We each had a different recipe of salmon, both delicious and perfectly cooked—unusually large pieces of fish. I had a large bowl of tasty lentil soup for $5.00! Entrees were surprisingly inexpensive. Pleasant service.

I've gone here several times and have tried a lot of things on the menu such as the lamb burger. They add a garlic aioli to it which is delicious. I love their fries. They are usually made crispy the way I like them. I've had their grilled cheese with smoked gouda and caramelized onions which was really good as well. They have other variations as well. I've had their falafel wrap which is really tasty too. I have tried the Middle Eastern breakfast with 2 eggs your choice (I got scrambled), grilled halloumi (so good), labneh (a thick yogurt), hummus, pita and an Israeli salad (chopped cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, pepers, parsley, lemon, olive oil my fave substitute if I want to be good and not have fries). It was really delicious and filling, but the kind where you feel satisfied, not overly full and gross. The most recent thing I've tried is the spicy fish sandwich. I always wanted to try it. With fried tilapia, chipotle mayo, hot sauce, lettuce, tomato, onion and a pickle it sounded delicious. It was pretty good, but not my favorite. My favorite thing on the menu is the cheddar waffle with chicken schnitzel. It's super indulgent, but so damn tasty. Chicken and waffles is one of my fave dishes and they execute it well. The savory and sweet waffle with the fried chicken cutlet and the spicy syrup it comes with all come together in a giant flavor explosion. I recommend giving it a try. The service is always pretty good as well. During lunch time there's generally one server so if it's busy there might be a little wait for additional things you may need, however the server is usually attentive. There is one time the service was spectacular. I can't recall the server's name, but he was so sweet and went above and beyond. I've never had bad service here though which is good. They also apparently have brunch , but I've actually never taken advantage of their weekend brunch deal. For $25 you get unlimited mimosas which includes a brunch menu item. This is a great deal since most places charge a fee for unlimited brunch drinks in addition to the purchase of a menu item. I have only come here for lunch. Definitely give this place a try.

Great food, fast service. Very berry smooth was da bomb

Super cozy and pleasant. Their omelettes are so satisfying. Best chai latte ever!
