Our waitress, Angel, was amazing, attentive and welcoming. Everything we ordered was delicious. I ordered the yogurt parfait and the French toast since I'm not a red meat eater. My husband had the house salad and steak frites. The bottomless mimosas and screwdrivers were generous. We'll definitely go back.

We had an hour and a half wait to be seated after making a reservation. It took four hours for the entire brunch and we had a previous commitment later in the day so we felt very rushed. This was very upsetting to many members of my party. I know that there was a long lineup of tables but it was upsetting to wait so long. Food was only ok.1

The only better than the food was the warm, attentive service. We thought the manager was the owner she was so good! The pre-fixe menu was perfect. From the bread to the salad to the dessert, everything was delicious!

We went for brunch on New Year’s Day. My husband enjoyed the French toast, I thought my steak & frites entree was delicious and our girls both had the awesome breakfast sandwich. Our waitress, Angel, was attentive. We all enjoyed our experience and plan on going back.
