I've been to Superba Food + Bread 3 times since it opened.

My first visit was in 2014 not long after they opened and service was very disorganized back then worthy of 2 stars. My most recent visit I'd say was 4 stars -- hostess for dinner was alert and sat me quickly although I had no reservation; server was attentive and knowledgeable; water glasses filled by bussers on request.

The bakery offerings have changed considerably since the opening a few years ago. Famed pastry chef, Lincoln Carson was the founding pastry chef back then and since his departure, the selection of dessert pastries from the refrigerated case have been scaled back.

Nevertheless, my recent visit at the end of May after 2 years was quite positive-- I really enjoyed the rotisserie chicken with green goddess dressing salad for dinner and the special seasonal dessert of strawberry shortcake consisting of a lavender scone and whipped chantilly vanilla cream -- delicious!

Note: I sat in the patio and it gets rather chilly in the evening. FYI: They offer complimentary blankets. They have patio heaters, but they would not turn them on because my dinner was before 8:30p.

They allow dogs on the patio and unfortunately for me, there was a small group 2 tables over that allowed their unbathed (smelly) dog to roam around my table and others while on a very long leash. This isn't reflected in my rating of the place, but were I to go back for a meal, I would request a seat away from dogs on the patio. (I like dogs, but I don't want to be near a stinky one during a meal).
