Dan Roberts: For lunch, sandwiches are pretty greasy but delicious. For dinner, the braised lamb with olives and chickpeas is actually amazing.
Dave Theran: Go to Marky Mark and the Funky Brunch to grab the chicken and biscuits!
Jennifer Evans: Try the burrata, mac n cheese, mushroom flatbread or the grilled avocados. Delish! Don't forget to pop inside the store and get something to take home too!
