My table had been forgotten by our server, but the management apologized and politely asked us to return in the future for better service. The food was very good and we enjoyed having a table outside to people-watch.

Wow, what a rip off! Your online menu has a photo of two pieces of bread with avocado and egg fo the avocado toast but my order contained only one piece! Really, for $16? This is the last time I’ll ever eat at any restaurants in your chain. Ridiculous!!

Our waitress Sheri was fantastic. Food was good as well as service. Mac and cheese and the lemon drop drink, Sheri recommended was great.

My friends and I mainly went there for drinks, particularly the bottomless mimosas, and thoroughly enjoyed the watermelon mimosas. The other flavors were great as well, but after people tried the watermelon mimosa I had, everyone started following through. In terms of food, I enjoyed my Mediterranean bowl because it had the right ingredients, ranging from couscous to roasted red peppers to hummus to tzatziki to crispy pita strips. Every component complemented the other ones. It did slightly feel like everything was just placed together without much mixing, meaning the dish had less depth, but at least the ingredients were all correct. I had a bit of the steak & fries as well, and thought that the dish was overall too oily, which in turn made the broccolini very oily as well. One could argue it would make the broccolini taste better, and I wouldn’t disagree with that. I just thought the amount of oil was too much. My friends around me overall had positive comments about their food, which I didn’t end up trying. People were definitely more interested in the drinks, which was valid given it was brunch time. It was good to see that they offered an unlimited brunch option. Since neither my friends nor I was a big eater, we didn’t pursue that option. It’s still nice to have, though.

Though our server was nice, the food was nothing to write home about. Out of everything we ordered the only thing that stood out was the seafood leek soup. That item was delicious! The order medium well lamb. Though it was well plated, sadly only one piece was medium well and neither had flavor. My husbands macaroni and cheese was bland. He would have sent it back but he was hungry so he ask for old bay seasoning to make it bearable but by the time the waitstress returned it was cold. 🫠 Oh and I forgot to mention the bird poop that was on my small plate when we were seated outside.
