Wonderful opportunity to experience foo-foo gourmet food without the foo-foo gourmet price while helping those less fortunate to re-establish themselves. An all-around wonderful cause and experience!

My guest was very impressed with the mission, the menu and the sophisticated operation of FareStart. It was, as usual for me, a great lunch experience. The only issue was somewhat pushy waitstaff, making it feel like she wanted us to eat fast and turn the table over.

I really enjoy supporting the mission behind FareStart and invited a friend to meet there for lunch. While most of the lunch was good. The caprese salad was very salty. Otherwise, it was a pleasant experience.

The cause of FARESTART restaurant chef's dinners is extremely worth and to be commented. The service is outstanding and charming by local volunteers. The food is enjoyable. Unfortunately, the acoustic, especially upstairs is bad for people with hearing aids and even for those without impaired hearing.
