We sat outside by the parking lot, but they have a nice little area with big, comfortable tables. There's a QR code you can scan to see the whole menu, which was very handy, because the menu is huge! It took us a long time to scroll through the entire drink menu because there were so many choices! For dinner, we decided to get 12 inch pizza so we could try a bunch of different kinds. We thought that the barbecue chicken pizza was one of the best we've ever had! The pesto pizza was also outstanding!

Typically when trying pizza somewhere for the first time we like to order basic toppings, but we couldn't resist the bbq chicken option and I'm glad we went that route because it was yummy, filling, and there was enough to share. Their coffee and desserts looked and sounded fab so I'm excited to try those next time.

They have a bunch of cute outdoor seating, so we asked to sit out there. Rachel was our server and she was great - very friendly and attentive! I ordered the Avocado Scramble, but I made a couple of modifications. Unfortunately they forgot to address them, but Rachel took care of that right away and the dish was very good. My wife had the Eggs Benedict, her favorite breakfast dish. She said it was very good and she particularly liked the potatoes that came with it. One final note (and this was not reflected in my rating): the seating in the outdoor section is pretty tight and a couple with a large dog was seated next to us. I'm not a big fan of people bringing dogs to restaurants, but if they are well behaved, I can deal with it. Unfortunately, at one point this dog got excited by a dog coming by on the sidewalk and jumped up and started barking at the others dog, just inches away from me. It was quite startling and its owner was not particularly apologetic. With such a confined space, I think this establishment may want to reconsider whether it allows dogs in their outdoor seating area.

But on a Friday, everything else was full and they had space. You step inside and it has the feel of a trendy hot spot; loud music, great vibe, nice decor. Young crowd, lots of couples on dates, and a few large groups. Very extensive drink list, with interesting cocktails. Huge bar. I would say the music is a bit too loud; its not a dance club, so I should be able to have a conversation without screaming. Food is good enough, but not quite there. Menu is interesting and well thought out. Smoked Salmon Crostini is 10 out of 10. Smash burger is bland and just ok. WAY too much sauce. 4 out of 10. Bam bam shrimp tacos are highly craveable. 8 out of 10. Steak frites, priced at $60, are very tasty, but not worth the $60. I ordered my steak medium rare; the ends were a perfect mid rare, but the middle was rare, which is fine as its a big steak and the rare bits will heat up nicely at home. Meat its self seasoned extremely well, and quite tender given its a NY strip. Service is good, but a bit slow. Overall, I would like to come back for a happy hour at the bar.

Granted I did have to ask for them to be remade since the first batch was burned (cooks nowadays try to service only the lighter side up as if our taste buds won't notice the burnt side on the back ) but the server was gracious and acknowledged the oversight offering to have them remade. The skillet was an excellent choice with lots of flavor and loved having guac and sour cream as a topping. I'd happily eat here again. It was quite busy for a Saturday but we didn't wait long to be seated and served. It a bustling restaurant with plenty of seating options.

The servers are all well trained, and highly professional. The food is fantastic. The menu is the standout; it is very creative and has something for everyone. Let's start with their breakfast. This is probably the best breakfast/brunch place in town. Too bad they're only open weekends for breakfast. Whenever we have family back in town or friends from out of town, this is our go to place. Casual relaxed, friendly with quality food. If you haven't been here for breakfast, I would highly recommend it. The only comment I have is they don't open for breakfast until a little bit later in the morning. Usually, there is a line out out front waiting for them to open. We've had most things on the menu and to be truthful, not one thing has disappointed. Dinner: we don't get here too often for dinner because in my mind, this is our go to breakfast place. Last week we tried it for dinner and again, very pleasantly surprised at the professionalism of the wait staff, the quality of the food, and the overall dining experience. Whoever transformed his place from a hipster beer hall to a quality dining experience did a great job. Kudos to them!

