    We had a wonderful brunch this morning and Lauren B. Was an awesome waitress. She was kind and very attentive, and brought the food to us. It was a very enjoyable brunch.

    Absolutely fantastic meal and drinks! My only complaint was that we were seated at a table next to the open air window, and the loud motorcycles periodically made conversation a bit difficult. Otherwise, a great experience, wonderful service, and a delicious meal. Highly recommended!

    Dinners of grilled tofu and the scallops were very good. The fried grits cakes served with the scallops had good flavor but were somewhat pasty for my palate. The featured pear- flavored martini was too sweet and lacked depth in flavor; I admit to the label “cocktail curmudgeon”. Service excellent and ambiance lively!
