I saw the great reviews and got really excited to go, but unfortunately the experience was not up to the hype for me or my friends. The only reason this place got a 2 instead of a 1 is that their pancakes are pretty bomb, but only one of us got pancakes.
Mainly i was disappointed because I got the Brie French Toast thinking it might have a little bit of syrup and some fruit and wanted to treat myself. What came out was akin to French Toast soup were the soup was syrup and a mismatch of soggy fruit and nuts. It didnt look appealing at all and everyone at my table agreed. I apologized and asked for them to take it back since that is not what I thought the order would be. I asked for regular French Toast instead. The waiter came back and asked me again if I did not want it because apparently I would be charged for it anyway even if I did not eat it.
I have never heard of this happening. Typically if the food is not to expectations you are able to get another order or they take half off or something, but instead I got charged almost 15 dollars for French Toast soup that I couldnt convince anyone to eat afterwards so I ended up throwing it away.
My french toast order that came out next was very flavorless and not well cooked and I could hear the waitstaff and cooks laughing at me from the back and I was trying really hard to be nice about the situation.
My advice: Just get...

We ended up leaving right before ordering after some kid with dark hair just abruptly came to our table to tell me "you can't have a drink in here, you need to take it outside or put it on the counter." Then he just left. He didn't even give me a chance to inform him I have a dairy allergy and had my drink because I couldn't drink anything there. That sucks, because of the rude way he spoke to us (if he's the manager, then yikes 😬). As a result, The Shed has lost our business after years of living here, and we are also telling our family members not to waste money on this place. It's a shame, this place used to be such a gem. We are just so sorry to our server, as she seemed very nice. We would have tipped very...
Read moreThis is a very popular restaurant. I went there for the first time for lunch with a friend. I had looked up the menu on line beforehand and chose a chicken quesadilla. It's a pricey menu and I had envisioned a quesadilla oozing with cheese and big chunks of chicken in it. Sadly, I was disappointed. The food portions were ample. But the quesadilla was the same one that I have often eaten at other restaurants in town, sometimes for considerably less. It was good, but not the special one that my imagination had built for me. My friend had an omelet that was stuffed with mushrooms and other veggies which looked delicious. The decor did live up to its name. It is plain, but quite clean. We ate on the patio which was pleasant but suffers from noise from a busy street outside. I think you will enjoy lunch here with its varied menu and breakfast served all day, especially if you don't let your imagination run wild...