She responded that she already had, but I pointed out that there were still crumbs there. She seemed irritated, so I even offered to wipe it myself if she gave me the towel. She then asked me to show her where the crumbs were and wiped them off. Unfortunately, her attitude throughout the interaction was very rude and unprofessional. My sister then asked to speak with a manager. When the manager came over, the other ladies in our group also mentioned the waitress's attitude. Instead of addressing our concerns professionally, the general manager became defensive and stated that the waitress did not have a nasty attitude. He then told us that if we wanted to leave, we could leave because he was not going to be bothered with us. He took our menus and asked us to leave simply because we requested that the table be cleaned properly. I would love to see better service and customers treated with respect! Ms Cheryl W.

Tonight I paid attention and all was right in my world. It's jarring when I don't. Still, throw up a yellow piece of tape or something. This is not drunk or wheelchair friendly. I wasn't either yet, so the coast was clear. We sat at the bar and it was vino for bestie- a malbec and a black cherry bourbon cola slushy and agua for me. Mike was our bartender / server and he made sparkling conversation like we were old friends. He just got back from Vegas. He went to Chinatown. Love it! The atmosphere is a light wood, sports bar feel, the tvs were closed captioned, and the menus had QR codes. There was a $30 ancho salmon on the menu. It came with my choice of side. I opted for the Greek salad. She got French onion soup and quinoa salad. Let's talk about my meal and why I'm giving 5 stars despite the whole front step thing. The salmon was perfect. It has a crispy red speckled exterior that was slightly spicy and very savory. Inside it was perfectly cooked and moist. It was just a bit less than an inch thick and pieces flaked off on my fork easily. There was no fishiness and I ate the crisp skin, which I never do usually with salmon. It was divine. It came with a side. The Greek side salad took up half my plate and it was piled high with a truly interesting and thoughtful array of quirky bites. It was weird for sure- but it worked. Picture a Greek salad in your mind. Ok this is not that. It had the usual crunchy lettuce with a light and tangy Greek dressing. There were vibrant and sweet red onions and feta. And then it got wild. There were crunchy pickled beets, roasted tomatoes that tasted like basil, sweet jalapenos, (Yes- you read that right!) crunchy fried garbanzos that tasted like Indian spices... It was the strangest and most deliberately delicious Greek salad I've ever had. I'm not a salad person. At all. This was the star of the show, but that salmon was stiff competition. Together, the meal sang. You have no idea the gratitude that swept over me after having that nursing home salmon at Red Robin for my birthday. I have been vindicated. This is the salmon I was meant to have. This is the salmon I deserve. I can now return to Las Vegas satisfied that Michigan did show up in a big way for me today. Thanks Vincetta Garage and Mike! Five stars! Fix your step.

What made it a great meal was that every food item was just so well prepared. I had their Green Eggs and Ham (poblano pesto and jack cheese scrambled eggs served with seared ham, spuds, and toast). My parents both ordered the Forager Rumble (mushrooms, caramelized onions, smoked gouda, and greens scrambled with eggs, served with spuds and toast), but my mom veganized it (with tofu and no cheese) and my stepdad egg white-d it. They make everything in house, down to their jams (the jam of the day was strawberry basil) and the hot sauces (they offer a range from mild to hot). I don't normally eat much of the toast served with breakfast plates, but with jam that good!? I ate that (well-buttered) toast! My green eggs and ham was a treat - retro, fun, and delicious. We also enjoyed a few cups of coffee each. On top of the great food, the service was great. The friendliest. This is just a charming spot for breakfast. I'd love to return!

It's not the place to go if you're expecting something upscale, but it's definitely the place if you're looking for something unique and full of personality. We loved the selection of hot sauces and the variety of drinks. Even the salt and pepper shakers at each table were different. Ours were shaped like s'mores, which was a fun touch. I ordered the huevos rancheros and added chorizo. The flavors were good, but my only complaint was that it came out at room temperature rather than hot. I also would have loved to see it served on a corn tortilla, which would have made it feel a bit more traditional. My friend really enjoyed the breakfast burrito. Overall, I'd absolutely come back. Our waitress was friendly, the service was great, and it was a really pleasant experience.
