We ordered a cheeseburger and a steak wrap. They came with fries that had a burnt and overly salty taste. The cheeseburger was completely cold. The bun was cold and the patty was cold. It was not warm at all. The wrap was not good either, it tasted dry. I am honestly surprised this place has so many good reviews because the food was absolutely not tasty. The service was friendly and the atmosphere was nice, and that is it. It is definitely not a place worth coming back to.

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.

I ordered the blackened salmon with sides of parmesan topped mushrooms and mac n cheese. The salmon and mushrooms were delicious and the mac n cheese was acceptable. It's a little expensive but so is everywhere nowadays. I can tell the quality of the ingredients is high. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead if 5 for service is that it took about 25 minutes for my food to come out when it wasn't busy. When it's in my budget I'll be back.
