The Calabrian Cima di Rapa was abysmally bad. Blandest dish ever. Zero flavor and they did not include the pecorino romano cheese. The portion size was also ridiculously small, barely filled the bottom of the container. Absolutely insane they have the gall to charge $34 for this, owners should be ashamed of themselves. 0/10 would not recommend. Will not be ordering from here again.

Mac + Cheese is a regular order for me; tonights was not good, especially because I ordered it without certain items and it came with them anyways. There was also way too much breading, which didn't soften because the mac&cheese was cold. The Tempura Battered Chicken Tenders were very lackluster and the batter was undercooked. Minimal amount of chicken in the tenders; very disappointing. Small Public Salad is always delicious as are the House Fries and House Meatballs.

the cheese in the mac n cheese seems pre-made I'd imagine at over 20 dollars for a plate it would be home made , other than that it was okay , barely warm when it got here but we ate it , my so said the lava cake his only complaint was that it was kinda dry , sorbet was fantastic though

The falafel was mushy and had minimal veggies. The burgers all came underdone with soggy buns and bacon. The chicken tenders were super greasy, not tempura fried so much as regular batter fried. Our hosts suggested this was their favorite spot in town but we had a very different experience. $125 for five people and everyone was disappointed. For us this was a waste of money and we would not try this again or recommend it to others.
