   Their Sunday brunch starts at 11am, our reservations were at 1230. They ran out of cinnamon rolls , no French toast, chefs didn’t even make the cheese boards. HUGE disappointment on the menu. But the car tour was neat!

   The staff expect the chef was very nice, the menu online needs to be updated since your menu changes regularly . Extra staff should be on hand for car tours , 2 absent employees shouldn’t have stopped the tour of cars . I drove basically two hours for nothing to be honest. It should be open seating for everyone especially if the car tours are cancelled that should’ve been a comp but it wasn’t.The atmosphere was nice and all the staff members were great except Charles the chef. The food could definitely use a revamp because it’s wasn’t good at all . If you’re not a club member you can’t sit upstairs over the cars.

   Great place to hang and eat but we didn’t see our server much, we had other people refill our drinks and check on us because I think they noticed we were forgotten. The food was good, I little too heavy handed on the salt…but over all it was ok/ good.

   First off I was disappointed to find out you can only view the cars on a Saturday for a $15 fee, not on the weekdays unless your a member. Had we known this from the start we wouldn’t have gone or waited until the weekend. We tried to make a reservation on a Thursday for a party over the phone, e-mail, and dm on Instagram but no one ever answered in a span of 3 days so we had to just book multiple reservations of 4 people and just show up and hope for the best. When we arrived hostess was amazing and sweet, but the manager or I’m not sure what he was but he wasn’t in uniform was very rude. Our reservation was at 6:15 and we arrived and 6:10. He started telling us in an annoyed manner “they normally charge a fee for cancellation but since we we’re already there” which I had no idea what he meant by this since we never canceled or arrived late. The whole time he was putting the tables together for us he was a bit rude. I then asked if he could put the cake in the back and he said that they charge $5 per person if he does that which means it would be $75 to put a $40 cake in the back, so we just kept it at the table. Our server overall was really nice and good! They even ended up taking the cake in the back for us and saying they don’t know why he said that about the $5 fee. But at the end of my dad’s birthday dinner the server told my dad that he could go upstairs to view the cars. When he went upstairs a young lady also out of uniform went behind him and told him to come down because it’s for members only. Mind you it was the end of the night and we were the last people to leave. My dad let her know that he got permission from the server and when she asks the server he backs out and says he never said that which made it look like my dad was lying. All in all the servers were nice and helpful and food was a 6/10 but management or whatever they were, were very UPTIGHT! I work in the service industry and the way they acted was not it.

   Really enjoyed the venue, car tour was so fun! Food portions are large and well worth it. My only negative would be the steak was charbroiled well done and would have preferred being able to pick the temperature it was cooked too but everything else was amazing.

   The atmosphere here is fun seeing all of the cars, but the food was mediocre. They weren’t that busy but our food still arrived warm/cold, like it had been sitting for a while. I had asked our server about the meal I was ordering (breakfast hash) and I realized after I received it she did I not know what was being served for that item. It was not what I would consider a hash.
