We ate lunch and breakfast here, it was delicious! The food was flavorful and fulfilling. Aaron was our server both times. He was phenomenal and attentive. He went beyond service and showed hospitality. At the end of our breakfast, there was someone he knew with the cutest dog and said we can take the kids over there to say hi to the dog! The kids were excited.

I enjoyed the food here. It was very simple yet elegant and tasty. They had really food iced tea too. One thing that stood out was their coffee shop is attached to the restaurant. They serve delicious coffee and amazing fresh pastries. The vibe here was very tranquil and modern. Delicious food. Would definitely recommend for a nice meal. Service was kind.

Had a great breakfast here with Aaron as our server.
Quick, efficient, made solid recommendations. All our food was tasty and well prepared. Steak and eggs was prepared perfectly. Burritos and custom sandwich were good sized and had great flavor. Some in our group enjoyed the smoothies and some special coffees.

Service was excellent, the food was great (and cocktails were much stronger than other restaurants )
I ordered Salt& Pepper Salmon, it was juicy inside and really liked the side dishes (cauliflower rice and the asparagus)
