| - Had lunch here with a friend on Saturday at 11:30. Located in what looks like a converted house, the sign was large enough that I didn't have any trouble spotting it on Osborn. There was plenty of parking and a quick glance at the patio, it looked really nice. It was a bit confusing trying to figure out where to go in as one other person mentioned. I'm still not entirely sure where the front door is so it would be nice to have some signs. Someone finally let us in one of the doors at the front off the patio. The place was nice and bright and I actually enjoyed the classic decor.
We were sat around back and only one other table had a couple enjoying their lunch. Our waiter came fast to greet us and went over the menu after he asked if we had been in before. Several things stood out to me on the menu but in the end we went with the fries as an appetizer, an upcharged mixed green salad to accompany my slow cooked chicken breast sandwich. My friend ordered the kale salad and the Rueben sandwich.
We seemed to sit for quite before our fries arrived but the fries were really good once they finally came out. I wasn't overly found of any of the dipping sauces...the aioli didn't have a whole lot of flavor, the sauce vert was just strange and the truffle ketchup was ketchup with I guess, a hint of truffle. Having never had truffle anything, it was pretty good and I used it for my dip for the rest of the fries. Regular ketchup would have been just as enjoyable though.
About 1 minute after we received our appetizer, our sandwiches arrived. This is one of my pet peeves..It makes the meal rushed and always cramps the table. Maybe the advertised 3 or 4 times they fry the fries is what caused the delay?
My sandwich was okay but it lacked a whole lot of the flavor. The bread was soft but didn't have a lot of flavor, the tomato sauce was okay but again, lacked a lot of flavor. I eventually opted to take the top off my sandwich and just eat the chicken to save a few calories from the lackluster bread. The salad was really good though but they put the dressing directly on it, something I requested on the side. My friend never mentioned anything about her sandwich so take that how you want.
The restaurant did seem to pick up by the time we were finished and our waiter repeatedly walked by our table and never asked if we needed anything else or to refill my Diet Coke. I eventually had to flag him down for the refill...and then again to get the check.
Overall, cute place with forgettable food and some not so great service. For a $24 lunch, I doubt I'll come back.
