We were seated right away, and it was a perfect day to sit outside. The hostess let us know they had workers outside, but we were totally okay with the noise, which ended up being very minimal. We didn't order any drinks, but for food, I decided to try the birria grilled cheese, which comes with one side, and I chose fries. Not only did it look so appetizing, but it tasted AMAZING. The bread had some sort of seasoning on it that added so much flavor to the sandwich. The fries were seasoned exceptionally well too. I'll definitely be back sometime soon to try more items. The food today was 10/10, and our waitress was very kind and attentive as well.

The pace did start picking up around 6:30. The food was great! If you're considering getting appetizers, one is more than enough to share. I loved the cost to serving size ratio on everything we got. The food was wonderful! Depths to the flavors in all the meals. The server had a genuinely hard time picking the best thing on the menu, which I took as a good sign. After trying the salmon salad, the elote fries, and the fried pickles, I can see why. Word of caution: You will be tempted to eat all of the fries and pickles before your meal comes out. Next time, I would see if the appetizers and the entree could come out at the same time so I can eat more of the main entree.

I wrote this on my Facebook about my experience while traveling from California:…read more Today I was at a super cute café and ordered breakfast. After a couple of minutes, I went back up to the counter and asked if they had already started making it, because I wanted to change my order. The kitchen was open, so I said to the cook, "Don't worry about it if you've already started. I know my indecision can impact people, and I don't want to be a problem." He looked at me and said, "No, it's totally fine. Would you like some veggies on the side?" "Yes, that would be amazing," I said, and walked back to my table... and burst into tears. It wasn't just what he said. It was the kind energy in his eyes. I felt someone who took pride in what he was making, and who genuinely wanted people to be happy. I found myself asking, why am I crying? Because in a world where so many people in power feel disconnected, where corporations can make us feel like numbers, being genuinely cared for in a small café reminded me how much I love humans. Most people have love in their hearts and are trying to share it in their own small ways. As the world cracks, these simple things are more meaningful than ever.

We had a reservation, and we're able to get in right away, but there were many people waiting at the door on a Saturday night at 6:30. Our server did a great job, although I'm sure she was busy with many tables. We had a party of seven, and she got our soups and salad is out quickly, as well as the rest of our meal. My only complaint from this visit is that our salad was not stirred at all. It was a bowl of lettuce, with a few tomatoes and one corner, a few banana peppers in another corner, a few red onions in another corner, and the dressing board on the top. This was disappointing, as a salad is one of my favorite parts of Olive Garden! There wasn't enough toppings or dressing in the salad, which caused it to fall flat. Fortunately, our food came out pretty quickly, so I didn't eat much of the salad. Our entrées were delicious! The fettuccine Alfredo is always my favorite, and this came out perfect. Lasagna surprise me with how fantastic it was! Every ingredient tasted amazing, but the ricotta cheese was the most impressive part to me! I took a bite of the chicken Parmesan, but did not prefer this, as it definitely was was on the cheaper end and probably a frozen/reheated pea that quickly became soggy with the marinara on top. For the price of this meal, I am always blown away by the quality! I absolutely love the flavors of the sauces and ingredients used here, they're always the same, no matter what location you go to. After getting this dish, I may have to change my usual order from just the fettuccine to this trio!
