The food, quality, and lack of selection were very disappointing. They did not even have orange juice for mimosas and no tomato for avocado toast. I had avocado toast, my husband had waffles, and my nephew had the full breakfast. The food was mediocre as was the service. Our bill totaled $100 and we felt totally ripped off. We will not be back.

The food was very good but the service was awful. Waiters were slow to get to our table and there were only two other tables occupied. I won’t be back.

Service wasn’t very attentive. Hostess and waiter both took too long to acknowledge us. They just needed to look up and around to notice guests were waiting. Food was great but service could definitely use some work.

I was meeting two old friends I hadn’t seen for a while and we wanted a place with good food where we could converse without having to yell to be heard by each other. Simonette was right on the money. Two of us had the onion soup and the oysters while the third had the beef bourginon - All the dishes were well prepared and we enjoyed the meal.

The service was friendly and fairly efficient. Biggest issue is the noise level. It’s very loud and probably wouldn’t appeal to older guests like we are. The food was good though.

The outdoor patio is a gem! Staff were very nice. I think the happy hour burgers and house cocktail are some of the best value in Culver City.
