Everything was excellent: servers, food, ambience and the regular pouring of bottomless mimosas.

Waited about almost 45 for the food to come out. Food was OK. Atmosphere was great. The bottomless mimosa was good. The person service the mimosa was fairly nice and would refill our cups as soon as it's empty. However, she mentioned to our table that if she sees us slamming down our mimosas she would not come to get refilled.

Great drinks and excellent service. Their gimlets are ~fabulous~. Went to brunch most recently, and the freeflow mimosas came fast and frequently. Decent quality, especially for $10. Food was distinctly mediocre - all 3 of us thought our meals were a bit on the small side, did some unnecessary reinterpretation of brunch foods and I had to send my meal back (terrible pork belly). BUT, the service throughout was top notch and my replacement meal came quickly and with some wonderfully seasoned bacon. Maybe they have specialties we didn't know about. Bottom line: if you brunch here when you're thirsty and don't need a big meal, you'll be pleased
