"My daughter and I decided on looking at a map of the area and the first restaurant she pointed to, we would try out. This made for a rememberable dining experience and not in a good way. First, we entered the establishment prior to lunch and the hostess/waitress' back was towards us while she was at the bar talking to another employee so she might not have heard us come in, but the other employee saw us and made no mention to her that we are standing at the front desk/entrance. After about 3 minutes she turns around and was surprised to see us there (First red flag). We chose the outdoor patio after being seated and offered beverages. My daughter asked the waitress about the difference in some of the dishes she was interested in and the waitress seemed as if this was too much (Second red flag) of a hassle so my daughter ordered a simple Ceasar salad and I ordered Wild Mushroom and Walnut Tortellini with a glass of Chianti. The Ceasar salad was wilted with way too much dressing on top and not worth the $10.49 price and my order of tortellini pasta was way past al dente with the ends flopping around in the sauce. It was palatable at best. (Third red flag) The air around the patio area smelled of off gas(old food that has been stuck in a pipe for months). If you look at their logo the words Italian, Market and Café are separated. I think the products they sale or display fits into the category of Italian Market, but I have tasted way better food on the side streets of a Roman café near tourist traps."

"I made an evening reservation for my wife and I at Mason Jar Kitchen for Valentine 's Day. Previous to this my only experience at the restaurant was a business lunch in the first few months after they opened (almost 6 years ago! . Our reservation was for 7:15pm. We arrived at 7:16pm and were met with a very busy restaurant, which is expected given the holiday. We were immediately invited to step up to the host station and they checked us in. While we waited my wife and I looked at the cupcakes and other tasty looking treats at the bakery, Cupcake , which shares the location with the restaurant. We were seated within 15 minutes. Not too shabby for Valentine 's night. Once at our table our server greeted us with menus, waters, and informed us of the night 's special: A four course Valentine 's Dinner where you choose a shared appetizer, your preferred salads, entrees, and shared dessert for a reasonable price. Optionally including a paired glass of wine per course, which was also tailored to the individual salad and entrees each person selected, for an even more reasonable price. Once we made our selections the server went off to the incredibly busy kitchen. We only knew this because my wife went to use the rest room before the appetizer arrived and walked past the kitchen. She shared that it was very energetic but positive. With this perspective we began to observe the rest of the staff and realized all of the staff were putting forth a huge effort to deliver food to patrons on time and keep the vibe very positive and light. Their efforts were very well received and it made the night. The meal service was fantastic. When we were finishing one course, the next was arriving. No waiting and wanting. The food itself was amazingly on point and delicious. The creme brulee dessert, along with its wine pairing, was a knock out. We definitely recommend the creme brulee! Thank you to the staff of Mason Jar Kitchen, especially those on staff that night. You made it happen! <3"
