    Food is always great. Prices are so expensive but I understand inflation is a real thing. The restaurant added a 4% living wage to the check which I thought had been outlawed (or banned) but I guess not?!?!

    Ordered the polenta fries as a starter. They were very good, the red sauce with it was delicious! Definitely require a fork for these however. Ordered the Fog Lifter pizza and Adult Mac and Cheese for our mains. Both were excellent. Will definitely come back

    Excellent service from beginning to end. Our waiter was superb. Food was heavenly as always. Always a special treat to celebrate occassions here. Disappointed though they don’t do the complimentary birthday desserts anymore. We ordered desserts but HOPR used to also do a fun little free birthday dessert for the birthday guests.

    We choose Street Social for every special occasion. The food is prepared with the utmost care and originality. My husband and I can always find several items on the menu that we love, even with one of us being a vegetarian. The owners who run this sweet restaurant are the chef and the main server who are a delight to know. Highly recommend!
