The food was good but it took over an hour just for the apps to come out and they forgot one of the meals so it took another 30 minutes to get that after the other meals arrived. We were all done eating before the final meal arrived. Nice spot though

Nice brunch cafe, but when making the reservation "ocean view" is deceptive. You get to face the ocean, but not view the ocean. The food was good and the chef was kind enough to make me a fruit plate even though it was after breakfast, thanks to the waitress putting in the request. Unfortunately, service could use improvement. We wouldn't see our waitress 20 mins at a time leading to no ketchup until the fries were cold and almost missing another reservation because the check took long to come leading to another waitress getting flagged down. Our waitress was very nice, but perhaps too many tables or had a demanding table, this happens. We would still go back.

Went for birthday brunch. Let me start by saying that it was not busy. The service was not what you would expect. The food presentation did not resemble the pictures they have online. Asked for eggs Benedict and was told it was not on the menu. We got our food and we were very disappointed. 15 min later the table next to us was served eggs Benedict.
