Its a short tour, but it is incredible to see how they grow almost all of their greens on-site. Carve out time to visit Neon Greens as soon as you can - its worth the trip!

Today, I was blessed to find my favorite spot at the bar open. This is a great vantage point to witness how a well run restaurant functions.

The Lindbergh Tartine was on point today with delicious sausage gravy over house-made sourdough, two sunny side up eggs and the always fantastic crispy potatoes. Soooo gooood! The pleasing decor, cute bistro-style tables and live plants makes this spot feel so warm. After coming here multiple times, I sometimes look for small improvements that I might suggest, but I'm consistently unsuccessful! With that said, I do think it's time to put some purse hooks up under the bar seating....still getting a solid 5-Star review! Come to Ivy Cafe and see for yourself!

A couple of friends who are vegan came along and they had plenty of options too, which made it easy for everyone to enjoy. The vibe was busy but not overwhelming--we just missed the weekend lunch rush, so timing helped. It's counter service, so you order up front and they bring the food out to your table.

There was no place to check in for a table and there weren't separate lines for eat in and carry out. I got there first and didn't want to order before my friend got there. I saw an empty table so I sat down to wait. I was nicely told by one of the workers who was carrying around table numbers that I needed to be assigned a table number first. It was unclear when or how to get assigned a number, maybe when you order? Although the line moved pretty quickly it kept growing so when my friend arrived I ended up ordering online. Then I had to ask for a table. I wish they had clear signage or some way to inform about the process. I had the flying avocado turkey wrap which was fresh and delicious, although I didn't taste any avocado. Also ordered the green chili queso with chips which was great. I placed another order to go to take the Cajun shrimp boil home for dinner. It was good, too, although I should have had the hot dish for lunch and taken home the cold wrap. I'd like to try the avocado toast. Next time I will stand in line and order.

My partner got the Malibu Melt and mentioned it was full of flavor but a little dry and maybe needed some more sauce. It is a small quaint little place, walk up to order and seat yourself. They close at 7 so if you're trying to go for dinner you better get in early! The employees were really nice and even let us try a chocolate chip cookie which was soo good. I definitely want to go back and try the pizza:)

That's the vibe. We started on the front patio on a Friday night and quickly realized we'd made a mistake. The doors to the interior were open and the music -- a rock-forward playlist that night -- was loud enough that we considered bailing. Our server, was unbothered when we asked to move up to the rooftop. Where we met with a new bartender and server, London, who rolled with it, got us resettled, and from that point on the night was great. London was clearly handling the bar and most of the rooftop tables, but she was attentive throughout, and made eye contact, which seems a near miracle from many 20-something these days. Bumping the score up just for the flexibility on the table move alone. The food: crab cakes were genuinely good, not life-changing, but well above the weak-crab-cake bar that exists in most of the world, served simply with capers and a small salad. I went off-script and ordered the wagyu burger medium rare with fontina (London mentioned cheddar is the more common pick, but the Fontina offerd a great alternative). The burger was deeply flavorful and cooked exactly right, but here's my one real note for the kitchen: toast the brioche bun. Wagyu medium-rare puts out a lot of juice, and an untoasted bun loses its structural integrity about three bites in. A quick toast would let the bun keep some additional integrate and keep up with the perfectly cooked beef. The pom buff were great, the best elevated patato tots you may come by. Beyond what we ordered, the Greek salad is a longtime go-to -- chopped, with grape leaves and pita, available in a small or large, and easily dressed up into a light meal with or without adding some protein or can be share as a self-dress bruschetta appetizer for the group if you ask for extra bread. The cheese boards are also a reliable pick. The wine list is extensive (it's a wine bar, after all), but they don't sniff at cocktails -- I had a solid fine old fashioned, and my wife shared had a Malbec that paired well with everything. Lots of gluten-free options across the menu, too. What Sasha's gets right is that it has refused to become precious. "Wine bar" reads as pretentious to some people, but this place runs as a neighborhood spot. You'll see college kids dressed way down, couples on dates dressed way up, Hawaiian shirts, oversized sweaters, the full range. It's the kind of place where you can split a bottle with your girlfriends, meet a date for drinks and a quick bite without committing to a full dinner, or roll in for brunch on the weekend. Different times of day, different vibes -- always approachable. 4.7 stars. Loses a few tenths for the front-patio music situation and the weak burger bun, but more than makes up for it on flexibility, food, and overall hang factor.

