Tyler&rsquo;s service was so friendly and attentive. The new crab dip and manicotti were really nice.

Came here for happy hour with my girls. The BBQ chicken salad was so good, especially with those crispy fried onions on top! Perfect spot to catch up over a drink and a solid bite. 🥗

The patio is a great spot to bring your dog. Staff was friendly, and it&rsquo;s just a really chill place to hang out with a drink.

Came here for a lazy Sunday brunch. Our server was super thorough about checking the menu for my friend&#39;s nut allergy, which I really appreciated. The sourdough pancakes were fluffy and not too sweet. Solid spot for a chill group meal.

Late dinner. The Oysters Rockefeller were cheesy and full of flavor. The duck spring rolls were so good, almost a meal on their own.

Stopped by for a quick bite. The space is really calming, nice art on the walls. Cool that they have a little market next door with Russian stuff.

Christina was a really nice server. She was attentive and had a good sense of humor. We were celebrating, and she brought out a dessert with a candle, which was a thoughtful touch. The service was definitely the highlight.

The red sangria pitcher is perfect for sharing. We loved customizing the spice level on our chicken too!

Service was friendly, but the pastas were hit or miss. The ravioli was solid, but the fettuccine was overcooked and bland. For the price, I expected more flavor.

The pho broth was so clean and light, you can really taste the fresh herbs. The thinly sliced beef was tender and not fatty at all. A very comforting bowl. The space itself is quiet and pleasant.

The steak was so tender, just melted in my mouth. Cooked exactly how I like it. The lobster bisque was a nice start, rich and creamy. A little pricey, but the whole vibe was just right for a quiet dinner.

The atmosphere is lovely, especially the garden seating. I enjoyed the biscuits with apple butter and the cast iron chocolate chip cookie, both were delicious!

Cozy, low-key spot with a diner vibe. The food was solid. Good selection of wine and beer for a casual meal. Nothing fancy, but it gets the job done.

Been coming here for years. The fish is always fresh, and they don&#39;t cut corners on the prep. That&#39;s why I keep coming back.

My usual spot for a solid bowl of pho. The broth is consistently fresh and hot, which is just what you want when the craving hits. A reliable choice.

Stopped in for the weekday lunch special. The sticky rice with custard at the end was the real highlight for me - that warm, creamy texture was just right.

Solid portions, always have leftovers. Pad Thai&#39;s reliable, but the green chicken curry and chive dumplings are the real winners. Quick and consistent for a takeout lunch.

Been coming here for years, and their spicy pork belly ramen is still the main reason. It&#39;s a solid, hearty bowl every time.

The fried calamari was tasty, but the batter was a bit heavy for my taste. Still, it&#39;s a solid neighborhood spot to grab a bite with friends.

The red curry had this incredible depth of flavor, just the right amount of heat. The portion was huge, honestly more than I could finish. Really solid for what you pay.

The boiled fish with chili oil is the real deal. That numbing Sichuan peppercorn tingle hits just right. It&#39;s got the authentic kick I was hoping for. A bit on the spicy side, but that&#39;s what I came for.

The tonkotsu ramen was the star. That broth had such a deep, silky richness. I appreciated being able to adjust the toppings to my taste. Their house sake was a surprisingly good match, cutting through the richness nicely.

The new patio is nice, but I&#39;m here for the food. The grilled octopus was cooked perfectly, tender with a good char. The lemon-herb oil they serve it with is sharp and bright. That&#39;s what I&#39;ll remember.

The Drunken Noodles were so good we ended up ordering another plate to share. Perfect for a casual lunch with friends before 4pm. Pad Thai was solid too.

The braised mushroom and sweet potato tacos were really good. I ended up eating them in the plaza, and the takeout boxes were actually perfect for that&mdash;super convenient and kind of cute.

Service was efficient and the food had a home-cooked quality. Good for a quick business lunch.

The frozen margaritas really made the meal. The chicken was surprisingly moist, and the fish salad was solid.

The vibe is cozy and upscale, great for a special night out. The wine list is solid, and the staff helped me pick a nice red to go with the steak. A bit on the pricier side, but you get what you pay for.
