I'll try anything once, and almost everything a second time (and third, and fourth, etc.)

Fern Bar gives you the Rainforest Cafe fantasy with good food, friendly service and live music instead of sad zebra noises.
We got the burger, fried chicken, clam "chowder" (it's just soup) and the pickles, in addition to two cocktails and a dessert drink. Everything was delicious! The highlight of our night was our server Joseph, who made sure the vibes were right throughout the evening, from bringing out the bourbon ice cream float with a birthday candle and telling us about the restaurant when we moved to the lounge.
This place is a gem, and we will be back to try every cocktail on the menu.
Came here to celebrate starting a new job in the hospital! Reservation was useful as they seemed pretty busy during the Monday dinner rush. Seated quickly in the beautiful garden and got some pretty good bread. I really really enjoyed my Hugo cocktail (citrusy, minty, Gin cocktail) and B got the Godfather which she liked a lot. The real highlight, though, was the food. We shared two entrees: the salmon and ravioli. The salmon tasted delicious, perfectly crisp on the outside with a buttery full flavor and texture served over well-seasoned roasted zucchini and potatoes Al gratin (thinly sliced in a cheesy almost pie slice). The ravioli were stuffed with goat in a really tasty, well-balanced black truffle and tomato-based sauce topped with red cabbage . Every bite was delectable and the portion sizes were perfect. For dessert we shared a tasty flourless chocolate cake with a glass of the recommended Port on the side. And the best part of it all - the price! For the two of us on this very fancy-feeling date night we spent about $100. Very fair and well-worth it for the quality, flavors, and experience. Will definitely be back to try more of the menu!
Warm, comfortable interior and very sweet staff. Pretty busy for a Monday evening and the servers were a bit overwhelmed. Even so, I enjoyed my meal here! Nice miso soup, tasty CA roll and Alaska roll, and all for a fair price!
Long line so we hoped it would be worth it (especially on a crowded 4th of July!) We were immediately drawn to the merch inside - hip vibe with a local emphasis. The worker dude was incredibly nice and accommodating despite the insane rush and holiday. Major props to him. The ice cream flavors all sound delicious: pistachio with cherry, Thai iced tea, black sesame to name a few that caught my eye. I opted for a salted caramel scoop in an affogato and I was blown away from the first taste (and had to share it with everyone else). Truly god's combo. Excellent quality ingredients, on the pricier end but NY has ruined my scale for these things.
We further enjoyed the Meyer lemon pie, great crust well-balanced sour and sweetness. The giant Oreo cookie was very tasty, not as intensely sweet as expected! Great experience and will definitely be back to try more!
So glad to have found Khoom Lanna! Delicious Thai food with great customer service!
Entering, we were immediately greeted by a very pleasant and warm interior. Their card reader was unfortunately down (temporarily) and we had no cash but they were flexible enough to let us order our food through an online ordering service and sit at a nice corner table.
We ordered summer rolls, mango salad (mild), and Drunken noodles along with a Thai iced tea. The summer rolls were fresh and crispy with a nicely balanced peanut dressing. The mango salad was tangy, slightly sweet and spicy - delicious (and nostalgic for B). Pad see ew was exactly what I wanted! The staff were all super friendly and we will definitely be coming back.
