"Went here for breakfast recently and after many days decided to write a review. We arrived at around 10A. The line was relatively short with only a handful of patrons in front of us. The line to order took about 8 minutes, give or take. After looking over the menu I ordered the Pesto Avocado Toast and an iced chai tea latte. I also tried to order a dessert for later but they didn't have several of the ones I wanted so I settled on a cheese danish. We found a table right away and sat down. After a couple tens of minutes we started feeling like it was taking a long time. I looked at our receipt and noticed we placed our order 26 minutes prior (the receipt was time stamped). I decided to give them 4 more minutes before heading up to the counter to inquire about our order. They said that they were busy. And, just for reference, the patio was fairly empty and there were several tables available inside, so they weren't, in my opinion, 30 minute wait for food busy. Interestingly, right after i asked, our food came out. So either it was good timing or it was already ready and just sitting back there in the kitchen. Either way, 30 minutes is a terribly long wait for food. I'll only review my food. The pesto avocado toast was blah. The lettuce on top was shredded iceberg and, it was sad and starting to wilt and brown around the edges. It added no flavor or texture to the toast whatsoever. And it actually made the toast look quite sad and unattractive. The pesto was actually mixed into the avocado...weird. I don't know, but I expected the avocado to be smashed, the pesto to be drizzled over the top, the lettuce to be something else all together...the best part was the crumbled cheese. My chai was tasty, thankfully. Later in the day when i ate my danish i wasn't blown away, at all. The cheese portion wasn't very flavorful. Again, just kinda blah. Overall, if you're looking for a gathering spot, i guess this is a cool-ish place, centrally located. But the wait for food isn't great and i wasn't blown away by any means by the food. Edit: addition after response from business owner...I'm glad to hear you're switching up the lettuce because it was just not working. Hopefully the mixed greens will be better. To address the long wait, however, perhaps having more staff in the kitchen to accommodate for your unusually large amounts of door dash orders would be a good idea. Leaving people waiting for 30+ minutes is still, in my opinion, inexcusable. Especially at breakfast...eggs and smashed avocado shouldn't take that long. I've absolutely been to places that have been packed full and haven't waited that long. So I'm not sure what's going on in your kitchen."

"The establishment was beautifully decorated and very exciting to walk into. We arrived early for our 5pm reservation by 25 minutes and the hosts graciously offered to sit us immediately. We were celebrating our oldest daughter’s 9th birthday, we planned to get apps, milkshakes, dinner and some alcoholic beverages. Our waitress clearly had a large section of tables to care for which I believed took away from the experience. When she greeted us, she came over with waters and asked what we would like for drinks/ apps. As it was my daughter’s birthday we allowed the kids to order milkshakes to start before dinner and we ordered Mac cheese pops, rainbow sliders. The Mac cheese pops were the highlight of our experience, they were exact copy cats of the Cheesecake Factory ones, 10/10. The rainbow sliders were not edible. The buns were hard and it seemed they had been sitting around a while, the burger itself was chewy. My daughter ordered the fried Oreo milkshake. She loved the appearance and definitely gave her the ooooo-ahhh effect we were going for. She said the milkshake was very yummy. Some of the topping included were fried Oreos, and pancakes. The pancakes were burnt/ very charred on one side. It took about 20 minutes for the apps to come out but it took close to 40-45 minutes for the milkshakes. Normally, we don’t mind waiting however we did not see our server during this entire time. She took the drink/app order, other staff dropped off the food, so the next time we saw her she brought the bar Drinks one milkshake, immediately left to go get the other milkshake. So after all this time, when she brought the last shake we told her about the sliders,she did offer new ones but at this point she hadn’t even taken our dinner order and we have been then for over hour. We ended up making the decision to bring our kids to a different restaurant for dinner because of how the experience was going. So after leaving Sugar Factory with empty stomachs we went to HardRock."
