My server was especially kind as she could see I was struggling to decide what to order. It wasn't that I was overwhelmed, it was that I was underwhelmed as someone who lives plant based, vegan cuisine, everything just seemed lacklaster. I order the matcha horchata which was a nice take on a match latte with cinnamon added as a grounding spice. I ate the chopped salad and by its description, I prepared for something great yet when it arrived I knew I'd only be satiated. Re-reading the description now, I don't think my salad contained any marcona almonds, only farro grains.
Lastly, the restaurant has an open kitchen. As I ate, kitchen staff was facing me EATING AND DRINKING as they prepared customer's food. If that's not a prime opportunity for saliva transfer I don't know what is. But to be very fair, I've seen this unsanitary practice many places in Florida. This practice is likely encouraged by De Santis who continues to promote the "ridiculousness" of wearing masks as an ounce of prevention.
