My friend and I went for coffee and dessert and were extremely impressed. The service was excellent; the server was extremely attentive and personable. The latte and macchiato were rich and creamy. And, the lemon meringue pie (brand new menu item, and I was having it on the very first day!) was out of this world! Truly! I say that as a native New Yorker who remembers excellent lemon meringue pies in NYC diners in the 1970s. If you like lemon meringue pies, you will not be disappointed!

Met a friend for lunch on a holiday. Reservation was easy to make, though venue did change seating from outside to inside (it was freezing outside, so no worries!). Food menu had plenty of variety and creative dishes, including a hot drinks menu. Entrees all looked intriguing and dessert menu would have sold itself if I hadn't been so full! Food was cooked perfectly (I had the Steak Frites with fall vegetable side) and I really enjoyed the range of texture and flavor. Seating was sufficiently apart so that the noise level was not bad at all. Prices were reasonable for the food provided. Lastly, service was informed, efficient and polite/friendly. Plenty of parking, even on a day where a lot of snow was still on the ground. Definitely no complaints and I will be back again! I recommend this restaurant (Montgomery County venue) without reservation!
