"I recently discovered this adorable coffee spot called The Red Dot and it 's an absolute gem for all the cozy vibes and chill moments. If you 're looking for a place that feels like home and offers a great selection of board games, this is it! The ambience is amazing. It 's like stepping into your cool friend 's living room, complete with comfy couches/chairs, soft lighting, and a laid-back atmosphere. The cute and homely decor instantly puts a smile on your face. But here 's the best part: they have an epic collection of board games to keep you entertained. From classics like Monopoly and Scrabble to newer favorites like Catan and UNO, they 've got something for everyone. It 's the perfect way to bond with friends over a cup of joe. Speaking of which, the coffee here is legit. Whether you 're a fan of lattes, cappuccinos, or just a good ol ' black coffee, they 've got you covered. The baristas are friendly and skilled, ensuring that your coffee game is on point. What I love about Red Dot is that it 's also a great spot to work or read a book. The cozy atmosphere and quiet corners make it the ideal place to focus and get stuff done. Plus, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee adds to the overall ambiance. Grab a cup of coffee, dive into a board game, or get lost in a book – the choice is yours. You 're guaranteed to have a rad time!"

"I really enjoy this coney. It's conveniently located near the Suburban Showcase, where I've been a vendor at several shows. It’s my go-to spot for breakfast before events. The food is delicious, the service is friendly and quick, and it’s reasonably priced."

"Meal Type: Lunch Price per Person: $30–50 Food Rating: 5/5 Service Rating: 4/5 Atmosphere Rating: 3/5 I recently dined at this restaurant for lunch and had a great experience overall. The food was exceptional, earning a perfect score of 5. Every dish was full of flavor and beautifully presented. The service was attentive and friendly, though it could have been a bit faster; I would rate it a solid 4. As for the atmosphere, it was decent but not particularly memorable, so I gave it a 3. Overall, I would recommend this spot for a delightful lunch."

"The same could be said for the plank. The tapenade was overly salty, and the garlic in the hummus was too intense. If you're a huge fan of garlic, this might suit you, but for me, it was off-putting. Having tasted authentic hummus from Lebanese, Jordanian, and Syrian cuisines, this version was quite different. It had chunks of garlic that affected both the texture and gave an unpleasant astringent taste. The pita triangles were small and not soft, and the red pepper was bland and overly oily. I appreciate the effort Jacob made to ensure I had vegan options when I picked up my order. He even got a server on the phone to discuss which items could be made vegan—mostly salads—though they wouldn’t substitute ingredients, only remove dairy, meat, or eggs. He also attempted to get a sorbet dessert that wasn't officially on the menu, but it wasn't ready yet. While the staff is friendly and the restaurant is popular, it falls short in accommodating vegans. In response to your acknowledgment of the issues in my review, it's good to clarify that you're not a vegetarian or vegan restaurant. This is important information for diners. I only realized the problems after getting home since it was late and raining, making it impractical to call for replacements. It's crucial that you ensure the quality of what you serve, particularly for takeout orders. If a dish isn't prepared properly, it shouldn't be sold. I previously credited Jacob for his efforts, so I'm unsure why that point was repeated. When I inquired about 'veganizing' a dish, the server mentioned they could only remove non-vegan items from salads. It would greatly help your customers if you clearly outlined possible substitutions and labeled your menu better for those with dietary restrictions, whether vegan or otherwise. Currently, there are very few suitable options for vegans."

"NEWEST UPDATE 8 3 23: We did try Masala again, and ordered all VERY mild, but their level of spice is just too much for us. Very good food, but too spicy for our palate, so for those who like that, it 's great food! : UPDATE And now, this was the fastest owner response to a complaint we 've ever had! The owner called me approx 1.5 hours after I called in to tell them about the spice level problem, and apologized profusely. He hadn 't even read this review yet. He is refunding our money, said the kitchen mixed up our order with another who wanted medium plus , he has new staff, and so yes, we WILL try them again. He could not have been more apologetic or nicer, and so I will update this review once more after we order mild in the future, and get to EAT mild . : Fastest review turnaround I 've ever done. Ordered at 10:51 a.m. today, it was ready by 11:04, we finished tasting at 11:25. There is VERY little chicken in the korma maybe 4 little pieces and the rest sauce. Both the aloo gobi and the korma were ordered Mild , and BOTH dishes are far too spicy for us to eat. The just over $30 for small portions of overly spiced food is now in the trash. And when we called back to ask if a mistake had been made, as we could not eat their food, the woman answering the phone didn 't seem to care AT ALL. This was our first and now LAST time ordering food from this restaurant."
