Food is delivered fast, within about 5-10 minutes after ordering at the counter. Staff here is friendly, patient and helpful when someone who can't decide between all of the options is in front of them. :) I ordered "the rebel" French dip and loved every bite of it. I especially loved the little side salad that came with it that I wasn't expecting. The French dip itself was savory, tender, flavorful and the horseradish added the perfect "kick" to the wrap. I'd definitely order it again but there were also so many other things that I'd try on the menu! I'll stop back every time I'm in Arizona because it's worth the trip to try everything that looks so yummy!

Naturals tones with pops of green make this a delightful place to meet up with your friends. I had the tuna poke bowl. The flavors were super bright and hit all the classic notes of poke. I thoroughly enjoyed the passion fruit black tea, unsweetened of course. I'm not one for overly flavored drinks but they crushed it. I went back for seconds. I'm actually sad I found this on the last day in town, not my first.

I love the convenience of ordering online and arriving to have it ready on time every time. I tend to order for pickup a little earlier than the standard lunch time (typically 11-11:30), and there is usually a very short wait, nothing to write home about at all. I do know it gets crowded later, but it's easy (for me) to plan around that. They have a bunch of curated salads, but you can also customize everything. There are so many choices that the hardest part is designing the exact salad you want. They are also transparent about their nutrition, and you can easily find all of the nutrition facts on their website, so whether you're tracking calories or macros or you're just curious, it is super easy to figure out. And it is affordable for what it is. For about $10 I can get a huge, healthy lunch that is freshly made.

It's just a cozy little place. The wait staff are awesome, Sam was our server tonight and he was great!! Drinks were yummy and delish!! The cast iron corn bread is to die for!! So creamy, buttery warm goodness OMG, this is what heaven tastes like!! I've been craving it since the first time coming here. The artichoke was good too, it came with a tasty creamy dip. The baby back ribs tasted like home cooking, so yummy!! Sweet and crunchy on the outside. The meat was tender. Totally recommend 10/10 The halibut was definitely not worth the $44 price paid... It was very dry and tough on the bottom, for the tiny piece of meat :( I had to use the knife to cut off the hard, overcooked bottom. I ended up with tooth pain and had to take a pain pill after dinner. The risotto, although was creamy and delish!! 3/5 stars for me on this dish. We ordered the Key Lime pie to go!! I'm so glad we ordered to go, so that ww didn't miss this perfect pure opportunity!! It was a nicely sized slice, the crust had the best slight crunch, the pie its self was creamy, filling, with the perfect key lime flavor. This is definitely the best key lime pie I have ever eaten!!! Don't miss out on this little gem, give it a try! Melts in your mouth!! Yum yum!!

Which would've been super nice to know before I placed my order (the Three Cheese Mushroom Frittata). My order was yummy, surprisingly very filling (I think I underestimated the cheese when I ordered), and my family mostly said the same about their orders as well. They ordered a Breakfast Burrito, Mac & Cheese, and Avocado Toast with Eggs. I ordered the Matcha latte which was alright -- I wasn't wowed with this one, and I feel like the price didn't really match it for me. You could also tell a bit by the color in the picture I attached. My sister's Honey Cinnamon Latte was pretty good. What I did really love was the pastries! We unfortunately only got one (the Pistachio Cruffin), but it was really good! Their whole pastry section looked and sounded amazing, I was excited when I saw their selection.

Very French-inspired California coastal patio vibes. Cocktails: * INCREDIBLE. I love how creative their mixologist got when building this menu! Prices: * Overall pretty reasonable.

Our wait time was an hour. Place is cute, light and bright and side. It can be very loud so if you'd like something a little more quiet pick patio seating. We had ouefs de cocotte, chicken tenders, smash burger, and ROSEMARY fries. All were delicious. Ouefs de cocotte is rich and a bit salty but overall good. The drinks we had were Hugo spritz, Blue spritz and Spritz Sunday bloom. All super refreshing and went down a bit too easily so be forewarned! Service was good and the server was informative on the menu and drinks. He was also great at providing suggestions. We will be back.

Of course I had to get the gyro. This dish also comes with a choice of sides: fries, pasta, salad, chicken, rice, lemon soup, organic greens, or mixed greens. I went for the pasta salad. A friend and I also ordered hummus and pita for the table. Mediterranean food is already fresh but at this restaurant, each bite tasted fresher than the average Greek restaurant. The pita was warm and crunchy. The gyro tasted cleaner than any other gyro I've had. The pasta salad was okay, a little bland. The portion size was also incredible for lunch special! If I wanted to, I could have split it into two meals. To top it off, the owners gave me and my friend some baklava after we finished our meals, and that warmed my heart. Overall a great restaurant find. Water is self-service and free. Spent: $25-30

We went there before a show and allowed almost two hours to make sure we were not rushed. We told them this from the start, and yet, we still had to rush out before we were finished. Alas, if only this were the real problem here. My wife ordered hibiscus tea to start. When it was delivered it was dark and strong, When we asked the waiter about it he simply chuckled and said "yeah that's definitely black tea, not hibiscus". All I could think was, "it's a good thing my wife doesn't have a caffeine aversion." Next course was a beet salad which came out loaded with blueberries and strawberris (which neither of us recalled seeing in the description).....and literally zero beets. I asked where the beets were and within a couple seconds, a chef came whipping out of the kitchen mumbling something that, I suppose, could have been English, and returned shortly with the same plate except now with beets. Whether intentional or not, the berries had no business on the same plate with these beets. Next we ordered grilled octopus, which we normally love. It came out tough and again inexplicably slathered in fruit - mango in this case - which would itself have killed the eating experience had the octopus not already been killed by leather-like toughness as a result of preparation errors. We ordered prawns next and, sadly, they proved an equal match for the toughness of the octopus but, mercifully, were served without fruit....but unfortunately also without much flavor: they were simply thrown on top of bed of linguini in a thin red sauce. The concept of this place, the location, the quirky interior and general vibe give this place some potential but the execution is way, way off and needs to improve soon if this place is going to make it.
