I rarely write reviews. I only write them when the experience is exceptionally great or exceptionally terrible. In this case, it was the latter. We should have turned around when there seemed to be confusion on whether thhey would seat us for brunch/lunch… it appeared they were closing down. I asked them if we should leave (we had a reservation)and they said no. I will say they tried… but the basic food I ordered (wings) were grossly over cooked, the fires I got anppeared to be freezer burned before thawing, and drinks were watered down. They ran out of coke… so husband just got water. It seems this place is struggling. I would give them another chance as it seems like it was/could be an awesome place. Maybe they were having a really bad day.

Yikes.. always wanted to try this place and finally got around to it. Went for brunch on a Sunday just after 11:00. Restaurant was about 20%. Service was fine, pleasant, but kinda slow. The food and drinks were pretty bad. Watered down, unoriginal cocktails served in jars. The omelet on a croissant was just that. An omelet on a croissant... Eggs, made with bacon on a dry croissant. Absolutely no flavor. The eggs Benedict were pretty plain and didn't get finished. All in all, $55 for something you could have gotten at Denny's for half the price.

The staff was professional and very cordial. The fish sandwich was good, but the coleslaw was a little too sweet. The pancakes could use more flavor, and they were dense. Now I say this because every restaurant has areas of improvement. Overall, we enjoyed the restaurant and staff, just some adjustments on the pancakes and sandwiches are needed in my opinion.

Our service was great, my husbands chicken was phenomenal. Unfortunately my seafood linguini was not great (I was hangry so I unfortunately at most of it and ended up with 2 days of GI issues). The crème brûlée was scrambled eggs. The waitress was so nice and we were so hungry after a long day attending a surf competition that we didn’t have the energy to make a stink. Will not be back, a shame as this has been on our list for sometime as we drive by often.

If you order the salmon, tell them not to overcook it. Waitress (Irene??) was amazing. On top of our order and very helpful in seating my 94 yo mother who uses a walker. I wouldn't recommend the Brussel sprout appetizer. Too much honey.
