    We came for brunch after church with a friend. The service was exceptional from the moment we walked in the door! Our server, Jared, was attentive, funny, helpful and charming! You can't ask for more. Our food came out pretty quickly, considering the place was packed! My husband had the garbage bowl (or something to that effect) and our friend and I both had Benedicts. They were fabulous. Oh! Have one of their fun mimosas! We'll be back!

    The steak rolls were the highlight. Extremely delicious. The steak was okay. The Diane sauce wasn't either of our favorite thing. Mashed potatoes and asparagus were very good.
