    Lovely brunch on the waterfront in a pleasant setting. The wait staff was great to handle our group efficiently so that we could make the matinee at Arena Stage.

    The food was good, but service and overall staff energy was lacking. Brought my husband here for his first Father’s Day and thought people would be more personable. Had to ask for water. Ordered appetizers and mains and everything came out pretty close to each other so felt rushed to eat our appetizers so that our mains wouldn’t go cold. No one said goodbye or thank you while leaving passing the host stand. Just felt like a burden that we were there giving business. Oh, and they have a little disclaimer on their menu that says something along the lines of leaving a 20% tip is expected…

    Fantastic meal! We sat outside and had a great experience. They also were cautious with a gluten allergy in our reservation. Highly recommend!

    The food was excellent. We sat outside to enjoy the fresh air. The wharf is a little loud but we didn’t mind it.

    My second time here and have found the food, service, and atmosphere to be excellent on both visits. The covered outdoor space is very pleasant and feels a bit calmer than some of the surrounding spots. Traditional bistro fare is tasty. Tuna tartare, salad nicoise, salmon, and fries all recommended. Service is friendly and attentive without being overbearing. Shoutout to Luke for his excellent service and warm welcome.
