| - Thought I would check this place out based on all the hype in the reviews..
Service: very helpful and friendly staff
Atmosphere: clean, upscale trendy cafeteria like atmosphere with modern decor
Food (Mains): I ordered the Tuscan flatbread which came with a small soup or salad. $14-$16? The flatbread was delicious and a good portion (think small size pizza with premium toppings). The Lentil soup was good as well, however, I was expecting more of a kick from it.
I also ordered something that looked like a lamb quesadilla. The flavours were delicious and it also came with a soup or side salad for $14-$16? It was extremely flavourful, but I felt like I couldn't justify the price point for the portion of this item on the menu..
(Dessert): Their cakes are delicious as well. Only $4 each when you purchase with a main. I had a few items from their case and to be honest, I don't think you can go wrong with their desserts.. The espresso cake and this ganache chocolate cake with pistachios were my favourite.
Coffee: I ordered a caramel latte based on their recommendation - unfortunately I was a little disappointed with it as it was on the super sweet side and overpowered the coffee. I know, probably my fault.. If I didn't want sweet, I should order regular coffee. Just a point, I do order mixed coffee based drinks once every so often and even had someone else who drinks those fancy drinks try it, and we both agreed it was too sweet.. Maybe I will try it half sweet or 1/4 sweet next time.
All in all, a trendy cafe with good food and great service. Great for business lunch or a casual first date.. just remember, this is not an average priced establishment.. prices tend to by higher here.
