The waiter was fine and the food was good, but if you don’t honor a reservation, that spoils the entire experience.

   Had a reservation and waited an hour for a table - very crowded. Food was excellent & worth wait!

   We were there on a Saturday morning reservation for 4 at 11:15am. However it’s a more of a walk in first come first serve basis. We still waited for about an hour to get seated. However, the food and atmosphere was all great! So the wait was worth. Portions were large. Taste was great. Offers healthy choices and organic eggs. We ate comfortably.

   Wonderful service! Food came out quick which was perfect as we were going to a 7pm show across the street. Would absolutely come back again! Everything was delicious and the staff were very kind!

   the salad was so tasty, fresh and well dressed. The portion was big and full filling. On both tables around us, the food looked appetizing and very tasty. I did not notice unhappy clients. Worth visiting.
