    I ordered lobster grilled cheese sandwich and it was delicious. My guest ordered Greek chicken wrap it looked amazing and she confirmed it was good. We also ordered mimosas and they were perfect. Our waiter was John and he was very knowledgeable about food and very friendly and inviting. My overall experience was amazing.

    Always a great meal at The Union Kitchen! We brought guests for a business lunch; their first time to enjoy TUK and they were impressed. We know they will be back! And service, as always, was perfect. Can’t wait to go again!

    Excellent service as always. Delicious and affordable lunch specials and you can’t beat the $8 Hugo Spritz at lunch.

    I sat out on the patio. There was a dog with a couple at a table next to me, and if I’m not mistaken, the dog wasn’t a service dog so I kinda lost my appetite. The waiter Evan poured water in the dog bowl and the dog sniff in the pitcher and it was the same pitcher that he served the water out of so I didn’t drink any more water after the first glass after being seated.  not sure if dogs are required in your establishment. I didn’t see the dog until after we was seated.
