| - We had been hearing wonderful things about this restaurant, so my two friends and I (both of them are vegetarians, I am not) went to check it out.
We were so, so completely disappointed. We all ordered different things, but our reactions were all the same - our food was bland, overpriced, and uninspiring. The sandwich I ordered was just french fries on fried bread. I had to cover it in ketchup to get any flavour...and I am really not the "let's douse this in ketchup" type of gal. My friend had the jackfruit sandwich, which I enjoyed more than my own, but it was still quite soggy, and not overly flavourful.
The service was EXCELLENT. Our waiter was charming, attentive, and very enthusiastic about providing us with recommendations, which was great. Cheers to the staff! It was freezing in there, though. If you go in the Winter, wait a little while so you can find a seat as far from the door as possible.
It's also expensive. Beer and cider was above our budget, and although I love craft beer, my lager-loving friends couldn't find a draft on the menu that tempted them. I understand the reputation of this establishment, and the overwhelming praise it's been receiving, may peak your curiousity and by all means, try it if you must, but we will certainly not be returning.
