| - I was excited to check this place out and I wanted to love my experience here, but honest truth, it was just meeeehh.
We were in the Yorkville area and wanted to grab a dessert. Many of the restaurants are closed by 7pm so I yelped the nearest dessert place that was still open and landed here.
Service-wise, it was nothing special or spectacular. We had to get our own water and wave a waiter/waitress for extra silverware and plates. I wish service was more attentive but with about two people working in the cafe, I guess that's the best they can do.
We ordered a veggie panini and chocolate brownie sundae. The panini tasted great, it was served hot with beautiful grill marks but for $13.99, that was pretty steep. We also had the chocolate brownie sundae, which was extremely mediocre. The brownie was nothing out of this world, just your plain old brownie; there weren't even chocolate chips or nuts in the brownie. The whip cream was crazy overkill in this dessert--probably to hide how little brownie is actually in the dish. The ice cream was okay, but then again, who doesn't like ice cream? Overall, I would not recommend ordering this dish, especially since it costed $9.99. Rather, I would say get a cake for $6.99~7.99 and then add $2.49 for a scoop of ice cream with it--you may get a bit more bang for your buck.
Would I return? Maybe, because I haven't tried their cheesecake so there is a chance that I'd return.
