Server didn’t seem to know the food preparation. Crispy chicken was breaded and deep fried(which I know I should have figured that out without asking) but t when I asked, he said it was pan seared. Luckily, my lunch companion swapped with me. Not very attentive service, and while both of us tried to get anyone’s attention, it actually took my companion getting up and walking over to one of the waitstaff.

We happened upon this great restaurant while searching for a family friendly place to dine. The food was delicious and well portioned. The menu was interesting and varied. Best of all they had a great kids menu including grilled cheese and chicken tenders. We will absolutely come here again.

Too many different people serving our table - and still the service was slow. Front desk was not great. Liked the restaurant though.

Fun, friendly, yummy place for brunch. Will likely return, and perhaps sit at the bar. A lively place, and perfect for a meal pre-Carnegie Hall.
