This joint is new, and with any new place there are kinks to be worked out. Overall the people are friendly and the place is clean.

Being a veggie, I had the veggie sandwich, which is basically the "fixins" of their burgers without the meat. Now while they brag on how fresh their beef is, you would think they'd apply that same freshness to their mushrooms. The mushrooms on my burger looked and tasted like they came from a can. I believe we can do better than that. So, if you do the veggie sandwich, skip the mushrooms. For $2.69 plus tax, you still get a decent sandwich.

The natural-cut fries are good, salty, but good. If you do the cajun seasoned fries, prepare for next-level saltiness!

Always great to have the vegetarian migas or the angel hair pasta with veggies and feta cheese. Yum-ness!

While it's a splurge to have the pizza here because of the dough (read=$$$), extra cheese with red onion and feta just tastes so much better here.

Christin and I ate there last night and it's soooo good to be able to eat anything on the menu. She and the taco salad and I had the "Big Taquito". Deliciousness all around.

I've been twice. Had the pizza one time (which I thought was a bit expensive until I saw how big it was!) and the cheese sandwich the next. While both were tasty, the cook could've really laid off of some of that pesto (on both dishes!). Also, is it really too much to ask to add the choice of a garden burger on the menu? I mean, really people....

Then (during the second visit) I was invited back to hear a "jazz" band later that night. I thought, "Cool! Jazz music near my apartment!". HELL NO! Tell me, when did the word "jazz" become just a phrase for somebody playin' live?! Talk about blown expectations!

My verdict: It'll do if you're hungry.
