    What a pleasant brunch! We were seated right away with our reservation and our server greeted us immediately. He provided superior, polite service our entire meal. The food was top notch! The fried green tomatoes were a hit! Everything we had was really good, and at a very reasonable price. Can’t wait to go back!

    Fantastic dinner on Valentines Day. Prix Iixe menu was outstanding - something for everyone. Wine pairings were very well done. Enjoyed the entire night. One bit of advice - parking here is at a premium and nearby businesses do not like to share. So, take an Uber/Lyft if you can.

    Was glad to be able to enjoy a fine Christmas Day dinner at Braise. Was our first visit and the availability of a buffet smorgasbord made for a pleasurable experience. Staff was very good considering they were working on Christmas day. Nice atmosphere and comfortable seating arrangements. Would definitely come back again.
