    What the heck. This place was quite the surprise. It blew us away. The food was surprisingly good. We ordered several different times, and each time the food came out fresh, hot, quickly, and looked like an artist put it together. The jumbo shrimp with cilantro goodness was amazing. Calamari better than it should have been. The service was amazing. The prices? Way too low. Happy hour prices are ridiculous. I mean so ridiculously low. I think maybe they just love people. I’m not sure. I’d make this my go to spot if I lived here.

    This was the first time we came to the restaurant for breakfast. It was delicious! My sister and I ordered the Vanilla French Toast and we both loved them an almost finished eating them. She did order some bacon and it was cooked perfectly too. Our brother ordered the Breakfast Club Sandwich and he loved his meal too! It was a great day at the Breakfast Club! We will definitely go back to eat!

    It was my first time there with my friend and we really enjoyed ourselves. We opted to sit in the restaurant area and the music was nice. Definitely snapping and singing along. The staff was very friendly, and attentive to our needs. Our server Christopher was amazing. He gave us great suggestions on appetizers and entree selections and they were perfect. Get the Grand Marnier wings and the oxtail dinner. The rum cake did not appoint. I had the hands on your knees drink and it was good. Stop thinking about it and go.
