"I recently dined at your establishment and, while I was looking forward to a pleasant meal, I encountered some issues that I feel need to be addressed.Upon being seated, my party and I experienced a significant delay of 25 minutes before any staff member approached us. It appeared there was some confusion over who was responsible for serving our section. This lack of attention made us feel overlooked and undervalued as customers.Additionally, the overall atmosphere suggested that the staff was under a great deal of stress, which may be indicative of deeper operational challenges. The impression was that the restaurant is struggling, which is concerning for patrons who expect a certain standard of service and dining experience.I am providing this feedback not out of dissatisfaction but in the hope that it will be constructive. I believe that with better communication and organization, the dining experience could be greatly improved for all guests.Thank you for taking the time to read my concerns. I hope to see positive changes in the future and wish you all the best in your business endeavors."

"We sampled the In Prosciutto Happiness, A Lotta Burrata, and the Kale Caesar with Boquerones (a salty fish similar to anchovies). The portions were generous enough to satisfy three people. The In Prosciutto Happiness, topped with a wonderful fried egg, was particularly enjoyable. The salad was packed with flavor and paired beautifully with the pizzas. They also have a commendable selection of cocktails, wine, and beer. For dessert, we treated ourselves to a scrumptious bread pudding with caramel—rich, perfectly baked, and just sweet enough. We almost couldn’t finish it! However, I felt that a coffee would have truly enhanced the meal. While they don’t serve coffee, they kindly allow you to bring your own, which I might consider—perhaps heading to Victor's afterward for a nice cup to complete the experience. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant and encourage you to share your experiences. They are genuinely committed to keeping their menu fresh and providing quick, friendly service. Great work, team!"

"We had our wedding reception at Zaucer. Able to rent the whole restaurant and our wedding party could order anything off the menu. Served everyone quickly and food was amazing. Post-Covid, I highly recommend renting for parties or receptions!!! Offer vegan regular crust, pan crust, gluten-free crust. Great topping choices. Have many pizzas to choose from just specify vegan cheese vegan meat., If you’re in a hurry order online pick-up. I like to create my own pizza with pan crust, red sauce, vegan cheese, vegan sausage, sun dried tomatoes, jalapeños, seasoned potato wedges. Highly Recommend"

"We 've ordered from this Garlic Crush location for some two years and always enjoyed the food. However, their quality in service and portions has steadily declined. Today 's experience will be our final one. I just picked up an order that included the kid 's kefta plate which according to their website comes: with hummus. Includes a small drink, pita bread, and your choice of rice, fries, or salad. We have ordered this item before and were satisfied customers. This is why we ordered it again, and the attached photo is why we are upset. No rice and dry meat. Mistakes happen, so I called to notify staff and see if I can swing back by to pick up rice. The staff member that answered was rude and dismissive. He said that an order of extra pita (why by the way, is a separate line item on our receipt) somehow...exempted us from getting the rice we paid for? I expressed confusion, even reading off the menu description, but he double downed that the extra pita requested would exempt the rice paid for (so two purchases would give one item). Then he told me to just order (and pay again) another side of rice or reorder the kefta plate. In other words, there was no solution. Mistakes happen, things get busy, whatever. But the restaurant was not busy this afternoon and the response I got was not okay. This location has become increasingly problematic with missing items and no basic foundation of customer service. Good luck if you get what you pay for."

"We met some friends here and had a reservation for on a Friday night. The place was busy the whole time, and crowded at the door which is a pinch spot-not for claustrophobics. Happy hour prices include some small plates from a limited menu that can be ordered from any seat in the restaurant. Roasted cauliflower with no sauces was plain but healthy, and the chicken wings were good with two sauces one sweet and one mildly spicy. I picked this place for the gluten-free options and fresh sounding menu. It was good for both. The quinoa-kale salad with salmon or chicken extra was good. The waiter said they could not remove the jalapenos from the salad but we could not taste them at all. Salad was delicious. Recommend a reservation since this isn't a super big place."
