   #1: the service was terrific! Our server was friendly, careful to get 4 different orders correct, and helpful. #2: one diner said it was the best restaurant Bloody Mary he ever had. #3: food was delicious, tasty---there for brunch, all egg entrees, that were prepared just as we wanted them #4: only reason for not giving them 5 stars was the noise level. I know the restaurant can do only so much but it was a difficult at times to be heard. They had a number of big parties that didn't help. It was crowded which I guess is a testament to how good it is. #5: be aware they do not have decaf coffee (another reason for the 4 instead of 5 stars. Please fix this. #6: We will return and I highly recommend you go there.

   Out to Sunday Brunch with my 3 sisters, celebrating birthdays. Had a great time, our waitress was very accommodating. Brought a cake and birthday candles, thought we wouldn't be able to sing HB or blow out candles but waitress brough cakes and candle lit at end of meal! food was delicious. Will definitely be back, a little noisy but it was school vacation week.

   Im not one to write a review but i was disappointed this visit. Sat us at a table near the cold window and i was shivering barely saw our server. Manager came over to say they “Ran out” of chicken pot pie which was the only reason i came for my valentines dinner. Idk how you run out of pot pie at 430 but sure. Then got lukewarm mac&cheese that i barely ate. Shouldve left after i got told about the pot pie.

   Please note when making a reservation- despite being offered the choice of a “standard” table vs “high top” when reserving on open table, they consistently disregard this and instead treat it as a request. My experience at any other restaurant that distinguishes types of tables available for reservation is that it has always been honored. My recommendation to the restaurant would be to remove this option entirely if they do not intend on honoring. Food and service have always been great, but this happening to us two times in a row has unfortunately made this a no go restaurant for us moving forward. It seems that low tops are all mapped out for large parties, leaving smaller groups the only option of a high top which doesn’t work with our small baby.

   Everything was excellent! Only criticism would be the music volume made it difficult to have a conversation with the people I was dining with.

   The noise was not energetic as the rating scale indicates. It was obnoxiously loud.

    Delicious food & drink, great service, but extremely loud place. It was hard to hear my friend just across the table.
