We’ve eaten at this restaurant multiple times, and every experience has been amazing. The atmosphere is welcoming and relaxing, the customer service is always top-tier, and the food and drinks are consistently delicious. You can tell they truly care about their guests. We have absolutely no complaints. This is a great place to grab lunch or enjoy a nice dinner date. Highly recommend if you’re in Columbia! We’ve completed our mission of 100 restaurants last year and working to visit 100 different ones this year! Follow me here for more reviews and photos!!!

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Nice building with interesting style inside and out. There is an odd use of stairs. The stairs at the entrance are odd enough that they have watch your step posted for patrons entering and exiting. There is another set of stairs between the main dining room/bar and the restrooms. The food wasn't bad, it just wasn't great. Menu is on the small side, as far as selection. The fried crab claws, to me, were more work than they were worth and one of the best bites was the rogue shrimp that had apparently made it's way into the fry basket. Steak Calibowl was ok, the rice was overcooked or too much liquid was used. The croissant bread pudding was good (sharing portion). I did enjoy the pineapple jalapeno margarita, nice and spicy. Not the servers' fault but my original server was cut so I was turned over to another between appetizer and entree. Then watched my original server running around still doing side work when I left.

Met here for dinner and glad we did! It’s built inside of an old union train station and is a beautiful space to enjoy! Nye was our serve and very nice! She took good care of us during our whole visit. The food was outstanding! I’m not a crescent roll guy, but the honey crescent rolls are a good start and come with all salads if you get one! I had the ribeye with a baked potato and the ribeye needed nothing! I’d rank it in the top 5 steaks I’ve had. Lots of good options to choose from on the menu as well! We will certainly be back!
