Only a 6 minute walk from the new Covenant Stadium. Outdoor seating available. Our server Peyton was extremely personable and efficient. Miranda, the general manager of the restaurant also came by our table to ensure all was okay. We had a Sunday brunch and it was very good. Very easy to make reservations using Open Table.

Beautiful property with outdoor seating & music. The major drawback was the resort fee that was added to our check. We were not made aware of the fee ahead of time. $55.00 for a party of 4. They are trying to attract locals to the venue and have recently opened up the lunch & brunch to locals. They should consider removing the fee. My husbands dinner came some time after the 1st 3 meals. I had to go inside to find out where it was. Otherwise it was a beautiful evening
