    Great oldies music and people watching. The Calamari, Bulgogi and Mushroom soup were delicious. Our server was attentive and friendly contrary to other posts on here. We recommend it!

    If you're looking for tulsi, maca, fancy salts and coconut oil, you're barking up the wrong tree. Lokal has a delightful juice bar menu with combinations that predate the juicing-as-a-trend era.

    The Huevos Rancheros are no joke. Lots of outdoor seating in the warmer months. Smoothies are a great start to brunch!

    Great place, everyone is very friendly and the food is great. Nice outdoor tables. Try the apple risotto or the avocado sandwich

    Great if you enjoy dirty hipsters glaring at you for bringing a child. They have hi chairs tho so there's that.

    Bloody Mary's are great! I see a lot of tips regarding the wait for food, but I've never had a problem.

    In my experiences here, the food has been kind of bland, but the atmosphere is great for a nice day: open doors and outside seating.

    Have a glass of port with your chocolate souffle and you will be very happy

    Free "check-in" beer is from a SELECTED list. I ordered a Chimay (at the direction of our ill-informed server) and ended up having to pay for it. Otherwise, a chill place for brunch.

    Steak sandwich was yummy, and it was an awesome bonus that we got a free drink with our check-in!

    If you think it's a good idea to skip the wait at Five Leaves and come to Lokal, stop. It's not worth it. Turn around back across the street.

    There must be a new person in the kitchen and I'm going to assume he loves salt. It's a shame lokal was a fave

    If you like service from people that seem baked out of their mind, this is the place. Food is good.

    Nice atmosphere ... The food isn't that great and we were waiting more than an hour on Sunday for the food to be served. Worth to try :)

    Not the best service. Not the best food. Small portions and smaller wine glasses. Want good food? Keep walking.
