A: I've shared lunch with colleagues here and I have to say... not really impressed. The space is wonderful. Light, clean lines, uncramped, good flow - but I don't repeat visit a place that "looks" good. I simply don't have the time when there are so many places that bring me the whole package. I don't know if there dinner menu is different, but there are a fair amount of selections without being overwhelming. There are only two meatless options, which I expect more of, especially in a Chinese restaurant. I've eaten ginger soy noodles and they are just bleh... if not a little greasy. Two of my friends seemed to enjoy their dishes and the fourth commented on hers being REALLY salty. All of that could be forgiven if the flavor profile was strong enough to overcome the lack of creativity. But it just isn't. For those of you looking for the "all inclusive" lunch special, keep driving. Here you will just get your entree item or app and a portion of white rice. They will bring you brown rice if you request and then remind them. As it is a relatively small space, I would expect service to be attentive. And perhaps they have a different crew of people that work dinner, but we all sat with empty glasses grabbing employees as they walk by at arms length that seems oblivious to the fact that four people holding empty glasses is a sign that you might want to stop at the table. Lastly, I sort of feel like GCB has a little bit of an identity crisis happening. It seems to want to the trendy go-to spot that pushes the tried and true Asian flavors to a new and updated level. Instead what it delivers is conventional, rather unremarkable food in really nice bowls. Maybe we were just there on bad days. I get that. We all have them. But when you have other choices, I want some substance and wow.

A: This is your warning...DO NOT GO OR SPEND ANY $$$! Awful experience. The girl that was working there had no idea what the machine was or what it did. Yes, it was her first day but you would think you need some type of experience. The male was creepy and tried to stay in the room while I got undressed. The sales push was outrageous. This business will go under soon- do not waste your money!!!!

Lola, what a gem! My boyfriend and I walked over here, feeling enticed by an evening coffee and rumors of an outside patio. We decided to bring the dog with us so he could experience Lola too. :) We sat outside and apprehensively parked the dog outside, making sure to clear it with the staff that it was okay to have him outside. The petite brunette barista (wish I had gotten her name!) was so incredibly sweet and gracious. She took the time to come outside and greet our dog, even bringing him a "puppyccino," just water in a bowl but a very sweet gesture nonetheless. The inside is clean and modern looking, but not so modern that all the furniture is uncomfortable. I could certainly see myself passing away lazy weekend days here, happily caffeinated and making good use of the wi-fi. I really wish I had come here sooner, I feel they certainly deserve the business with their tasty and reasonably priced coffee, great staff and low-key ambiance.
