I've been to this location many times in its previous incarnations as Fate and Nine05. A groupon gave me a reason to check out the new take. I really wanted to like but... I'm pretty sure I'll never be back.
I love the location. The new owners finally finished a re-model that was underway for years it seems. But the food... was just... not very great. The "comfort cheese crisp" appetizer ($8) we had with tomato, mozzarella, and pesto was pitiful. A large greasy chip with a tomato slice, a slice of mozzarella, and some pesto oil sprinkled over it. It was so greasy and frankly not very flavorful. I think a simple sprinkle of salt would have been a great improvement. (no salt on the table btw)
I followed it up with the "veggie delight" ($7) which the menu said was "seasonal vegetables on a pretzel bun" - more like a (fried?) patty of vegetables smothered with some sort of cheese spread? And one of the most inedible side salads (maybe it was a garnish I wasn't suppose to eat) I've ever encountered.
Overall I felt their printed menu was not very helpful in its descriptions or usability. I should have asked the waitress for clarification I guess.
The music was horrible. Loud upbeat generic electronic music with diva vocals and the like. I'm sure that works for some people but it just never will for me.
Three stars for the drinks - which were strong and tasty. I also appreciated that they had "light" mixed drinks to offer - even thought I didn't spring for one. And decent service.
