Good atmosphere in a fantastic mix of bar, restaurant and pub. Excellent service, very good food. Above average prices and pre-programmed tip options at checkout.

This was unfortunately the worst brunch I’ve ever had. I ordered the eggs Benedict, my partner had the French toast. The sauce on the Benedict tasted terrible, there was a big wet tomato at the bottom that made the bread soggy, the meat was oh so dry, and the eggs weren’t poached, they were cooked in those little cups. The egg slipped off the toast while being brought to my table which only enhanced how depressing the meal was. The French toast was greasy and tasted like it had been cooked in old grease that had been used to cook a ton of different stuff. Even the coffee tasted like the complimentary stuff you might get in your hotel room. The matcha latte came with a shot of espresso, which I’ve never seen before and tasted as bad as you might expect. I suspect the kitchen is mostly an assembly line slapping pre made food together, because that’s what it looked and tasted like. This was the first time I left a meal without eating anything. Such a shame because the place looked bumping and seemed like it would have a great vibe. The servers were really nice though, and that’s the only reason I’m giving two stars instead of one.

Came here on a Saturday at noon so peak lunchtime, but it still was super fast service - we got seated right away. Good: I really liked the french toast here - it's nicely toasted and griddled so it has a really nice fluffy texture. Also, the mac and cheese was AMAZING here - I don't think I usually get mac and cheese for breakfast, but it made a lot of sense here. Bad: Wasn't as much of a fan of the burger - it was a bit hard to cut and had a lot of flavors. Definitely had to flag down the waiters to get the right menu and also the check - so it was more of a slower process and extended brunch which I didn't mind too much. Overall much better experience than the 3 star rating that I saw on Yelp!

Cute place. But…. Very disappointed. The cheesy bread came out cold. Risotto with asparagus and Mary’s chicken sounds good on paper but not at all what I expected when the plate hit the table. Looked like dog food (check out the photo below). I was expecting some freshly grilled asparagus and roasted chicken with some well done risotto. Not at all what I got on my plate. The risotto was unevenly cooked. Overall very disappointing!!!! Best part of my experience was the outdoor heated lamps and the margarita!!!
