I ate at Goldberg's for the first time ever a couple of hours ago. What an experience! For such a relatively small establishment, they really get packed on Sundays for lunch. I got there around 10:30 thinking I would beat the rush, and there was already a line for dine-in extending out the door. Very diverse crowd too, which was fun to watch and nice to see.

The food was okay. I was not disappointed, but I was not wow'ed either. Will likely try something different on the menu next time in hopes of finding a "favorite" item for future return visits. I had chicken n waffles.....good waffle, but chicken was a bit dark and overcooked. Just fried a bit too long. I saw biscuit beignets on a nearby table that looked tasty.....

My server was great though. With so much happening it was fun to sit back and people-watch while waiting for my food, and Richard was everywhere. I'd look up and he'd be helping seat someone. Then I'd look up again and he would be topping off drinks (his tables and others). Then I'd look up and he'd be helping to bus tables for reseating. Then next time he'd be running arms full of plates to several tables. The man can scoot. And although the whole place was extremely chaotic, he was always attentive in checking on me--my food was hot on arrival and my drink was never lower than half-full. And although he had an incredible sense of urgency he never seemed flustered. In a day and age where good service is increasingly hard to find--I appreciated his efforts for me and the other patrons.

I will be back. 👍🏻
