    Very slow service Pancakes were inedible Not freshly made , prepackaged and were hard and frozen , we couldn’t eat them Manager was nice to reimburse Not sure if they are just starting out or understaff but we were underwhelmed with the place It sits on a nice street and the actual place is very nicely decorated and all food items orders for the table comes out in a nice charcuterie type board . If service and food improves would up the star rating Rooting for them

    Greta food, very nice staff. But they are understaffed and it is quite a wait to be seated and even longer to be served. We could tell the staff was working really hard and going nonstop to keep up with the demand.

    Service was terrible. Mimosa Flight was $35 and it wasn’t worth it. Food was okay, nothing memorable. Nice atmosphere.

    Shockingly awful. Deserves a zero but had to give one star. Service was the worst I have experienced in several years. When our coffees arrived no spoons were provided. After asking 3 times a spoon was finally delivered. After 25 minutes my wife had to rise from the table and find a waiter and ask for him to take our food order. The response “yeah whatever”. At that point we nearly walked out but I was now hungry and maybe interested to see how bad this could get. Another waitress came and took an order. A note for the manager - your staff are inefficient and ineffective, they wander around aimlessly and certainly with no purpose. When our food was delivered, “enjoy”. How? No napkin or cutlery provided. So the positives. Food was good and expensive, but expected due to central location. Coffee was okay. I get the experience they are trying to deliver, but they are falling way short on the service side.

    It’s a great idea, just not executed well. The portions are not great, and on a Saturday morning they were out of pancakes and a few other items. Just not worth the expensive price.

    They moved locations but Apple Maps is not up to date with this, so finding the address was difficult. The restaurant didn’t answer the phone despite several calls. With a reservation, we still didn’t get seated for 40 minutes. Once seated, it took 10 minutes before someone came for our drink order. The brunch food portions are very small for the price. A flight of mimosas (estimated 2 standard glasses of champagne) costs $35 but was not advertised that way on the menu.

    Food was good and servers were really nice but it was clear they were understaffed. They continued to be mice while being visibly frustrated after running out of eggs. The place has nice ambiance and food concept is cool. Hopefully they are able to get more servers and eggs.

    The brunch bar was amazing! The lattes were the right mix of sweet and the French toast was to DIE for! It came with a sweet cream and fruit that complimented it so well. The staff was delightful and very attentive!
