Very slow waiter, it was empty in there because it was mid-afternoon & we had went just before the Saturday evening rush & he'd dissappear for long periods of time & didn't come back to check on us & forgot to bring us a few things we asked for. However he was nice, the food was great.

Ella was amazing and made me feel so good throughout my brunch experience. Will 100% come back! Thanks Ella for going above and beyond to make sure my friend and I were taken care of!

Ricardo was our waiter & he was 10/10! He was jumping around from hosting to bussing to serving, and as people who have worked in the industry he was so involved we thought he was management! Very kind and personable guy, plus great drinks! Will come again when back in New Haven!
