    Chicken was dry, the salad soaked in vinegar. Very disappointing.

    This place used to be much better.. food is unremarkable and a bit pricey for the quality. Ambiance is lovely though.

    The service was great and the decor was beautiful. Prices were a little steep which was expected. The menu was primarily seafood based. I just wish there were more pasta, chicken or meat options.

    From the minute, we got up to the host stand the service was incredible! We arrived 25 minutes early and they had us at the bar while our table was ready and the drinks were absolutely amazing! Once we were finally sat, the service was incredible with our waiter. Everything was nicely timed but not rushed so I said give us time to eat our appetizers and have a nice conversation without having the next course brought immediately. The food was delicious and we couldn’t have been happier with our choices, overall an amazing experience!

    The location is its biggest pro! Aside from that, this location does far short on its brunch menu due to it being so small and restricted. We weren’t satisfied fully with what we got to eat considering it was pricey and very basic. Menu lacked being specific about your entree sides and it was lacking flavor. Our server and staff in general were very pretentious and tense towards us during our meal which didn’t help the experience either. This is a good place for that Instagram picture aesthetic and maybe a drink or two but would avoid the food altogether.

    We loved our brunch at Arden, especially our friendly server! But despite the reservation, we were seated on the patio right next to the cafe in a high traffic area that was never fully shaded (the umbrella couldn’t cover all 4 seats from the mid-day sun). The food is great, so next I go back I’ll be sure to request a better table.
