   Beautiful inside. Tables are not crowded together. Menu is great. Service is excellent. Prices are very good for this area. Food was hit and miss. Avocado eggs Benedict on bread was very good. Eggs cooked perfectly. Toast not toasted enough. Needed a bit more Hollandaise. Fruit cup was okay, but had 1/2 watermelon which is just filler. French toast with strawberry compote and whipped cream was undercooked, and mushy in the middle where the strawberry compote was. Mimosa flight was meh. Peruvian coffee was amazing. They validate your parking. Will return.

   The Lamb burger and Lobster were delicious. But it was rather difficult to select the menu. The waitress was helpful. The dessert was very delicious.

   Girlfriend and I had brunch. We had a table in the patio which was perfect. Ella was a great server who checked on us regularly. We had bottomless mimosas and food was delicious. Will definitely be back.

   Service and ambiance are great! Surprisingly the food is Meh. We had the steak salad and the French dip and both were very average. For a place with such good ambiance and service they need better food.

   We have been several times now and never have been disappointed. It was a great lunch with our friends, attention to detail was a pleasant surprise as this was a birthday lunch and the staff made sure to make it a nice and enjoyable moment. The food was delicious: calamari, mussels, sea bass, halibut and the deserts left us more than satisfied. Can only say .. keep up the excellent cuisine and service and we’ll be coming back.
