- after wedding brunch, party of 30
We made a reservation here on a Saturday for our after wedding brunch and brought in 30 people with us. They couldn't have been more accommodating! We took up at least half the restaurant, and everyone hustled to take care of the group. The food was delicious, and the prices are reasonable. We are so appreciative!
- group lunch, party of 9
A large group (9) of us were made to feel welcome all afternoon. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting. And the food was wonderful. Among us, we ordered the Bijan burger, salmon, steak, breakfast plates with eggs, and calamari. Everyone was very delighted with their selections. And the vanilla cheesecake afterwards was smooth, rich and exquisite. (Well worth the calories!) Service was cheerful and attentive, but never intrusive. We all had a fantastic meal and a great experience at a perfectly reasonable price. Would definitely go back!
- weekend group brunch
We came on a Saturday at 11am with a group and had plenty of space, which was a nice surprise. Alexander and Thomasina took amazing care of us—they made us feel right at home and kept the service flowing. The custom drinks they made were incredible—easily the highlight of the experience. Pancakes were solid, but if you’re coming here, come for the drinks and the vibe. Perfect spot for groups and a personalized experience.
- birthday party
Went for a friend’s birthday party. It was a lot of us so still giving 3 stars giving the benefit of a doubt. I didn’t love my dish (chicken kebab) but others loved the salmon and the chicken which came w mashed potatoes. I wish I would have gotten that instead. I tried the burger which came on ciabatta (tasty) but it felt like it needed more sauce. Also, it was so hard to get the waitress to come give us water. She also seemed new because she messed up the drink orders. Overall it was a cute experience (decor/long tables for big group) but just wished my food was tastier.
- group dinner, party of 12
Loved the food and vibe, but the servers neglected to tell us that they don’t accept cards on weekends, only cash. This was obviously super inconvenient with a group of 12, and when we asked they said there was a notice on the menu (there was not). Also, if you’re going for the $17 all inclusive it’s actually $20, and the cocktails are $10 instead of $7, they just “haven’t updated their website”. Disappointing because I really liked the atmosphere, but probably won’t be back if I don’t know what prices to expect.
