Ordering System
Pros:
"You order and pay on your phone."
"It starts with the virtual menu that you access by scanning a QR code."
"The restaurant had a very quirky ordering system where you have to order thru the app even though there is a waitress that's there to ensure the order is correct."
Cons:
"The whole method of order (the irony) and service is completely maddening."
"The only thing that felt a little weird was paying the tip even before the food arrives because we generally tip based on the service and food."
"We had to order via an app, pay ahead, tip in advance, and we basically did all the work."
"Everything was lovely as always but I am still not a fan of ordering electronically."
Food Quality
Pros:
"The food here is finger lickin, gum smacking delicious."
"The food was so fresh and delicious, and such an innovative menu selection!"
"The food was INCREDIBLE. I mean really, really good."
"The Dumbledore was delicious - the roasted tomatoes, eggs and bacon were so well seasoned and the vinaigrette was amazing."
"Food and drinks were absolutely delicious."
"The freshness is evident in every bite."
"All items were absolutely delicious and packed with flavor."
Cons:
"But overall it was quite disappointing."
"The food wasn't even all that to put up with that rude manner."
"The spice on the gravy was just too much. Too many flavors at once."
"The pancakes were tasty, but stiff and not fluffy at all."
"The food is ok. They may be trying to hard. Nothing on the menu should take 40 minutes."
"The chicken tikka masala was good except for the fact that Hing in it was a bit strong - it would taste way better without it."
Service
Pros:
"Staff was super friendly and their coffee is exceptional!"
"The staff complimented the meal with their great energy and friendliness."
"Customer service is great."
"The atmosphere is great and the staff is very accommodating and attentive."
"The staff was super cool and attentive."
"The service is fantastic, from Sheldon, the barista/owner, whose coffee art is only rivaled by the drinks' premium taste to Sheldon's mom who greets and seats everyone, to chef Samantha who doesn't compromise taste for speed."
"The service was exceptional."
Cons:
"Could use a customer service lesson."
"Customer service is great however it’s slightly slow…"
"To conclude, I wouldn't recommend this place at all due to horrible customer service and excessive wait times."
"Sides were extra so we ended up spending way too much time at a place, squashed into a corner, at a teeny table, for food that was expensive and just ok."
"Service was very slow (waited 30+ mins to eat & get coffees, other tables also)."
"Servers came across as pretentious and easily bothered."
"The lady in front was extremely rude to her and bluntly told her 'the kitchen is closed and we are not taking any order!'"
Ambiance
Pros:
"The ambiance is cozy and inviting, making it a great spot to catch up with friends over breakfast."
"It's the most marvelous spot to get coffee and a meal. The team is warm, friendly and incredibly welcoming."
"Really cozy place!!!"
"The venue is beautifully designed and perfect for either a quick bite or a cute date."
"The decor is very eclectic and inviting."
"Such a cute place."
"The entire environment is upscale and friendly (which is a rare combination)."
Cons:
"It gets really LOUD. The acoustics in that room really reverberates dialogue."
"September 14th Thursday night they have whatever music event on the street from 6 to 10:30 p.m. It is so loud and disturbing!"
"The place is really small, and always high volume of traffic on the weekends."
"The place was pretty loud with music and the general hustle bustle of a busy place, so not necessarily great for babies who are sensitive to loud places."
"Minor thing but the decor, especially, the frames were a little confusing to me and i didnt find it so cohesive."
Wait Times
Pros:
"We enjoyed every moment of it and we’ll definitely go back again."
"Everything is made fresh when you order it so it can take a while. But the wait is worth it."
"Good things are worth the wait."
"When the food, the service and the vibes are this good...you will completely forget the wait."
Cons:
"Since they make everything fresh, you might have to wait a bit longer for your order."
"We waited about an hour between having to reserve and to wait for seating, and for our food to come to our table."
"We were seated in about 10-15 mins but given a warning that our food would take 30-45 mins to arrive since the kitchen was swamped."
"Then we waited 20 mins for our beverages and 45 mins for our food."
"We had to wait more than one hour for the food."
"We're still waiting on our drinks and food is nowhere to be seen."
