The food is amazing, 7 friends and myself ate here, we had garlic knots, Buffalo cauliflower bites, ravioli, eggplant parmigiano, and panini sandwiches. It was all delicious! The atmosphere was social and encouraged enjoyable conversation, highly rated for a fantastic evening!

The half sandwich/soup combo is a pretty good deal.

The Modern Caesar was perfection! It’s so good you don’t even need chicken with it. Recommend having it tossed! Great portion and flavor. The dressing was just the right amount, the crunches were amazing and the avocado was icing on the cake. Can’t wait to have this again!

my take-out/online order experience has been incredibly poor. for the past month I have ordered the special sandwich each week and every time, my pick-up time AND placement is inaccurate. I understand being busy during lunch time, however my order has not been in the “shelf” area specified on my confirmation, instead I have had to ask for it and every time, it’s sitting on their back counter unaccounted for. If I didn’t ask for my food I’d be waiting forever for someone to notice that my order had not been delivered to me. today, for example, I was given a pick-up time of 11:55. I ordered at 11:35. I arrived at 11:45 and noticed there were SEVERAL orders behind the main counter area. I confirmed they received my order, and proceeded to wait while watching the bags where orders were being fulfilled. after another 10min (when I was supposed to receive my order) I asked again, to which a man then asked a girl preparing tickets/orders who responded “yep”. I still did not receive my order. I gave them 10 more minutes, asked again, at which point the same man went to the back counter and grabbed a bag that I know to have been sitting there since I arrived. I was incredibly frustrated when I had to point out to that same man that my sandwich I asked for at 1145, 1155, and now 1205 had been sitting behind him THE ENTIRE TIME. I used to love this location but efficiency is nonexistent. very disappointing. at least make things right by offering a free cookie and chips or something. anything. maybe a discount on my next order? I don’t know but the customer service is terrible here.

A fantastic experience. Service was great and the restaurant had a relaxing vibe. As for the food, everything was scrumptious. My top pick: The modern Caesar salad – absolutely scrumptious. Will come back!

Nice menu, great service in the front, and the food looks better than the menu photos.

Spicy curried couscous is a MUST try. It has a hint of spiciness and the curried couscous is very flavorful! Ordered a not so fried chicken sandwich with Chipotle sauce on the side. Definitely not disappointed! Bf ordered the Peruvian beef and they were kind to let him request it to be made in a wrap. Very accommodating! Soup of the day was creamy potato soup. The soup was not that creamy but Definitely pretty healthy! Social distancing dine in seating. Left with a full tummy

I’m back in SD and I don’t know how I never heard of this place!! We had a celebration catered from Mendocino Farms today by recommendation of a friend and OMG!!!! This was by FAR the best tasting sandwich array you could ever want! The Tuscan steak sandwich was scrumptious! A perfect Club sandwich with a lovely spicy avocado spread, YUMMY! The Caprese sandwich, a big hit with non meat eaters, as well as the chicken, and the prosciutto and fig sandwiches, and we loved every sandwich we sampled! How they dress the sandwich is key: great dressings, perfect greens, flavorful tomatoes, and other seasonings bring the flavors to top tier for sandwiches! The Oxana spicy potato salad and the Curry Cous Cous were also big hits! I Highly recommend this place, and plan to go for a lunch visit soon! Location for in-restaurant dining is large, spacious airy, with additional outside seating! To think that not being a “Mall Person”, I might not have ever known about this place! Enjoy your visit!!

I really loved the sandwich here. Though a lot of them are little bit spicy which could be a red flag for some people.
