Dining With Us
At Good To Eat, we have a hybrid model that combines table service with counter order. This enables us to put a domain expert at each phase of your dining experience, while reducing delays in traditional models like getting the check.
When you arrive at the counter, we love to walk you through the menu of the day and help you put your order together. You can then choose your seats, whether it's in the indoor dining space, our garden patio, or at the bar to get a clear view into the open kitchen.
Your thoughtfully and consistently prepared dishes will be presented to you by our knowledgeable staff. We invite you to chat with us on anything ranging from the ingredients to the dishes' social or personal history.
Kitchen opens from 5 pm to 9:30 pm. Large party reservations of 8 guests and more may be accommodated if capacity permits.
