"I will try this place again in a few months and do a follow up review...Location: is slightly challenging to find parking because of the many other businesses in that vicinity. I am giving it a bad rating because the acai blend based was freezer burn. My friends had the same experience as well. Pretty bum to give that rating because I enjoyed the overnight oats and chia pudding. (But sadly the main star is the acai based) They do have a generous selection of toppings though. The staff was friendly and the line/assembly moves quickly. Next time I will give the acai bowl another try and pick some empanadas as well."

"Six of us went to this restaurant on a Saturday night, and it was pretty crowded. We were seated by had a wait, the Manager Oscar comped us our table a appetizer plate. The dishes we had and all different were really tasty, however on friend had the November Special was delicious. It should be kept on the menu as one of their regular dishes. Our waitress was exceptional. I recommended a family member that went there on Wednesday with a friend for lunch. They had soup and salad. She said the soup of cold, (I would have let the waitress know at the time) she said salad was good. They asked for bread and was told it was not served unless they had pasta. I would think bread would definitely be an accompaniment and definitely included with Soup and Salad. With restaurants losing customers perhaps they need to be a little more accomodating to customers requests."

"First time there and service and food were exceptional! My wife and I are from LA and are used to waiters not giving a care about service; Jazmine on the other hand was exceptional with her presentation and smile. She really made an effort to make us all feel welcome and appreciated for our business. When I hesitated on my beer selection she gave a sample of the ones I was interested in. Food was delivered timely and was unique in its taste and side/s. My only recommendation would be to have a little music on patio in the background for ambience but overall a 5-star experience! Jasmine really made the dining experience memorable!! Also the female host with dark complexion and braided pony tail was excellent with her smile and pleasant welcome; Service: Dine in Meal type: Brunch Price per person: $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4 Recommended dishes: BBQ"

"This review is strictly on the service as the food has remained consistently good. I've also taken as much time as possible to allow for as an objective experience as possible. When the owners/staff are speaking animatedly and with more energy with other Indian patrons who are sitting at the bar--whether or not they are family friends, etc, but go completely silent when they serve, that's a red flag. I was in the mood for Indian food and was in the area running errands, so I decided to stop by. I didn't really think much of the interaction initially when I walked in and was seated, but this question is directed mainly at the man and woman whom I've seen the last two times I've been here. Is there a reason for the difference in demeanor? There was another family who came in and were seated for dinner shortly before I left, and I noticed they were treated the same way--with complete silence. I'd consider this a nuance of this place specifically since I've been to Indian restaurants in Diamond Bar, Ontario, and Pomona, and there are distinctly more interactive. I wouldn't consider this a nuance of introversion based on what I've seen or heard. I'm not looking to have a heart-to-heart conversation but at least have a basic level of interaction like a thank you or welcome. I thanked the man each time my water was refilled, and I also said thank you when leaving. NO REPLY at any point, and this is not an exaggeration or embellishment of the experience. This has been consistent. If you're going to order for takeout, you're fine. If you're good with silence, you're fine too. I'll stick with Curryland in Pomona. That's a rougher part of Pomona in a small and dense parking lot. The food there is just as good, and least there's an inkling of customer service. I'm done with this place."

"It 's not technically a secret menu item, but you need to let them know ahead of time (by at least a few days) if you want to order the Beef Wellington. You might assume that this means it is of a quality that is uniquely exquisite, and I can assure you that this assumption is 100% correct. This dish is literally made in part by a pastry-chef, and the moment you take a bite of the absurdly-delicate shell of I-don 't-even-know-what, you 'll understand why you have to arrange for this sort of treatment: it 's like an opera in your mouth. Underneath that mantle of what I assume is an elevated form of dough reserved for the better seats in heaven, there is a mushroom duxelle that I 'm quite certain would qualify for the dictionary entry if you were to look up the word unctious. Then, the filet. Is there an adequate word in the English language for a perfect medium-rare steak? The best part is that you actually have to be reminded that you 're eating an exquisite piece of beef underneath all of these charms, and it 's only responsible to forewarn you that dipping it in the au jus with which it 's served might just awaken you to a level of luxury you will struggle to equal in other establishments. I won 't even mention how good the wagyu-truffle ravioli was, or how their wedge-salad is served with fully a 3 oz triangle of delicately veined roquefort (bleu cheese) and bacon-bits made of *actual, perfectly cured smoky bits of bacon*. Point being: if you eat meat, this is something you should put on your bucket list. You 're not going to find a better meal anytime soon, after all. 10/10, would recommend."
