| - Rough.
There are so many marchés in the path right underneath, but this is the dine-in experience. We came with a table of 7 and when we asked the hostess, she said repeatedly "well I have a table of 6..." .....um okay, that's great but I have a bottle of wine and netflix at home, but that ain't gon' help me here, is it. My coworker then said "well, we have 7.. can you accomodate?" (there were plenty of seats at this time too) and the hostess went on again and said "I have a table for 6.. maybe you can sit down and ask the bartender to pull a chair up" ...and then just stared at us waiting for a response???? first of all, isn't it YOUR job to ask if you can accomodate 7? Why would we go in, sit at a table for 6 and what if they don't give us an extra chair?? Then one of us would just stand??
The food was pretty good, except pricey. They give you a plate and you can stack it on for a set price, which you don't get to know till the end. It's all a mystery game show or something of the sort. I got 2 small plates - one with veggies and one with salad/quinoa. Sweet potatoes were delicious but everything else was pretty plain-ish, it was mediocre food that tasted good in a time of hunger. Oh, those two plates equalled up to $20, which is a pricey lunch for 'meh' food. There was nothing too special about anything there but they did have a bit of everything, so it's a good place to hit up with a group that has different tastes (eg. I only eat plant-based foods, while I sat beside my coworker who had half a chicken and a baked potato on his plate). It accommodates everyone's tastes. Accommodating, unlike the staff there. Oh, and speaking of staff - the ones working behind the grills/food didn't seem too friendly either, which is even more intimidating for first timers trying to find out how the process works.
OH, and 12% gratuity automatically put on your bill even though you serve yourself, you get your own food, you get up to go line up to pay at the registers yourself. Okay?
This place is more flashy than anything. I'm not saying I'd never go again, but idk man.. marché be playin' with our hearts with these prices and attitude.
