   Excellent host! Manager acknowledged our anniversary noted on our reservation. We received a complimentary appetizer and complimentary mimosa! Our server was superb. She gave us options and ideas for our meaI, which turned out great. I asked for warm blueberry jam and she worked it out for me. The food was fresh and simply delicious. Great overall service. 👌

   Server was pretty bad. She messed up my first drink I asked for a half and half which is sweat tea and lemonade but she gave me half sweet tea and half unsweetened tea. My wife ordered a cocktail and she completely forgot about it. Had to ask for refills even though our drinks were empty which took some time as well. The server then charged my card for someone else’s meal lol but she reversed it immediately and apologized. I believe it was a long night and we caught her at the bottom of her game. If my reservation was early I’m pretty sure the service would have been better. The food was amazing I will be back but earlier next time around.

   Everything about this place screams excellence. From the food, to the service and even having very reasonable parking next door. We definitely are going to have to go back here.

   Great atmosphere, wonderful staff and servers. Food very good, a bit loud, but there was a large group of 15+. Would recommend!

   It could have been a bad day, but everything that could have gone wrong, went wrong today. It took an hour and a half to eat. Two drinks and two entrees. No explanation of the delay and no apologies. When I asked why service was so slow, I was dismissed. From sit down to being recognized by our waitress - 12 minutes. Others seemed to be in the same boat in our section. Food was okay at best. I can chalk it up to a bad day, I guess, but beware.

   I have been to this location numerous times and they are typically very friendly and kind and the food is good but today I experienced a first . Our waiter made a mistake on our order and he accused us of being wrong which I found to be rude and offensive . He said “I heard you want to change your order” and I responded “no, this is what i ordered originally” and he said “no, I remember you pointing and I asked you to confirm”. Why did the waiter get defensive ? When I originally ordered the breakfast platter he asked what protein I want and how I want my eggs . When I had to correct the order he didn’t ask me again but I got the correct eggs and protein. This means that he definitely wrote the order down correctly the first time which means it was definitely his mistake. It was wrong of the waiter to get defensive .

   Great brunch spot with moderately priced dishes. Breakfast serving sizes are average/small. I felt full but not overly stuffed after finishing my plates. Blueberry iced coffee was great. My server was fantastic. Was a little on the noisy side- especially for a Monday.