Used to love this place, but today really changed my impression…read more We stopped in for a quick drink on a beautiful Saturday. There were a few open tables, but we were asked to wait by the door while they "got situated." Meanwhile, a walk-in who arrived after us was seated at a table we had been waiting for. When we were finally seated, we were placed in direct sun. I asked if we could move to a shaded table in the corner and was told it was only for parties of three. After explaining we'd just be there briefly for a drink, we were allowed to sit there, but the interaction felt dismissive. From that point on, the experience felt rushed. We were pushed to order quickly, our menus were taken right away, and the check came almost immediately. It made what should have been a relaxed stop feel uncomfortable and transactional. I understand how busy restaurants can get, especially on nice days, but a little more consideration and courtesy would have gone a long way.

Looking at their menu I was sold immediately and knew that this place was going to be good. They carried such a variety of sandwiches and burgers, and even salads too. None of them sounded basic or boring to me. Way better than Subway or Jimmy John. I ordered through the app and my order was ready within 20 minutes. They have a big outdoor area with benches so that you can enjoy your meal when it's the weather is nice. However, there are decent numbers of seatings inside as well. I ordered the Black and Blue, the Animal and the Mango Tango salad. I liked that you can customize your order to whatever it is that you prefer like substitutes or sauce on the side. The price is reasonable in my opinion. I liked the Animal a lot. The sour dough was crunchy and toasted. The grilled chicken was a little dry but I didn't mind it. I liked the cream cheese a lot. The flavor was amazing. The Black and blue wasn't what I expected but the blue cheese sauce was a nice touch. Mango tango salad was a vegetarian option but you can add protein if you want. The candied pecans were my favorite part. I also liked that they used fresh mangos. The dressing was tangy and sweet. I highly recommend you checking out this place. I'm going back again for sure.

There is a line between simple and bland, and unfortunately revel borders the line of bland. And before you say "some people don't want all the seasonings or salt" there are alternatives that are salt free and can still make your food taste good. We spent almost 40 dollars on two small bowls and two small sides. The Brussels sprouts were roasted without anything, so they were just soggy Brussels sprouts. Along with the sweet potato side that again, could've benefited from a sprinkle of cinnamon or salt free seasoning. My bowl was good, it was brown rice, mojo chicken, steamed carrots and cilantro lime dressing on the side. The other bowl we got was chicken, steamed broccoli, brown rice with a mustard bbq type sauce. It needed teriyaki which wasn't an option. The other reason I gave this one star is the people took the order through the drive through, but when I got to the window not one word was exchanged regardless of my greeting. They asked for a tip on the credit card reader too. Got our food from the window without any words at all.

They provide such a delicious selection of nutritious meals that are very reasonably priced. I ate my meal at a table inside, but it's super cool that they also have a drive-thru if you're on the go. The inside was clean, bright, and welcoming. Everything on their menu sounded so yummy, so I had a hard time deciding what to try. I ended up ordering a small BYO bowl at the front counter. It comes with your choice of 1 base, 1 veggie, 1 protein, and 1 sauce. I got mine with brown rice, sweet potato, grilled chicken, fresh herbs, and cilantro lime sauce. I sat down at a table, and my food was brought out to me shortly after. I was immediately blown away by my bowl's flavors. Their house-made cilantro lime sauce was INCREDIBLE. In fact, my partner tried some of mine and loved it so much that he asked the employee if he could have some for his burrito. I also tried the Hang 10, one of their raw cold pressed juices. It includes watermelon, pineapple, lime, and ginger juice blend. While the juice was very cold and refreshing, I probably wouldn't pay $8 again for it. Glad I tried it, though! I am SO ready for my next visit. I left feeling nourished and fulfilled. Highly recommend!
