I came here today for the first time with a friend for lunch and was happy with the food but dismayed by the service.
We arrived close to 1pm and the server let us seat ourselves so we chose a booth near the back as it wasn't busy or full yet. We waited a long time for someone to acknowledge us and were ready to order by the time the waitress came to check on us. She asked for drink orders so I got a negroni flip and my friend an old fashioned. Eventually, what looked like the manager put empty glasses on our table with no water. I noticed that she walked back and forth from our table and very obviously looked at our empty glasses but did not bother to fill them until we asked...We were a bit perplexed by that. Our drinks took a long time and we ordered our food before they arrived at our table. I wasn't too hungry and ordered the panko roasted cauliflower and my friend the tuna steak and tomato soup. Finally our drinks came and while it's hard to screw up an old fashioned, I did not enjoy my negroni flip at all. I was expecting a light and frothy drink (attributed to the egg white shaken into it) but it was flat, sickeningly sweet, and not at all herby and fragrant as I know them to be. I know the sweet vermouth and the simple syrup make it sweet but it was very unpleasant and very one-dimensional. It was drinkable, but barely...Halfway through, it started to have a bit of smell like dirty dishwater (maybe due to the egg white?) which was very unpleasant but I was paying $11 for it so I drank it. But terrible drink aside, the food was fantastic (albeit slow). My order wasn't anything fancy but it was really tasty and a good-sized portion for only $5. My friend's food looked great, though!
If it hadn't been for the extremely slow and almost negligent service (though they were nice enough), I would have given this place 4 stars but with the crappy cocktail, it really only deserved 3. The food was top notch so I hope it was just an off-day for service and it will be better if/when I come back.
