Frequently criticized
- Avocado Cravingtoday's experience with the Avocado Craving sandwich was disappointing
- avocadoHowever, today's experience with the Avocado Craving sandwich was disappointing. It had less than a quarter of an avocado, and for $11, I expected more than just bread with beets and iceberg lettuce. When I brought this to the server's attention, I was met with total attitude.

Amazing Cheeseburger in a Tough Area
I was downtown, exploring areas that have seen better days and are now unfortunately frequented by individuals struggling with addiction. Amidst this, I discovered the Little Griddle @ Dough Restaurant! It struck me that if they can persevere through such challenging surroundings, they must be doing something right. Intrigued, I went in. I ordered a cheeseburger on toasted sourdough, and it was truly one of the best I've ever had! 5 ☆☆☆☆☆

Disappointing Coffee and Overpriced Meal
My experience at this restaurant was quite disappointing. The coffee was just 'mid', and the ham egg and cheese on brioche was okay, but the ratio of ingredients was off, with an excessive amount of bread. It lacked sauce, making the entire sandwich feel a bit dry. Adding to the inconvenience, there were no outlets and no WiFi, making it unsuitable for working. Overall, the experience felt pricier than it was worth.

Good food, sweet service, quiet atmosphere
My experience at this restaurant was positive, particularly with the food. I enjoyed the burger and fries, and found them to be very good. The service was also a highlight; the lady at the till was described as very sweet and kind. However, the atmosphere was notably quiet during my lunch visit, which might be a consideration for some diners.
