Had great service at lunch today! Shout out to Ruth: a real professional.
Arrived a little past two and was looking forward to the jalapeƱo pecan pancakes but Ruth --after trying to see if there was any chance to stop the kitchen before it was too late -- informed us that the breakfast set up had already been torn down and we would be limited to lunch. Disappointing, but absolutely understandable. I appreciated her 1) driving at our table so quickly after being seated and 2) noticing we were looking at the breakfast menu and redirecting us before we could get too far down the road to disappointment.
The best thing about lunch at Orange Table is the cocktail menu! Granted, you could get one with breakfast but they're the real highlight at lunch. I'm a fan of the ginger drinks but today I went with a refreshing strawberry, gin mojito called Glasglow ($9).
In lieu of the pancakes, I had the California Tuna. The concept is FABULOUS and has the potential to be as big of a hit as those killer pancakes for me, but the tuna was weak on flavor.
There were problems from the kitchen (no egg on a nicoise salad, pieces of tuna that were difficult to bite through); still, I'm looking forward to future visits and, hopefully, continuing to up my rating!
