Fodor's Review:

Tucked between the cafés and raucous bars of East Carson Street is a secret garden where some of the city's best food is served. A narrow courtyard in the back of this café is a pleasant place to enjoy a Mediterranean-inspired menu that includes pork loin with thyme goat cheese timbale (a kind of custard or flan), roasted eggplant rolled with fresh mozzarella and sun-dried tomatoes, and tilapia with calamata olive tapenade. Exotic herbs like pineapple sage, lemon thyme, and chocolate mint grow in the courtyard next to a small, murmuring pond. Bring your own wine or beer.
