Came out on Mothers day for Breakfast. This place has a nice, chill vibe and mainly outdoors…read moreseating in the back. They have some interesting drinks on the menu, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. The food was alright, nothing special or that stood out. Service was quick and they do have high-chairs if needed. They did get quite busy around 10am so if youre thinking of coming here, it might be worth getting a reservation. Overall it was a nice breakfast, but a little out of the way for me and parking was tough (street parking only).

Well, I honestly have to say I am really disappointed in the service here. I am a single girl who…read morecan't cook so I dine out 24/7 and RARELY leave a review however I feel that if I do maybe something can change for the next guest trying to enjoy an experience. It's really hard to be in a joyful mood when you are not being attended to. I did receive a glass of water at the very beginning, that was nice, after that everything was basically as if I was invisible. They brought my food out fast, I wanted to ask for sauces, more napkins & no one checked in on me. Maybe because I came during dinner time? The bartender is gold -- he was more attentive than the whole staff the entire time. I am sad to say that this truly made my food non exciting and very blah. I've been here before for breakfast and it has been great, bummed that wasn't today. As a single eater, I felt extra lonely. Sincerely, Anonymous foodie x

I was surprised by how spacious this place was. I never would have guessed it from looking at it…read morefrom the street. Inside, it feels open and airy, with a large dining room and a patio area. After we sat down, I noticed signs limiting computer use during the day and not allowing it on weekends. I could easily see myself coming here for something to eat and then hanging out for a while to get some work done. Overall, the place had a very relaxed vibe. The people working there were genuinely friendly. We arrived just before 5:00, and when I ordered a beer, the server told me it was still happy hour and asked whether I wanted two for the price of one. By the time he tried to enter it, the clock had struck five and the option was no longer available. We both got a good laugh out of it. A band was setting up while we waited for our food. Both of us were surprised when the biscuit fried chicken sandwich arrived--it was huge! I wasn't all that hungry, so I ordered the flatbread. It was good, and the portion was not overly large, which was exactly what I wanted. I am glad I stopped by this spot, and I will definitely be back.

I have come to Re/creation cafe for nearly past 3 years more than 20 times. There are lots of Music…read moreperformances that I always enjoyed, which made unforgettable memories for my family and friends. I love the back patio that allows natural light and enough personal rooms, also the fire pit area where you can just stare at mindlessly. When it gets cold, there is even blanket you can borrow temporarily. Everything is well-thought out for great time. They offer rewards program too, which give a free drink for every 10 drinks you purchased! (so I have come to this place quite a few times obviously, since I've gotten two free drinks already!) People have mentioned about laptop restriction policy. As someone who likes to go to cafe to study or work, of course this has limited my visits for that reasons. But I also can agree with this policy as well, since that way, I bring people here for more meaningful occasions and full presence of mine for them. Love the owner, Nick as well! I didn't know him personally but he was very welcoming whenever I went.

Myself and my husband along with 4 of our friends decided to try Vicky's before a play we were attending. At first, I was a little worried as it's not a large place, and looks more like a neighborhood spot, but I was pleasantly surprised when our food arrived. The service was great, as well as the timing of the food and drinks arriving after we ordered. The food was great, and they gave you nice portions that can be shared. Everything we ordered was tasty, as well as my friends were raving about the dishes they ordered. I will definitely recommend, and myself and my husband will be back for sure. Looking forward to trying their breakfast, and more dinner items on the menu. Don't sleep on this spot, its excellent!

Tried the protein peanut butter mango shake with oat milk, honestly, delicious. Smooth, rich, and…read moreworth it. Service, though... a bit off. It was slow, and after saying she'd come back, our server never checked in to take our food order. Ended up having to flag down another waitress, even though there were only two customers in this establishment . I also had to get up to ask for my bill and to go boxes after waving my hand in the air for a good minute as she (waitress) was talking to a male worker. Now we are sitting waiting for the bill I asked for when I waited for the to go boxes. Ambiance was cute and had a nice vibe, just wish the service matched it.

I ordered the Matador's Wife sandwich with avocado. I also grabbed an Olipop Peaches & Cream and a…read morebag of Zapp's Sweet Creole Onion chips. The sandwich was excellent. Everything tasted fresh, and the avocado was a great addition that made it even more satisfying. The flavors all came together really well, and every bite had a nice balance without anything overpowering the rest. It was a generous portion and definitely filled me up. The Olipop Peaches & Cream was smooth and refreshing, and the Zapp's Sweet Creole Onion chips were packed with flavor and added the perfect crunch alongside the sandwich. The restaurant had a cozy, welcoming atmosphere, and the staff was friendly and attentive. My order came out quickly, and everything tasted fresh and made to order. Overall, it was a great lunch. I'd definitely recommend Monroe Place, and I'll be back to try more of the sandwiches on the menu.

Herb turkey, saffron mayo, cucumber, pistachios, barberries, pomegranate molasses, crispy shallots, and arugula on focaccia... sounds unconventional on paper but WOW , perfection. so incredibly well balanced. I was hoping to try the Dilly Dally, but they had already switched to the Brutus chicken salad sandwich, which was still very tasty. That said, the WLF was the clear winner. They have counter seating inside and ample outdoor seating, but also seems more of a stop and go place. Def worth a stop!

The service varies at times and can be slow to get the order made. During a recent visit, they were…read moreout of several ingredients that were being cooked and avocados that needed to be cut. I don't love that if you order through the app they put the ticket order in the bowl side as they're adding food into it. Receipt print outs are plastic with BPAs that leech easily and that's being put in the food. If you order in person, you can avoid this. They validate for parking but if there's no attendant in the lot then you have to pay.

Hopefully I can try them again next time and have a better experience! Take 2: ordered a steak bowl again to give it another shot for $20. It came with like 2 pieces of broccoli, a sad amount of cold mushrooms that were burnt, and the toughest and smallest steak ever... :( -- Sweetgreen is okay! I ordered on the app and it was ready in about 15-20 minutes. The location is a cute spot but had no parking to dine in or pick up so was quite difficult to enter. The store inside was clean and the cashier was nice and guided me to the pick up location with bags and utensils you can grab yourself. I tried the hot honey chicken bowl as they were doing a $12 promotion, but it was really decent. I think chipotle tastes better and has more bang for your buck. Their sweet potato's weren't the freshest and their chicken pieces were a bit shredded and lacking. I did enjoy their cabbage and hot honey sauce, but felt the price point for typically $17 is definitely not worth it. I tried their mixed grain rice and it was burnt and had super hard pieces inside. I like that you can customize your entire bowl and look at the nutrition and calories per item on the app, but there is also an additional cost per added side. An overall decent meal, healthy but maybe not my favorite.

They have indoor and outdoor dining! Enjoy!

I love the Chinese Chicken salad here, and ordering through the app is easy (yay to free avocado…read morerewards!). My only nitpick is that sometimes there are a few dry or gristly pieces of chicken, but overall this is such a satisfying meal without the greasy guilt from other fast-casual places. I also really like the tomato soup, chicken panini and the egg salad sandwich.
