Great pretzel as an appetizer--disappointed that no mustard was available (we were told they were out), as only one of us could eat the tasty cheese dip (lactose intolerance). Bison meatloaf is always good, but this time it needed a bit more of the gravy (meatloaf was moist, but needed some for potatoes). One of us tried the New England corned beef dinner for the first time. Flavor-wise the corned beef was far, far better than your standard corned beef, though one slice was tremendously fatty to the point of there being more fat than meat (I expect fat in brisket, but this was more than expected). Sides (carrots, boiled potatoes, and cabbage with a bit of spice) were flavorful and well cooked. Overall, would order the New England dinner again. Unfortunately, as usual, there was no room for dessert--maybe one of these days....

Everyday Kitchen worked with us to accommodate a reunion of approximately 20 friends. When we got there a semi-private room was set up. The wait staff was pleasant and provided great service. The food was very good and when the chef stepped out to speak with us he found out it was one of the people's birthday and made a special meal for her.

Awesome design as soon as you walk in the door it feels one of a kind! People were amazing and so kind, the food was to die for and so filling. The drinks were so good and everything was as affordable as going to a chain restaurant- Overly satisfied and will return often❤️

Very interesting menu with lots of appealing options. Our party of four picked all different dishes and everyone enjoyed. The pretzel was a great appetizer to share. Gina was a super friendly and attentive server. We had a great time.

The new menu has a few new things as well as some tried-and-true favorites (the diablo dish!). The bar continues to put out good cocktails, wine and beer at reasonable prices. The staff is helpful with specifics, like tequila options. We went on a Saturday at 730pm and were at the tail-end of a reservation for 45 post-kids' soccer tournament...it was loud but only lasted until about 8pm. We very much want EK to succeed, so were THRILLED to see them so busy despite the temporary inconvenience.

My mom and I had brunch at Everyday Kitchen and I highly recommend it! The food was fantastic, servers were friendly and efficient, and the restaurant atmosphere was beautiful. Can't wait to return soon and try more dishes!

Food was excellent, drinks were very good and more unique. Very attentive staff. We were an hour early for our reservation and they accommodated us no problem. Would definitely go back when I am in the area, much better than anything you'd find on campus.

Traveling thru town. Wanted something local, unique, fresh, and delicious for LUNCH.We all enjoyed our lunch - Reuben Sandwich, Open Face Turkey Horshoe Sandwich, Cuban Sandwich, and Mushroom Vegan Tacos (spicy). All were fresh and delicious. Came with potato wedges.While I'm not vegan I had the corn tortilla, guacamole, pickled onion, mushrooms (grilled but not overly soft), and jalapeños. You get 2x with a side. Delicious and light as I didn't need much. Would get again.There is a restaurant and a cafe. Same menu at both so if you are in a rush like us you can order and eat in a great common area or if you prefer you can eat inside or outside with service.While we live too far away to come back I would absolutely come back again if the situation permitted.Great service and coffee as well.

Very good atmosphere and food was delicious. Really good cocktail menu and some great local brews. Service was a bit relaxed, so allow yourself time to dine. Will dine here again for sure!

Great brunch. Made a mistake in trying a breakfast sandwich shop at the university recommended by yelp. One look at the menu and we make the decision to choose Everyday Kitchen, which was the right choice. I had a bacon egg and cheese sandwich and my wife had the eggs Benedict. We shared a Brussels sprouts with tomatoes and onions and everything was delicious. If you see a recommendation for “Cracked” - change you mind and get a real brunch at everyday kitchen.

Great food and chill vibe! Food was good and drinks were savory. I wish the schnizel had some sort of sauce though.Our waitress, Lauren, was very kind and got the food out very quickly. Would come back again!

Nice atmosphere for a dinner out with friends. The drinks were delicious and the food really tasty! Especially the appetizers. The staff was super friendly & accommodating for our entire party of 8. Our server Sophie was excellent- super fun and really on top of everything the entire meal!

The attitudes of the staff members was horrible. Not only did they mess up our order but they barely had the food that was on the menu. One of the workers felt the need to confront our group OUTSIDE after we left and tell us that we must tip, even though we did. He called us names and claimed we were rude to the waitress, which was not true. He was extremely disrespectful and so was the manager. This place isn’t worth the time. The food and experience is mid.
