Had a reservation for a big group and we walked straight in without wait. Our group loved the martini flights. The food and drinks were fantastic. I loved the salad I got with chicken.

The mushroom pasta with an addition of the most perfect steak was amazing. The flavors melded so well together. The steak was like butter melting in my mouth. The carrot cake and chocolate mousse were rich but delicious. The cocktail that was called flamingo shirt I believe was one of the best drinks I’ve had.

We really enjoyed our meal. Went with a girlfriend before a play. Our server was very attentive. The noise level was a little loud for us, but the other patrons didn't seem to mind. Let me say, we are boomers and the crowd was somewhat younger.

Walking in to grab a bite to eat and was greeted by the host who had a stank look on his face. He seemed annoyed we had walked in to get a table. Didn’t say one word to us. Then my friend walks in to meet us and was treated the same way. No words with a stank look. We walked out and went down the street to another restaurant with much better service. If you don’t like your job find another job not in customer service. Will not go back ever!

Went here for lunch and it was a great experience. We ordered avocado toast, the smash burger and a kale salad. Definitely recommend. All great. Will definitely be back.

The food and drink were very good. I LOVED that there were Zero Proof beverages available on the menu and they were DELICIOUS. Tasted like a craft cocktail, without the hangover. I had the smashburger and fingerling potatoes. They were very good. We also got the focaccia app and oh my goodness that bread and the spreads that came with it were heavenly. Service was on point and loved the cozy neighborhood restaurant vibe. Would highly recommend.

The burger at common ground was delicious ! It was a great mix of great ingredients but it was still a real cheeseburger. Id go back for that burger.

We went for lunch — we were seated quickly and kindly, and service was fast and the right amount of attentive. Our Zero Proof drink and two entrees (smash burger and shrimp and grits) were delicious. Zero complaints! For brunch we would have loved to see some espresso coffee drinks (cappuccino, latte, etc) because we love a good coffee!

One visit is all it took for this to become a favourite for us. The focaccia starter is unreal. All their dishes are unique and incredible. The service is great, and everything is super fresh. The pasta is so interesting; it’s definitely something to try! Best hidden gem so far.

This was our second time and we're very glad we came back. We visited a few months back and it was OK. This time all the food was outstanding. The room is a bit loud which is why I didn't give it 5 stars, but nevertheless recommend. The appetizer portions are generous. Don't skip the shrimp.

Stopped in for brunch on a cold Saturday afternoon. They were fairly busy but my party of two were seated with no wait. Service was good and the food came out pretty quick. I ordered the Breakfast Sandwich which comes on a buttered croissant with American cheese, local AF sausage and a scrambled egg. The quality of the sausage and bread were good, I wasn't crazy about the "scrambled" egg. My partner had the Smash Burger "Breakfast Style" (egg any way + two pieces of bacon) and it was top tier. From the bun to the double black hawk wagyu patties that just seemed to melt in your mouth, it checked all the boxes. Can't wait to come back and try their lunch menu.
