No stars bc of host! 4 of us walked in on evening of June 23, 2023, host immediately tried to deny us table by saying g she doesn't know when she can seat us (hubby looked around, there were plenty of tables btw) she asks if we wanted to be seated at the bar and can let us know when a table opens up. We nicely ask how long might the wait might be she advises no idea, ok fair, so we repeated if we sit at the bar she will let us know when a table opens up she says "I can't seat you at the next available table if there will be people waiting for the table" we were all so confused, when that was the option she just provided to us, we asked multiple times which she really meant and it seems she will not give us a table, I even asked if a reservation was mandatory, and she obviously only gave us vague answers that walk-in was also ok. Waste of time, if only she was just honest and clear about what she really meant, I'm seriously still confused about this whole ordeal. We left and went to Duke's instead, better place and I'm so glad we did!! Go to Dukes, boycott Cest What (what that host only knows).

**REPLY TO THE BUSINESS' RESPONSE: except your host seemed confused and looked like they didn't want to accommodate us at all. We had no interest in how long we were going to sit in the bar only the guarantee we could get a table once something became available, simply asked only to see her intentions. You need...

Came in a group of five for 2pm on a Saturday, it wasn't very busy at all so the atmosphere and service was understandably low energy. Coffee wasn't a menu item, but I had asked if they had any to serve, since there was coffee included in the warm drinks. They said yes, and the coffee that was served looked suspiciously see through and tasted extremely sour and spoiled. I wouldn't be surprised if this was the coffee left in the pot from the night before. I couldn't finish it, and I regret not sending it back because it ended up being $4.

We started off with appetizers, which were good for the most part, shocking at worst when it came to the charcuterie plate. It looked really unappetizing, and really confusing. I wish I had taken a picture, honestly. For something called the C'estcuterie I'd have expected something like a full charcuterie with a specialty spin. There was only one cheese, blue cheese, a scoop of pickled vegetables, and it was served with slices of toast. There was only one option for meat, which tasted fine but probably wasn't prepared in-house. I was turned off from ordering any more menu items. My friends who had ordered main menu items said the food was fine. It may have just been a bad day and bad time for a pub, but from my experience I wouldn't ever want to chance ordering from here again. Left a bad taste in my mouth for the money...
