    We went for brunch and set at the bar. The tables for two in the restaurant are quite small, but certainly wouldn’t detour me from eating there. We enjoyed sitting at the bar and had ample space. The brunch menu is small, but very good. They have gluten free options and our server (bartender) was familiar with what I could have. Highly recommend!

    The Eggs Benedict were inedible. The appetizers were fair.

    Excellent food & drinks! It was a Sunday morning and SUPER loud music - they were very accommodating and turned the music down. Great time.

    Very good value for some very well prepared steak frites. The room is not much to look at, and it’s pretty loud in there, but the food was delicious, the servers friendly, and the pricing is very fair. What’s not to love?

    Staff was helpful, but I wish they had been a bit more transparent regarding prices and portion sizes. Be prepared to pay over $3 for a small glass of water. Despite this, I enjoyed the overall experience.

    Came for brunch. Service was attentive. Had the steak and eggs, and the French toast and sausage. Food was delicious. Will come again.

    What they don't offer in variety is made up by quality: the bread, butter,salad & dessert were great! Steak/frites great. Our server, Andy, outstanding.

    If you are going to have one item on the menu, it needs to be perfect–this was not. The dessert was delicious but frankly the steak was disappointing.
