| - Wow, this place is legit. Been wanting to stop here for a while after my Whole Food jaunts, but for some reason never got around to it. Finally decided to try it today..
Let's move right onto the food. Sunday Brunch menu was up. There were 3 of us, so we just shared everything.
1. Florence St. Sandwich - $9.50: "Grilled chicken with tomatoes, artichokes, rocket, asiago and sundried tomato pesto aioli on ciabatta." And GOTDAMN did it deliver. Loved the oil & balsamic drizzle they had on the plate for dipping too.
2. Coastal Mushroom Pizza - $13.50: "Portobello, shitake and crimini mushrooms with feta, mozarella and tomato sauce." Another really tasty dish. Crust is on the thin side, and it was nice and crispy. The pizza itself was heavy though, from the generous amount of cheese and other toppings. Not on the level of Pizzeria Libretto, but still a really excellent pizza. Without sounding like a food network a$$h0l3, it was really "earthy".
3. Crepe au Miel - $9.00: "Field berries, with lemon and brown sugar flambe au Grand Marnier and vanilla whiped cream." I'm not really a sweets guy, but my wife & sis-in-law were and they absolutely loved it. Strawberries, blueberries, blackberries and pineapples were scattered generously all over the dish. There was a side of syrup as well. Crepe was slightly on the thick side, but still very well made with nice texture. I couldn't really taste any Grand Marnier though. The best part of the dish was the fact that it was not overly sweet like most crepe dishes that I have tried.
Even though we arrived there at 2:30pm or so, the line up was still fairly long. Things got moving fast though, and we were seated in less than 20 minutes. You order up first, pay, get seated, and then the food arrives (like those mom & pop diners). Service was very friendly from start to finish--really friendly staff.
I will definitely be back to try more items.
