"Don't miss out on Arugula!!! We went for Social Hour and didn't want to leave!! Let's start with the team at Arugula. Every single team member was friendly and very accommodating from the Chef/Owner to the Kitchen staff, the waitstaff, hostess and their legendary bartender. The food It was ALL fantastic. We started with a few items from the social hour menu....don't sleep on the Cauliflower and Bao Buns! We then tried one of the August specials the Summer Lobster Toast. Tons of lobster, brown butter, corn, cilantro cream all served over this delicious corn cake. The flavor, texture and execution on this special was on point. The cocktails balanced and thoughtful. They also have a great sele...

Arugula was one of those places I always passed by and was curious to try, so when my friend asked me to go there with her I was so excited! I knew that they had a lot of Mediterranean influence on the menu but wasn't expecting the flatbread section of the menu we ordered two and they were delicious! It was a fine dining vibe with really professional and attentive staff.

What a find. If you haven't been to this Blue Back Square staple add it to your list immediately. I'm not sure what is the best part-the food, the staff/owner, of the decor. A beautiful version of a war torn France cafe just adds to the polish yet rustic feel. The large bar is definitely a prime spot for a happy hour. The food is a blend of Egyptian and Indian/Asian. There is not a bad bite to be had. Be open. There are so many new flavor combinations that you're going to love if you just take a bite! From apps to desserts this is one of our favorite spots.

What isn't there to love abut this place ? Went the other night for dinner and most things were very successful ! My favorite thing was the nachos from the happy hour menu wish they were on the permanent menu. We then shared the Koran ribs, a salad and the Brussels sprouts. Things in order of my favorite were nachos, salad, ribs, then Brussels. Probably wouldn't Orr the Brussels again but there are so many other things to try next time. Love the decor and the seating is comfortable and the groups aren't seated too closely some windows seats are great for people watching

"I’m not typically one to write reviews but I had to share my honest experience which was . I was seated perfectly fine and so far service was nice until I started receiving our orders. The soup was lukewarm-cold and just looked like old broth and tasteless when we received it. The Sake was lukewarm-cold as well and when we sent it back for another one, we got the same one but it was microwaved instead which completely altered and ruined the taste. We ordered sushi which was strangely chewy and tasted inedible. Next we received our hibachi meal, it had somewhat good portions, maybe couldve been less but it was okay. On the other hand the meal was drenched in sauce or oil or whatever it was and it completely threw me off and I immediately knew my stomach would be ruined. Not only that but our meat was raw!!!!!! We did ask for medium rare but it shouldn’t be that hard to cook it that way with no red. Not only that but when we sent out food back, with no intention to eat anything else, we got our food back but without the meat which is considered cross contamination. The customer service was awful as well. We tried to be nice when confronting them about it but the manager made it hard. We asked to pay for 2 items only yet instead were insisted on given a discount which is unfair to pay for inedible food. I ended up paying around 40-50$ just for sushi, a drink, and sake that wasnt even good. The manager/owner was kind of stingy and stubborn as well with his response to other reviews!! Honestly I dont know how this restaurant isn’t shut down yet, it’s completely disturbing. On the bright there was one understanding worker other than that I wouldn’t recommend this place if my life depended on it. ???"
