I've visited the office - so friendly! 5 stars so far.
And I have an appointment next Thursday, so I'll update my review then when my mouth is numb and I'm drooling on my keyboard :)

Last time we came here it took them over 15 minutes to even acknowledge that we would like a seat. So we left.
This time the service was great (until i wanted a refill on my coffee and some salt on the table) but the food proved to be uninspired in the kitchen, despite the very unique and inspired descriptions on the menu. Great vibe for brunch, but we did not leave feeling full or satisfied, which was tragic because we could have gone to some good places for half the price.
I had the salmon hash and Austin had to eggs Benedict, both were sub-par.

Neighborhood: Columbia City
The small plates (beet salad, cheeses, etc) are indeed small, but a few of those plus an entree is plenty for a meal! Oh and they have a great and very affordable bottle of house wine.
Also, love Verve Wine Bar, which is a block away. Perfect place to go and stimulate your palette before dinner at Medusa.

Outdoor seating is a plus, but I've never experienced it in the summa' time. IF the margaritas weren't made with shitty bright yellow mix and served in fish bowls I might go there for happy hour. (La Carta de Oaxaca you've made me a snob).
OH! and going to the restroom is kinda a pain (similar to Pink Door, outside of restaurant and you need a code)
They have cool chairs though.

El Sabor de Oaxaca
Category: Mexican
Neighborhood: Pioneer Square
The food is bland and the drink selection is pretty much Pepsi or Orange drink..
I had the fish tacos, they were... meh. Chips and salsa come with each meal. The chips are actually really good (light but crispy), the salsa is watery.
I had chips/salsa (free), fish tacos (with refried beans and rice), added guac (75¢) and an orange soda for $12 (tip included).
I wanted to love you Sabor, I really did.

Their brunch (food and coffee) blows, but they will let you linger forever which is nice when you wanna digest the paper or watch a game.
GREAT music and staff at all times and usually a good turn out of local and non local musicians looking for a place to wet their whistle.

Did I go to the same store as everyone else did? Seems so, but after seeing a white bathingsuit that had obviously been worn by someone when Aunt Flo was visiting, I had to leave.
The small size is appealing, but I'm not sure what all the hype is about. Sorry Sugartown Vintage... your logo is way more awesome than your store.

The movies they get here can be sub-par, but every once in a while they get some gems and they get really busy, so either wait for it to lull, go to the early show, or buy tickets way in advance ( you can get them online now!)
They also have fantastic gift options if you are at a loss for what to get a friend or even a client that lives in the area.
"And don't miss our weekend breakfast specials!
$3 Bloody Marys and Mimosas ALL DAY LONG Sunday...
Come in and get the hang-over started ALL OVER AGAIN!"
Oh and the bathrooms are so ghetto - there are no words.
They have Wii bowling and football on many tvs and the bfast is cheap and greasy just how you need it... after a night at late the Waterwheel :)

It all happened so fast and painlessly - Kyle Beffa was gentle and personable - asking all the right questions, but not while his fingers were in my mouth.
I got the $150 new patient deal which is great since I don't have dental insurance! I will be back.
