Food was good. Service a little slow with their new system for taking orders.

Great food and good service. The sweet potato fries with marshmallow dip is basically your dessert. ? Lots of great sandwich, salad, and soup options.

Awesome place. Love eating in the garden !!! I feel transported. The apricot sandwich delicious. The tortilla soup yummyyy. And awesome service by. Eduardo

Excellent food and service!Great atmosphere! If you want a relaxing place to go, this is a great option.

I ordered to go and my order was all messed up, all the food was cold and didn't even have flavor. Don't get me started on the service ppl there are so rude and will get mad when you ask them to fix your order.

My party left without eating. We came for lunch during the week. I ordered the adult grilled cheese. It was served cold with unbuttered and untoasted bread. When I brought this to the waiters attention, he said he would have to talk to the manager to see what to do. Weird but whatever. He returned and said they would remake my food and the cold food from another person in my party. While waiting for our remakes, we noticed that another take has been seated, ordered, received their appetizer and entre and finished eating in the time between us finishing our appetizer and getting our cold food. Our server was nowhere to be found. We could see the manager sitting at the counter on his computer surrounded by plates needing to be served but he seemed unconcerned. We decided not to wait. As we left, we passed the manager who seemed not to acknowledge us. He did tell the server not charge us. That's nice but I would have gladly paid for my drink and the meal from the rest of our party if he had spoken to us directly. One star because the soup was okay.PS As we were making a purchase in the gift shop, we witnessed our returned food being put in Togo boxes. I'm not sure who it was going to but it was not us.

My party and I left still hungry. We came for lunch during the week. One person in my party ordered a grilled cheese that was niether grilled or cheesy. The other person in my party ordered a pastrami sandwich which they did not eat because it was luke warm and not very good. I also ordered a hot sandwich and it was also luke warm. It took about 45 minutes for our sandwiches to come out of the kitchen. The grilled cheese and I sent our sandwiches back, however after waiting another 20 minutes for the new sandwiches to come out, we decided to leave. As we were leaving, the manager was sitting at the counter with the food waiting to be served and chose not acknowledge us or the situation. Clearly, the poor quality of service and food came directly from the manager who seemed unconcerned and was putting our returned food in a to-go box as we left.

We went for lunch with friends. While the food is good, recommend this place for the ambiance. I generally get the Rueben sandwich or their soup. Desert this time was the key lime pie; it was frozen so gets a downgrade on quality. Waiters were friendly but not particularly speedy. In particular, they didn't manage to get coffee to us in a timely manner, both in the beginning and refills. This is not my general experience so it may just have been the day.What we really go for is the patio ambiance. It is a great place to hang out with friends. Do bring a hat if you are doing the patio experience as the sun can sneak through the branches and hit you in the eyes.There is indoor dining as well.

My husband and I stopped here for lunch recently on a Friday. The restaurant is situated in a cute location surrounded by antique shops and other small businesses. When looking at their website, I got the impression that they cater to people who need gluten-free options. They have a number of salad options but that’s about it for GF. We thought maybe the pasta or sandwich bread would be GF. Overall, we enjoyed our lunch but didn’t think the food was special in any way. It’s a cute atmosphere, though, and I would recommend people try it for themselves.

Wow. Wat a great place. Another El Paso best kept secret. It had been years since my last visit. The outdoor Garden Dinning area was perfect, decorated well, nice water fixture, great plants just extremely cozy. Kinda forgot I was in El Paso. Food was great the presentation was even better. I had the Rib Eye it was serve red with well seasoned Asparagus and a corn and green Chile Casserole which was amazing. My guest had the salmon which was great too. The best homemade brownies EVER. Can’t wait to return for lunch. The lunch looks great. Excellent service. Will be back over and over. Great place for a private function as well.
