Great lunch spot in Lincoln Square for casual yet elevated fare. My go-to is the short rib sandwich, which has super tender beef. The salads are also crisp and bright, you can add a half portion to your meal for $6. The patio is lovely to sit on if you can snag a spot.
Remarkable service, on par with Michelin starred restaurant in terms of their staff providing an exceptional experience.Tremendous flatbreads, but you can’t miss with anything on the menu.Wash it down with any of their cocktails (tried em all… no shame, all awesome).Strong recommendation and this will be in our rotation of Lincoln Square spots for the foreseeable future.
Fresh and refreshing cocktails. The mushroom pasta with browned butter was spectacular. The tofu entree was cooked to a great texture but the sauce was lacking flavor. We also got the vanilla ice cream and chocolate chip cookie skillet for dessert which was the perfect way to end the meal!
I'm going back to this place as fast as humanly possible!! Food so good you would think Ratatouille made it under a chefs hat. Had several of their cocktails that didn't break the bank. They were packed so make reservations in advance. Worth it!!!
Very, very nice place in all ways except maybe one (will get to that).First off, easy to get to and easy to park if you're driving. Nice space with extremely nice folks staffing it. We sat facing the kitchen and it was clear that the work was serious but not angry.And the food that came out was excellent. 4/5 of us got pasta dishes, with the oddball doing a "soup & appetizer" thing. However, everyone at the table agreed that the standouts for the meal were the plates for the group that we got first (salt cod & bread, two vegetables) which sold the meal on their own.But that missing star needs explaining. To be fair, I'm older and so maybe I shouldn't go to these "casual hip" places that intentionally and reasonably are shooting for a younger crowd. I like friendly places with good food though so I will keep going back. The sound level though, well it bordered on "painful", enough that one of us had to go out onto the street just to get away from it for a bit (conversation suffered too). Not talking about the music, which was barely audible, but rather the din of people just having a good time. Additional sound dampening would go against the vibe that (I imagine anyway) they are going for so it would be unreasonable to expect, but I can wish. We will go back, I'm almost positive, but I expect we will wait for a table on the patio (which looked very chill) next time.And so an easy solid 4 stars, with a nod towards 5 if you can deal with the sonic assault.
I'll give it 5 because of London the waitress. She rocks. Food was good. I was visiting my daughter and London gave us the opportunity to sit and have conversation. I've been in the food industry and table turnover is important, so we stayed maybe 10 minutes after we we were given the bill, but were still respectful of taking up a table, but never felt rushed to get out. So the experience was worth it!
This is the only picture I took, the mushroom soup. The food was so wonderful, I didn't care about a pic and wanted to dig in instead. Ordered the Korean style wings and the generous size and portion was enough for two. We shared a sandwich and we were extremely satisfied. This place is a vibe. It is affordable, has attentive staff, and delicious food.
BLT, mushroom Soup, staff!
Best falafel I’ve ever had and I’m Middle Eastern! Every single dish had such complexity of flavors and was amazing. Wonderful service and atmosphere too. I loved the butternut squash salad so much too!
Was a little questionable about this place but it turned out to be a hidden gem that everyone else knew about apparently. Went on a Tuesday night and it was packed. It had some interesting options; tapas, small plates, pasta, flatbread pizza, salads and entrees like pork and Chicken, but also a burger. I had the burger, and I have to say, one of the best burgers I've had. Dimly lit, cozy, great place for a date. Dinner for two, appetizer, bottle of wine and dessert will be around $100. Great service, with an open air kitchen.
