| - I've dined here multiple times for lunch (either dine in or take out) and always have found my experience to be rated as a solid 4 stars. Today, I dined in and ordered the mango, crispy prosciutto and mango salad with chicken and candied orange + lavender cafe soda.
In regard to my beverage, the woman behind the counter had little knowledge about the drink besides that it was strong (had a shot of espresso in it, in addition to lavender simple syrup, orange juice, sparkling water and candied orange peel). As you can tell by the ingredients, I was perplexed as to how this would taste. Surprisingly, it was not too sweet and had a strong coffee taste with a hint of orange. I did not taste lavender, but maybe my taste sense was off today?! Anyway- I do recommend trying this at least once...not sure how long it will be around as it's on the summer drink menu.
The salad did not have the best visual appearance but was quite delicious. I loved the passion fruit vinaigrette and how the different ingredients melded together. Thin strips of mango and jicama, pineapple and crispy prosciutto...made for a delicious salad.
You can never go wrong though with a croissant sandwich or their soups. And as others have noted, the salted caramel brownie is the absolute best dessert here. Do not leave without one in your hand!
