One of my favourite restaurants ever! Great Greek food. Get the lamb chops or rib-eye. MAKE RESERVATIONS! Or go early. I have been going here for 10+ years and it's been consistent.

I used to manage this cafe. Nico is a great barista. So is Brusk. Authentic Northern Italian espresso. Great for networking as startups/VCs/Engineers all camp out here.

The coffee can be good or really bad depending on the barista. But if you are desperate and want to take a chance, go for it. I'd recommend asking any of the managers to pull you a good shot of 'spro.

I love this place! One of the few Indian restaurants where they make everything fresh. You can taste the individual spices in the food. Easy to go gluten free, or if you have other dietary restriction
