Brought the family on a Saturday and we all walked out happy. Kids loved their food, my partner ordered the Chicken Shawarma and finished every bite. Prices feel fair for the portions. The dining room was a little loud but that's expected on weekends.
Came here on a whim during my lunch break and I'm hooked. The Greek Salad was easily the best version I've had this year. Friendly staff, fast service, and they actually got my order right the first time. Will be back next week.
I work nearby and stop in at least twice a week. The Spanakopita hits every time. Service is quick, the space is clean, and they take dietary requests seriously which I appreciate. Easy five stars from me.
Great mediterranean option for the area. The Hummus Plate was the highlight, big portion and well-priced. Seating is limited so if you come at peak hours plan on takeout. I'll be back.
Honestly impressed. We tried three different items between the table and the Hummus Plate stole the show. The staff genuinely seemed to enjoy being there which makes a difference. Cannot recommend enough.
Ridge Public House has become my regular weekday lunch. Consistent quality, generous portions, and the staff has started to recognize me. I usually grab the Hummus Plate but I've worked through most of the menu and haven't had a miss yet.
