I came for a brunch. I was going to order crab cakes Benedict. I asked about the crab cakes and whether they are pure crab. The response was that they were almost half bread. I ordered the short ribbon hash and vegetables. The hash had very little short ribs, and other than potatoes, I saw almost no vegetables. I was very disappointed.
