Lunch on a weekday wasn't too bad of a wait. My toast was made fresh and out to me in less than 10 minutes. Fresh ingredients and really picture-worthy dishes. Though very niche with only toast on the food menu (smoothies and coffee as well), I do really like the flight of toasts where you get to choose 3 to sample. I began with the lox toast. The toast itself was a hard wheat (not a connoisseur on toast but that's what it seemed to be to me). Lox was chewy and fishy and fit for a bagel; but still third best of the toasts. My next indulgence was the beet hummus toast. Really easy to eat hummus that didn't overpower you with the flavor of the beets. Harsh cheese and a lot of salt from the toast actually complimented each other a lot to make this my favorite. The avocado toast was as good as any in town. Fresh tomatoes, sliced avocado, and again fantastic, heavy cheese. A complaint of mine was that these dishes, although they look awesome, are simply impossible to eat. There's no "sandwich" option so everything either falls off or gets all up in your face with each bite. Tasty, but a fork and knife type of meal.
Restaurant itself is very clean and bright and relaxing. Prices are high for a meal that might not fill you up, but the presentation is probably worth a little upcharge. I paid a little less than $17 for my flight. Overall a cool little spot. Few outdoor seats and takeout somehow available (weird, as I'd think they want it to be presented a certain way and take out always looks worse). The workers are very nice and are constantly out and about on the restaurant floor seeing if people need anything else which is nice for a minimal, casual-service restaurant such as this. I would definitely come back, especially if the menu gets updated.
