• Friendly staff, chicken salad tasted good.
• Very slow service, overpriced food.

“This restaurant is now called "The Jem". I am a very patient person, but it took them literally thirty minutes just to make my half sandwich of chicken salad. The food is also pricey - I paid almost seven dollars just for my half sandwich. I said not for family-friendly because while the staff was accommodating to babies (they do have high-chairs), I felt awkward there with a child because all the sounds echo off the walls and floors (no sound buffers), and the customers were primarily older, very sophisticated adults (some in meetings). It just didn't seem like a place you'd want to take children very often.”

• The place is unpretentious but charming.
• Cannot think of a thing.

“The Blue Parrot is a great place to gather with friends for lunch (or breakfast). The sandwiches are wonderful; an imaginative menu, and the prices are reasonable. The place has an old coffee house feel, a little run down but comfortable and a bit eclectic with funky pictures on the walls, old books to pick up and read and some outsider art placed around the room. The owner, Joyce Montello, is friendly and concerned about her customers. She also does a wonderful job of catering, designing menus of all sorts, including her wonderful sandwiches.”
