The Courtyard Kitchen

We went here on Valentine’s night. The server was very kind and even replaced our pizza when the first one came out cold, which we appreciated. Unfortunately the pizza itself was disappointing. The crust was very flat and dense both times, almost no rise, and it didn’t taste fresh. The replacement was warmer but had the exact same texture. The salad dressing was very basic and nothing memorable. Also the pizza came out extremely fast — good for timing, but it honestly felt like it might have been pre-prepared (not certain, just the impression). What really didn’t make sense was the price vs quality. We paid $173 for two pizzas, a bottle of wine, one salad and three small appetizers, which felt quite high considering the food quality.

Really nice and cozy place, great service. Unfortunately when we arrived, only pizza and drinks were available. The pizza was delicious and the cocktails were too. I would like to return here and try different dishes.

The restaurant mood and service were great. The quality of food was good, but not excellent. Unfortunately, one of the poached eggs was close to hard boiled egg, and size of burrito felt little small for the price.

Hmmm, unfortunately, while the staff is friendly and the ambiance is nice, the food we received during brunch fell short. We ordered 3 items: - Truffle fries: Pretty good as expected but nothing to write a lot on, as this is a relatively simple and straightforward appetizer. Not bad, but not memorable, either. - Spanish chorizo hash: the best of the 3 with a good variety of components that work together. The Spanish Pork Chorizo was rightfully front and center and paired well with the herb potatoes. - Panuozzo: the most underwhelming dish that we ate. On paper it looked enticing, as this "Pizza Sandwich" had prosciutto, parmesan, tomato confit, aragula, and pesto sauce. Unfortunately the pesto sauce overwhelmed everything, and nothing else stood out. So rather than a symphony of taste,

I visited this restaurant in the morning when there were many empty tables and only a handful of customers. Despite this, the hostess approached me and claimed a table was “reserved” (with no sign indicating this) and asked whether I was going to be quick. She was extremely unprofessional given how empty the restaurant was. I’ve been here before and returned mainly for convenience, but honestly, the food is mediocre and overpriced. The kitchen is not exceptional enough to justify the prices, and when you add poor service on top of that, the experience is disappointing. Staff training clearly needs improvement. Between the average food and the dismissive treatment, I do not recommend dining here.
