    We came here to celebrate a birthday party and it was absolutely amazing. Our waiter: Bailey was personable, friendly & informative on everything at the restaurant. Definitely will be returning, everything was great from the service to the food/drinks!

    An unmitigated disaster. The wind tunnel effect coming off of the patio is awful and we were seated directly opposite the door. Every time it opened we got a blast of cold air. Service was indifferent or worse and the food was disappointingly ordinary. A shockingly bad performance from a Lettuce restaurant.
