    $4.19 for a tiny glass of tea that tastes like cough drops

    Great family seating, good service, and wonderful food—especially the bread bowl soups. It’s an easy in-and-out spot, and you can grab pickup orders or pastries while you’re there.

    Clean place. It's decent food. A little more expensive than I like. It's not on my top destination to go. It's just ok.

    My black bean soup was great, but the lettuce in the Greek salad was frozen. Inedible. When I let them know, they jyst said, "Thanks, we'll definitely throw that lettuce out." Then went right back to stocking napkins. No gift receipt. No going back to throw out the lettuce. Nothing.

    Food is great and my orders are always correct, but it is difficult to get help no matter which way you order and it is often dirty. Pickup orders aren’t put on pickup shelves, and it is extremely inconvenient to spend several minutes trying to get someone’s attention when you are in a hurry.
