It’s really loud. There for lunch on Saturday and it was packed. Up in the library we were practically sitting in the laps of the people at the next tables. But, the food was really good and reasonably priced. We would go back.

We were originally sat inside but the music was so loud you couldn’t carry on a conversation. The seat inside was a couch that was so low I had to perch on the edge to reach the table - and I’m tall. There also was a very off putting smell so we moved outside. It took about 45 minutes to get our food and unfortunately, despite indicating that my friend could not eat gluten the meal came with the items that should have been excluded. The waitress even confirmed our order. So her meal had to be remade (it was comped). Service was exceptionally slow and mediocre.

Food was delicious. But, the Avocado Toast appetizer was very messy/difficult to eat and not for sharing.
