this used to be my favorite spot

  • Yes, I would go back!

i still love their brunch menu, but dinner is not as exciting or satisfying as it used to be...menu hasn't changed much and i cannot quite put my finger on it. maybe it is the lack of seasonal accents (even though the ingredients are supposed to be locally grown) service is uneven-sometimes it's hard to get the wait staff's attention and i've experienced long wait to get the check more than a few times. noise level can be quite high on busy nights

Some Hints:

  • The best reviews give a clear sense of why you liked or disliked a restaurant, bar, or store. And that means details. Mention specifics dishes, type of crowd, pros and cons...
  • If it's helpful to compare one place to another, go for it.
  • Come up with clever, funny, pithy subject lines, and write in the first person.
  • Don't forget to read the user rating guidelines and rules.
