    We are regulars at Ponti and are never disappointed. Today we had the Butternut Squash soup, Grilled Cheese, and Blended Burger. All great. Great service even though they were quite busy.

    My $38 scallop and leeks meal came with a paltry amount of too spicy leeks. The “greens” they substituted for Brussel sprouts could have fit in the hand of an infant - truly, just two mouths full! I was too in shock to send it back, and I should have. The three scallops were fine. My husband’s tempeh Ruben defined “meh” and was the worst I’ve ever tasted!…very disappointing reservation!
