I had a lovely lunch here with my mom before some last-minute Christmas Shopping at the mall. We were even seated a table away from the chefs who were eating there before a book signing. The restaurant is very nice: black and white tables/walls with large private booths. The restaurant was pretty full when we visited so we sat at the high top table in the bar.
We both had the soup and salad lunch special with mushroom soup and greens. The mushroom soup was nice and velvety, but made with no dairy! The salad was a bit disappointing. It was pretty plain and could've used some nuts or berries to spice things up a bit. The soup was also a little salty. I had a butter tart and a pot of honey lemon tea for dessert. I recommend the butter tart - it's a good size, is served warm, and the pastry is nice and light.
Warning: apparently they recently changed the menu and made all of the portions way smaller. Mom - who is a frequent visitor- said you used to get a whole bowl of soup, but they've since downgraded to a little cup. Same with all the sandwich combos. Good try O&B, you can't sneak anything by her!
