I wish I could give a better rating, but I was disappointed with both the quality of food and service received today. My boyfriend and I arrived at 2PM for lunch and were asked if we would like to dine in or take out. We decided to sit outside thinking there was still an hour before close. By 2:30PM we were being rushed to leave with our waitress coming by every few minutes to pick up items - before we were finished eating. The food itself was average - we both ordered grilled cheeses with soups. The carrot-ginger soup had chunks of ginger in it (not blended), and I didn't get a chance to finish the food before it was taken away. Then, when our food was taken away and I was still finishing my coffee, we were asked to come inside and pay immediately - and also if I could finish my drink (I gulped it down in front of our waitress). At 2:45PM, a man came out and said "that's it, you need to go now". Absolutely astounded and confused, we got up promptly and asked when the close time was. He stumbled on explanation saying "2:30PM", but when I noted that the close time online is 3PM, he said "yes, we do close at 3 but today is slow so we are closing at 2:30PM". I don't recall that a store owner will ask you to dine-in if they anticipate shooing you out 30min later. We did not arrive 10 or even 30min before close, we arrived an *hour* before close. If you plan to close early, then please let your customer know that only take-out options are available. Incredibly rude service and I unfortunately do not plan to come back. Please communicate with your customers in a more polite and honest manner.
