    Their ice cream sandwich is perfection. Sandwiched in between their to-die-for cookies was mint chocolate ice cream drizzled with caramel served with a mini-milkshake shooter. Read more

    Cozy ambiance. The shrimp and risotto is always delicious. I found the sea bass with poblano risotto to be a bit bland. The fall salad was lovely, and you can never go wrong with their cheese board.

    The honey chicken egg and biscuit is eggcellent (seewhatididthere). Note the chicken packs some heat (spice). Be warned.

    Smaller and with a more homey feel than its big brother on W. Alabama. Service is friendly and attentive, and the food is great. Try the West U Club, the turkey burger, and all their fresh juices!

    The bikes stationed in the parking lot are for customers to ride home, if they so desire. Or West U residents can call the restaurant and be picked up and taken home by an eco shuttle.

    Small menu but everything on it I've had so far is very good. Good place to come for a nice quiet breakfast. Migas are terrific!

    A great place to get a latte. They serve Greenway coffee and much better than Starbucks

    Migas are great. Cookies are good. It's pricey for the portion size.
