I am not sure when they started doing business on Sunday but I am glad they have! I have always enjoyed my weekday lunches here so it's great that they are open for Sunday. It provides a solid Sunday alternative to the other brunch haunts around town (minus the long wait time). I kinda like the fact that it's a bit of a hidden gem as it hasn't been terribly busy on the Sundays I've dropped in on. But on the other hand I want people to patron the place so they don't end up shutting down service on Sundays!
They have a great quiet patio where you can sip on your coffee and enjoy the beautiful architecture in the Exchange. The crowd is pretty varied and everyone seems to be caught up in good conversations but it's low key and not loud.
I don't arrive early enough for breakfast as it ends around 11 am or something like that but they offer lots of great salads and sandwiches that run from light and healthy to filling. I had a lovely fontina, goat cheese and pesto paninni today on French bread. And their "Salmon Salmon salad" ($12.50) serves up a trio of seared, smoked and salmon rillette on mixed greens dressed with a citrus vinaigrette. It's an utterly healthy and delicious lunch! They serve good coffee and a nice selection of loose leaf teas.
Service is nice though food service is a tad slow relative to the number of orders that are going into the kitchen but I assume my foods being made to order then at least!Listed in: Great Casual Downtown Lunch…, The best in the Exchange, Brunch/Breakfast

Just opened so we dropped by to give it a whirl. Between us we split the Roasted tostada and the Porchetta burger with salad. Along with the very good loose leaf tea it was a nice Diner. All the items has a good flavor to them, however I thing she picked the better tea.
Over all a good meal at a good price, and an interesting concept for a restaurant, it will be interesting to see how it does. Yes we will be back, I just do not know when.
