My family and I just went here for lunch, and it was not a good experience. Most of my complaint is about the service, and the food wasn't good enough to overlook it - I'd probably give the food 3 stars by itself.
We arrived and were seated at a large booth with our menus. Then, we waited for someone to take our drink orders, and waited, asked for help, and waited, asked for help, and waited some more. After about 15 minutes, the third person we asked actually helped us and directed a waitress to our table to take our order. She finally brought us some water, and the first salad arrived for our daughter. Alas, no silverware, so we searched for our waitress. We couldn't find her, so asked someone else for help, and waited. This time, after waiting another 5 -10 minutes, the second person we asked (when we'd given up on the first) brought us napkins and silverware.
Onto the food (once we were able to eat it):
-Steak frites - fine but nothing special; much better version at Mussel Bar down the street. My daughter got the Chipotle reduction on the side, and we were glad she did, as it tasted more like Mexican black beans than anything else.
-kids waffle - probably my favorite thing, especially for the very reasonable price, but again nothing special in the way of flavor, and it needed a little salt. Also, the whipped cream needed more sweetness/flavor and the maple syrup was fake.
-harvest salad - my wife really liked this one. I didn't try it, but it looked appetizing
-patty melt and fries - the melt was OK, but needed more thousand island (couldn't find the waitress to ask for more), and some of my caramelized onions were pretty raw; also, the bread was a little burnt in some places, imparting an unpleasant bitter flavor. Fries were good and crispy. Everything needed more seasoning.
Mini chocolate pie - we shared this for dessert. Again, it was just Ok. The chocolate filling was good, but there was far too little of it, and it was not distributed throughout evenly, so some pieces had a lot, while other pieces were all whipped cream. Also, the crust was bland and very thick (1/2 inch in some places). Wouldn't order again.
