Food was great and having a reservation for a Sunday morning was a really good idea. We had a 1030 slot for four people and there was a huge line hoping to get in without reservations. Food is fresh and prepared with love, along with knowledgable servers and gracious host staff. I had one item not come with my meal as ordered and when it finally did arrive the server insisted on taking it off my bill....classy service and great food! Can't wait to go back.

Great service and great food and not too expensive. Seemed like a young energetic staff. The menu was really good for breakfast, I had buttermilk blueberry pancakes with maple syrup and they were delicious. The wife's eggs Benedict were also quite good. Overall a nice experience especially for a hotel's restaurant.
