Waitress was ok seemed like she had to warm up to the table first. Food came out warm. I had the egg white omelette and for as long as it took I would have expected everything to be fresh and hot. My daughter had the Nashville chicken sandwich which was ok and hot but fries were cold. Pancakes and French toast were just ok as they were all cold as well. Wouldn’t go back

We booked a brunch reservation at 8:45. The restaurant was quiet but still bustling. The coffee was amazing. The hazelnut oat mocha is like Nutella coffee, SO GOOD. Fresh squeezed orange juice, deep dish quiche, you can't really ask for more. We will be back for sure!

They use a portion of the restaurant by the kitchen to really run the business and sit there and have meetings and scheduling. It’s really irritating. you would think that they do that mom and Pa, not a professional organization.

Great vibes and friendly staff but the food was underwhelming. I got the chicken Bebe and it was like warm and soggy all around. It was not crispy at all. The kennebec fries were hollow and dry tasting. My colleagues got the salmon and tacos and they all thought the food was just okay.

Cute interior, knowledable staff that was quick to support our table of 2, despite the presence of larger tables near us. The food was served quickly and the drinks came out on time and the App was served prior to enteees as you would expect. Our server was friendly and prepared to explain everything we needed to know about entree choices. We'll done, Beatrix!

For appetizers, the Brussel sprouts, whipped feta and hummus were amazing. For dinner we had the salmon and the white fish both were outstanding. For dessert, we had the tiramisu and the chocolate cake. Both outstanding but I personally liked the tiramisu better.

Great atmosphere and great food calls for great company. Located at base of hotel but has a nice, lively outdoor seating. Went for brunch and every dish was tasty. Got the prime burger (med rare), spicy chicken rings (good flavors but definitely didn’t taste any spice to it) and avocado spread with 2 eggs. Caramel pie for dessert which was very decadent, delicious but I definitely want to try the chocolate cake next time!

We had a surprisingly long wait even though we had a reservation. Once we sat down, the service was very poor. The waitress came to our table three times in total, not including bringing the check. The food took a very long time to come, and it was fairly bland. We had high expectations, and this restaurant definitely dropped the ball.

Nice setting and pleasant, attentive service. We were there for a breakfast meeting on a Friday and it seemed as though the B team were in the kitchen that day. I ordered the Shashuka. The tomato base was surprisingly flavorless and covered in a thick layer of raw kale, including the stems. Raw kale, while quite nice, should be used sparingly, and the raw stems avoided entirely as they are hard and very difficult to chew. Not a good showing by one of my "go to" restaurants.
