    What I can say? Everything was amazing but the service? I can’t even describe how excellent the service it is. The host, the server, the food runner, they definitely make us want to come back and not only that, suggest this place to all our friends for brunch. And also the food is amazing, seriously best brunch in NYC

    I had an 11:00am reservation for brunch on Sunday. We were the only 2 people in the entire restaurant for the first at least hour that we were there and the service couldn’t be slower. The wait staff would look at us clearly unattended to and carry on with what they were doing. The food was fine, nothing special, we had the avocado toast and the egg in the hole. The slow service truly was the worst part of the experience.

    This is a bar that has some food, versus a restaurant. The food was average however the location and service was quite nice. I would def come back for drinks but not for food.

    Seated immediately in a great setting . Service was poor, no coffee for a breakfast/brunch meal is wrong. It took 20 minutes to have my order taken for food only after I asked. Food was not that well presented and was mediocre. Perhaps it was a bad day but not worth the time I spent.
