I went there a month or so ago and had the smoked salmon salad that comes with arugula, avocado, cherry tomatoes and orange with mayo dressing. That time the arugula was not washed properly and I could feel the dirt on my teeth. I have a restaurant and I understand that sometimes things like that might happen especially if someone is training. The second time I went there I got the same thing and it was they way it should. The third time we found a hair.The forth time I got the salad only this time the salad looked more like a soup because of the amount of dressing. Now yesterday I went there again: ""May I have the arugula salad with the smoked salmon please? and a wine spritzer"" The guy comes back and he brings me a different salad made of arugula, goat cheese, pine nuts and cherry tomatoes and the salmon on top. I explained that this is not what I wanted and I showed him in the menu but I said it ok I just won't eat the goat cheese. Who on earth would combine goat cheese with smoked salmon?. Anyway when I ask for the check they give me this: They charge me for an arugula salad $13 and then under it they add: grilled salmon $4 !!!!! So I had to pay 17 dollars for a salad that costs 13 because the waiter does not know the menu. And then for the first time they charge me each spritzer the full price of a glass of wine which is $8.50. I complain to the waiter and he says he can only fix the price of the spritzers and when I went tho a guy behind the counter he says that he can only fix the price of the salad!!!! Anyway I left them $40 and left and never going back. I guess after the first incident I should not have gone back but I live in the hood and thought I should support local cafes... I went 5 times there within a month and they have nerve to tell me that it was my mistake and that I ordered the wrong things and that mistake happened the fifth time and not the first. If you want to go there go and have a frape or a beer. No one seems to know the menu.
