I’ll start with an overall score: 8/10
Here’s why:
1. Service was fast and staff was friendly and accommodating
2. Most of the food was good, we went for brunch so it’s as good as breakfast/brunch goes
3. Knocking off some points because the steak was a bit too rare and unseasoned, but then again I started straying away from meat at the time so that’s my bias.
4. Food and drinks were honestly good, and the price for 5 adults and 2 kids was $180-$200 THAT is not bad.
Prices are fair, food is pretty good, service was great.

The food is good. Especially the eggs Benedict with real Hollandaise sauce. It's busy, so best make reservations.
Our server was pouty and couldn't crack a smile only when it canto the bill and expecting a big tip
Toast was awesome! I had a matcha martini 🍸 & it was amazing & the Filet Mignon-béarnaise was delicious too.

Wonderful breakfast before our trip home. Also, thank you for making a REAL hollandaise and not adding creams and other unnecessary things! Service was also amazing!

I've tried several times and constantly am let down by the endless wait times, even during the week, no wait staff and nobody is attentive to customers. Food is okay and atmosphere is good, but not worth the poor service.

We decided to try this place and we are glad we came here. The hostess was very kind and the server immediately brought us nice cold water and asked if we wanted any drinks we both got their coffee ☕ which is lavazza dark roast. I really enjoyed the coffee. The food was absolutely delicious and we really enjoyed it and we will absolutely come back if in the area again.

We made 8am reservation for 4 on Father’s Day 2025. As soon as we’re greeted by the host wearing a suit and tie. The outfit greatly enhanced the entire dining experience. He quickly finds our reservation and we’re seated within a minute. All the servers are wearing black with the restaurant beautifully decorated. We had a toddler with us so it was nice of them to seat us in a booth towards the end of the restaurant since the kids can get boisterous. Everyone wished me a Happy Father’s Day and I felt like a VIP there. We ordered 2 waters but the server was so thoughtful and brought waters for all 4 of us. I asked my country potatoes to include sausage gravy, when the plate first arrived without the gravy, I didn’t even notice, our dear server, Jacob, immediately grabbed the plate and apologized for the missing gravy and brought it back smothered. The sausage gravy is worth the extra charge since the sausage pieces are HUGE. I ordered the filet mignon eggs Benedict and although the filet could be more rare, it was still tender and the eggs perfectly runny. My son ordered the simple breakfast with 2 scrambled eggs and was shocked at how much eggs were on the plate. The simple breakfast comes with toast and oh man, that was some beautiful toast. My wife got the salmon Benedict eggs with hash browns. We’ve never seen hash browns fried to such perfection. They must throw them in the fryer instead of the grill top cause each piece was crispy golden brown. Daughter was sick so we just got her the fries and chicken tenders. That plate came out freshly fried. Those fries were not sitting on a warming pan. They came fresh out of the fryer. So I can understand why this place has a 4 star. You come with a big party with high expectations and order food with special instructions, it’s going to get shifty. Not sure how much kitchen space they have but there was a ton of tables so it’s understandable they can get easily overwhelmed. Our total bill was $110 and added a 20% tip. Breakfast for a family of four at such a lovely classy restaurant on Father’s Day with such amazing service was priceless.

The maple bacon waffle was divine!
The place it self is very nice, the atmosphere and the staff were very friendly.
Very cute decoration that invite you for some Instagram pictures!
This place was highly recommended. It was overpriced. Additionally, it seemed like I had to piece together a whole meal. I was not pleased with the way my eggs were cooked after being very specific on how I wanted them. After mentioning they weren't cooked as requested, they were sent back to the kitchen, and then came back out on the plate not having been moved. They were simply put under a heat lamp or microwaved. When I mentioned this, the server appeared put out by my frustration the eggs looked worse than they first came out. No offer was made to remove them from my bill even though I didn't have a single bite because they looked disgusting.
The restaurant looked nice, and we only waited a few minutes to be seated—not a big deal. The problems started when the food arrived. The staff shouted out dish names and slammed the plates down while asking who ordered what. Not exactly a warm experience.
As for the food? It was just okay. Everything lacked flavor, the ingredients tasted cheap, and the presentation was sloppy. It felt like no one cared about the quality, the appearance, or the overall dining experience.
This was my first time here, and unfortunately, nothing stood out—in a good way. Not the food, not the service, not the vibe. Wouldn’t recommend.
Cute aesthetic, slightly upscale cafe. Generous portions
Teresa was so nice and friendly!! She checked in on us multiple times and went above and beyond for us! We had such a nice time and we thank Teresa for that! 😊
