Staying at the hotel, so we tried the restaurant. The staff was very respectful, which I appreciated. Service was fast, too. I liked that they had some simple grilled fish and steamed vegetables on the menu. It felt like a decent, healthy option right downstairs.

Our server was so nice and handled our big group perfectly. Felt like we weren&#39;t a hassle at all.

The afternoon tea set is a solid deal at $20. Love that they have so many gluten-free and dairy-free choices!

The lumberjack pancakes were fluffy and generous. I liked how the place felt cozy even when it got busy later. Friendly staff, too.

The outdoor seating is so nice for drinks and wings. Service was a little slow, but the vibe was perfect.

The owner is really hands-on and makes sure everything&#39;s good. The pizza&#39;s pretty solid, and the stone oven wings are a nice touch.

The owner and the staff are so nice and really pay attention. They check in just enough to make sure you&#39;re enjoying your meal without being overbearing. It makes for a very comfortable lunch.

Been coming here for years, it&#39;s the real deal. That lavash bread from the fire oven is the star, always fresh and warm. Perfect with the yogurt dill dip. Prices are fair for the neighborhood.

The meatballs here are pretty good. They&#39;re large and have a decent amount of flavor. I&#39;d say they&#39;re some of the better ones I&#39;ve tried. The sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste, but overall it was a fine dish.

Fun local spot. Bartenders are good at customizing drinks to your taste. They play old-school music videos, which is a nice touch. A solid choice for a casual drink after work.

The wine list is really something. And the cocktails! Their take on a Bee&#39;s Knees was so smooth, just the right balance. I could have stayed all night just working through the menu.

The New Haven-style pizza by the slice is solid. The crust is crisp and airy, exactly what you want. Toppings are fresh. It&#39;s a reliable, quick lunch option downtown.

Solid neighborhood pub. The burger was juicy and cooked just right, and the fish and chips were spot-on. Good craft beer list too. Friendly service, felt like a local. Exactly what I was looking for on a casual night out.

Been coming here for years with friends! The mini hot dogs with the special meat sauce are always a hit. Perfect for grabbing a quick bite before a night out. Service is super fast even on crowded nights, so you never have to wait long to catch up.

I liked the little market inside. Grabbed some gochujang and kimchi on the way out. Prices were fair for the quality, and it&#39;s nice to have that option. Makes the place feel more complete.

The coffee was rich and smooth, and my avocado toast was perfectly done. Prices are a bit steep for a cafe, even for this quality. Portions are decent at least.

Solid value for sushi. A bit pricey but worth it for the quality. Two people can eat well here without spending too much. Boba pearls were on point.

They got our group of 22 seated and served quickly. No long wait. The staff kept things moving even when it was busy. Solid for a big lunch.

The Chicken Milanese was done just right, and the Fettuccine Alfredo sauce is the best I&#39;ve had. The portions are huge, so I took some home. The booths are comfortable and spaced well apart, which made the meal feel relaxed.

Spicy pork bowl was my pick. Pork had a nice sear, rice was flavorful. Lettuce added a fresh crunch. Felt like a solid deal for what you get.

Stopped in for a coffee. The strawberry milk cold brew was really refreshing, and the horchata latte had nice warm spices. They always have interesting seasonal drinks.
