We went on a Saturday night around 6 and the restaurant was dead. We were nervous since it was our first time and there were no customers. But dinner was great and the service was super helpful. We highly recommend.

Food and service for brunch was excellent. Server Jose and Chef were kind and spot on with orders and service. Especially refilling our Mimosas! Will definitely return. The lobster Mac & Cheese was amazing. As was the lobster eggs Benedict, brunch burger and bread pudding. So glad we tried this little gem!

The brunch here is excellent. Great brunch menu, the French toast is awesome as is the cheese steak omelet and the breakfast burger and crispy fries. Service was spot-on. Definitely a keeper and will return to try other menus.

The entire menu is filled with gastro delights. Was there for Sunday brunch. Excellent choices. Hard to decide. The breakfast burger was excellent. Bottomless mimosas and great cappuccino. Going back very soon. Jose provides great service.

The food was excellent as was the service. The only reason we don’t give it 5 stars overall is there was a DJ playing and we really just wanted to talk. There didn’t seem to be a lot of people there for the music. It is a lovely restaurant and bar, and loud music just wasn’t necessary for the experience. Maybe if the volume had been a little lower… But it is definitely one of our go-to restaurants in SoNo.
