    Love the location as it is in an old bank built in the 20's so the architecture is beautiful. This is going to be our new spot for bottomless weekend brunch as it was $22 for the mimosas and an entree. I had the pulled pork hash and hubby had the breakfast burrito with carnitas. Both were delish and we could have shared due to the size. Even though I read of horrible service our server was great, just can't remember her name. Like I said, we'll be back :)

    Beautiful building ... cavernous space making it very noisy My salad was terrible and our Clients special of the night was left uneaten. Embarrassing to us to say the least. Won’t be back.

    Had brunch and we both went with the classic breakfast. The cook seems to struggle with making over easy eggs but the bacon is quite delicious and cooked perfectly. Harder to get bacon cooked right than eggs but oh well.

    Service was VERY slow on a not too busy Sunday. At least half an hour waiting for the waitress at various points of the meal.
