Yes, it has taken my this long to go to yum! in Woodbury. No, I’m not proud of it. Yes, it was really good.

Food:

Reuben: corned beef, swiss cheese, sauerkraut & red pepper aioli on caraway rye

We went on a Sunday for lunch so husband was debating between the breakfast sandwich and the rueben, but his old man tendencies came out and he went with the corned beef. He really enjoyed it and said he would definitely eat it again.

Turkey Focaccia: house roasted turkey breast w/ red pepper aioli, shredded lettuce, tomato & shaved red onion

I had the turkey focaccia and I enjoyed every bite. The chips were also fried perfectly, too. Husband said it best, “I was annoyed it was chips instead of fries, but these are actually really good.” We did debate also getting the french fries appetizer that comes with three sauces, but neither of us felt like we were hungry enough so we passed. I’ll definitely get it at one point, though – red pepper aioli, cajun mayo & ketchup – yum (see what I did there?).

My one gripe is that the pickles are not pickled enough. They taste like cucumbers that were maybe dunked in the vinegar for all of 10 minutes.

Drinks:

We both ordered soft drinks, but they have a coffee bar with specialty coffees (they had a pumpkin spice one going with real pumpkin) and they do also have some beer, wine and wine cocktails like a spritz and french 75 available.

(Sorry for the bad picture quality – I zoomed in on one of my pictures since there isn’t a drink menu on their website!)

Atmosphere/Service:

It was a beautiful October day so we sat outside on the patio, which was nice since there was a middle school soccer team and their parents inside making it a little noisy. The space itself is decorated very industrial and I loved it.

This is a fast/casual restaurant meaning you order then sit so I’m not sure that it would be our first choice for a dinner out, but for a lunch it was perfect.
