The bar is perfect for a pre-dinner drink. The bartenders really know their stuff and were happy to chat about their specialty cocktails.

The vibe is definitely upscale but not stuffy, which I liked. It got pretty loud when it filled up, but our server was super on top of things and checked in just the right amount.

Service was a little slow, but the food came out hot and fresh. The grilled octopus was tender, and the pasta had a nice al dente bite. That made the wait okay.

We had a family gathering here last weekend. I really appreciate how fresh the ingredients are in their salads. The greens were crisp, and the grilled chicken was perfectly seasoned. It felt like a healthy, satisfying meal.

The cocktails were a bit underwhelming, honestly. I stuck with the local beers on tap instead. The food was solid, but the drinks just didn&#39;t match up.

Been coming here since I was a kid. That egg and olive sandwich is still the one I compare all others to. The place just feels the same, in the best way.

The patio is really lovely, especially on a summer evening. The tables are spaced nicely so it doesn&#39;t feel crowded. It&#39;s a very comfortable spot to unwind.

The Cubby panini was good, but the real star was the warm orzo side. So creamy and the cheese tasted really fresh.

The bar area is so pretty and feels fancy. Grabbed a quick drink there, and it&#39;s definitely a spot I&#39;d come back to for a proper dinner date.

Our waitress really knew the menu. I asked about a couple of dishes and her suggestions were spot on. She explained everything without rushing us. That kind of attentive service makes a difference.

Great spot for a party! The bartender MJ really knows his stuff, and the pulled pork paired nicely with a bold red.

Perfect for a quick lunch. Got the fried cauliflower and arancini. The cauliflower was surprisingly light, not greasy at all. Came out fast, which I appreciate. Just what I needed between meetings.

Had a private event in their Atrium room. The space itself is beautiful, didn&#39;t need much extra decor. Staff handled everything well, kept it all moving.

Joel the owner is so nice, really made our group feel welcome. The duck tacos were delicious, and the flatbread with truffle oil was a hit. Good portions for the price, we shared a bottle of wine and had a great time catching up.

The corn cr&egrave;me br&ucirc;l&eacute;e was the star for me. That sweet, creamy custard with the crackly top? Totally unexpected and so good. I&#39;d go back just for that side dish.

The scallops were so tender. But that red wine and shallot butter with the bread? That was the star for me. A little sweet, a little savory. Just a really nice touch.

Tried their dining week menu, the $35 three-course deal. The mini antipasto with that Italian dressing was a nice little kick-off. Solid for the price.

Been coming here for years. The portions are still huge, and honestly, the price is right for what you get. It&#39;s my go-to when I just want a solid, filling meal without thinking about it. Never lets me down on that front.

The bar selection is solid, but the drinks are a bit pricey for the portion size.

The tonkotsu ramen was a pleasant surprise. Broth had a nice depth, not too heavy. Noodles were cooked just right. Bento was decent, but that ramen is what I&rsquo;d go back for.

First time here, had the maple-glazed salmon. It was cooked just right, not dry at all. The cauliflower wings were a solid appetizer too. My buddy liked his pasta. I&#39;ll be back.

Tessa at the back bar was on point with her recommendations. Food was good, and the bill was reasonable. Perfect for a pre-show stop.

The lake view from the room was stunning, especially in the morning. Breakfast was included, which was nice. The croissant was decent, but honestly, for the room rate, I expected a bit more from the food spread.

Nice quiet spot even when it&#39;s full. Got the fish and chips, came out quick. Exactly what I needed for a quick lunch break.

The staff handled the lunch rush really well. Their teamwork was impressive, and they kept a positive vibe.

The gluten-free pasta options were a lifesaver for my sister. Menu was clearly marked, made ordering easy. Her dish came out looking just like the regular pasta, and she had no issues after. Really appreciate the care they took with that.

Love the vibe here. The apple pie milkshake is a fun twist, and they have boozy ones too. Live music on weekends makes it feel really lively, even if it gets a bit loud.
