    Went here for brunch with some girlfriends! Not only was the service great, the food was good and the vibes were 10 out of 10. The manager even stopped by to make sure we had everything we needed. Definitely an underrated spot for brunch.

    Charges a 3% fee to pay by credit card. Claims that’s the same they pay - but surely they don’t pay the same for Visa, Mastercard, and Amex. Automatically includes a 20% gratuity regardless of party size - and you know what that does to service.

    While our service was excellent, we ordered a bottle of wine that wasn’t available and was replaced with something else. Additionally, I ordered steak and eggs with cold and undercooked eggs. The replacement egg was even worse. Again, the service was great, but for the price, the food was definitely subpar.
