We had a great lunch today. The lentil soup and special eggplant part sandwich was excellent. Our reservation was at 1 pm and it was full up and noisy when we first sat down. By the time we were finished the place had cleared out. Declan and Maddie, our servers, were on top of it - polite, timely and friendly. Great meal in a busy place - be sure to make reservations.
