We had reservations for a birthday lunch and because we had the option to say it was a birthday celebration thought they would acknowledge it in some way. I had higher expectations. The service was mediocre, our server got the birthday persons drink order wrong twice and she wasn’t even apologetic. We will not return.

I ordered the trout. Received a very tiny piece of trout with a nice sauce sitting atop a tiny bit of greens. I had to ask twice for a roll. I was almost as hungry when I walked out as I was when I walked in. For $22 plus, they could have at least added some rice or a vegetable. Very disappointing.

It's a rare cafe that can create so many elegant vegetable forward dishes as well as an elevated burger, along with a spot on wine list and tasty cocktails.
