    I arranged a business lunch for Aug 20, 2024 through OpenTable. Received all reservation info including reminders the day of. Arrived at restaurant to find they were closed for lunch and this had been ongoing, not just a surprise on my reservation day. Hard to believe there was no notification or anything. Classless and unprofessional. I will never try to come to this establishment again

    Not exactly fine dining. Our server was friendly but she kept forgetting to bring our setups on time; no side plates to share our appetizers, no steak knives to cut our entree. When food was brought to our table, it was an auction on whose food it was. We ordered our steaks medium rare and it came out well done so we had to send it back. They were nice enough to remove it from our bill. Overall, a cute place but just not what we had expected.

    We were there for luch and they only offered a rather limited brunch menu. I had the Burger with a green salad. It was very tasty.

    Unfortunately we sat and waited 25 minutes and didn’t even get a glass of water. I wish I could say that it’s because it was very busy but it wasn’t. It’s too bad because we really enjoyed previous visits.

    The food, drink, and service were just ok. Nothing really notable to write about. It was also very loud and busy for a Tuesday evening.

    Reserved for mother's day brunch. Told when we arrived they don't serve brunch. Waitress disappeared for 20 minutes after taking drink orders. We walked out. What a terrible experience.

    We made a reservation for lunch on a mother’s day. We were served food after an hour and a half because they only have 1 chef. Some of the food items that we ordered were either not available or will take a long time to prepare so we ended up cancelling some or our orders and left the restaurant not satisfied.

    Brunch menu was not available. The avocado toast was ok but the pudding french toast was not good at all. Servers are friendly but we had to wait for 30 min to get our order.
