    The kitchen unfortunately messed up our skillet order two times and the French toast was really overdone and difficult to cut and eat. This is my first time having an issue with the food here, it’s normally excellent.

    Absolutely awful - wouldn’t suggest to my worst enemy. The manager was incredibly rude to my friend on his birthday and sat us over an hour late. He refused to accept any wrong doing and threatened to kick us out when we expressed any frustration for being seated over an hour late past our reservation time. On top of this the service was god awful and food was below mediocre. Even if the food was good, I wouldn’t ever go back because of how rude, degrading, and disrespectful the management staff was. ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS

    It was a fun brunch with my friend, however, the only thing I was not satisfied was that it took our server a while to bring water at the beginning of service. Place looked under staffed but I think the place could be watchful and ask servers to check in with guests shortly after seated. Food was great, drinks were awesome !

    The food was really good, however, it took an absurd amount of time to get our second round of drinks and over an hour for our food to come. We were told the number of modifications to our food it why it was taking so long, modifications being no bacon on a sandwich. Our food came and one person in our group did not get theirs and came out roughly 20 minutes later and by that point, we were all done with our food since we waited so long for ours to begin with. The food was great and the restaurant was super cute but the service truly took away from the whole experience.

    Great place for a casual date night, great and varied menu options. The cocktail options are great and the staff is very friendly.
