Meh, not impressed. We arrived to a 2/3 full restaurant, was directed to seat ourselves. We chose a table and started to wait. A group of four came in after us, and were immediately given menus, while we waited for ours. We waited 10 or so minutes, before I approached staff at the bar and asked for two menus. I would have thought this would trigger some sort of action on wait staff to come and take our order a few minutes after we put our menus down…sadly, it did not. We waited another five or so minutes(the restaurant is emptying out at this point, so there were not a lot of people to wait on.). I decided to confirm that someone would come to the table vs us going to an order station and was told that someone would come to us. So, we waited several minutes more. We decided that we would go somewhere else when I noticed the waitress for our area bussing a table in an empty section on the other side of the restaurant. We started to stand up and she came over to our table and asked with a bit of attitude if we were ordering or leaving. We decided to stay and ordered. For as slow as the restaurant had become in the time we’d been waiting, the food came out a bit slowly. (Pro tip…salads just don’t work in tiny little bowls, so hard to eat.). Will we come again? Maybe, but we’ll wait a while for staff to be fully trained and a bit...

$15-$20 for your burger, sandwich or wrap and freezer fries. The smash burger was pretty good, the breakfast burrito was excellent, the ginger chicken wrap was really soggy and lacked flavor. Fries were not special, but not bad either. I had the iced matcha latte on their specials menu and it was nice.

The coffee is ok, but I think the staff is still figuring out many of the drinks. Would like to see a kid “coffee” item or two with smaller cups and lower prices.

Staff was fine, not particularly efficient and didn’t seem to know the menu or coffee. But they weren’t rude, so that counts for something.

It’s a very new spot that’s pretty busy with lots of people trying it out. It’s not super quick service. For 2 people, we waited about 45 min for one of our drinks and 30 min for our food. We were there about 1 hour total so it’s not a quick bite if you’re looking for that.

Overall, we will try it again sometime down the road to see if some of the kinks will be worked out, but it’s a lot more expensive than I anticipated for a basic burger and fries so it won’t be a regular spot for us unfortunately. Our total was $56 for lunch for 2 including...
