| - It's not fair to write a review when a place just opened, right? Even when the service is awesome and the food is completely yum, there are glitches and things to be worked out, right? So: I'll tell you the glitches and you decide.
We arrived just after noon and were seated right away. After our drink orders were taken we spent a bit of time deciding on our meals, which was fun because we had lots of vegetarian choices. My companion had the "No-Meat Meatball Melt 'wich"[$9.95], three large barley/lentil/mushroom/onion 'meatballs' covered in tomato marinara and melted cheddar on a bun, with a side of russet fries. Even our toddler in the high chair gave a big 'wow' for these 'meatballs' and fries.
I had the Korean bowl of barley, basmati rice, daikon pickle, shitake mushrooms, zucchini [I admit, I thought it was cucumber], nuts, and spicy sauce [$10.95]. I was told to mix everything together really well before eating it. Tiny glitch #1: the menu says this dish includes a sunny side up egg but I didn't find it in mine. Everything was so tasty, crunchy, toothsome and good that I didn't miss it at all, although next time I will ask.
Water was refilled throughout our stay, napkins were replenished often [see aforementioned toddler], and we were made to feel very welcome indeed.
Oh, yes, we had dessert: the no-cheese cheesecake [$6.50] with a scoop of saucy blueberries on top. The cheesecake was very creamy and light, the blueberries were just right; we all shared it and agreed it was a fitting end to our meal.
Our bill came and although I didn't notice until we'd left, there was tiny glitch #2: If you have a sandwich, then soup, salad or fries on the side is listed as $3.95, but we were charged the "Sides" price of $5.45.
Two tiny glitches which I bet would have been remedied had we pointed them out.
And an awesome experience overall.
