I dined at this restaurant for brunch with my boyfriend and it was a nice environment super cute in there with a lot of variety in seating options, including some couches which is cool! Our server Savannah was really nice and attentive. I had the Veggie Benny, it was delicious and filling! I also ordered a mimosa- very good but it wasn’t that big so if you’re going to order more than one I would just go for the bottomless ;) My boyfriend tried Country Fried Steak which he wasn’t super impressed with but it came with a lot of stuff and he liked the sides. I would suggest getting there early to find parking and just a heads up it gets pretty loud so maybe try to go on a less busy day or ask for a corner table or outside seat if you’re looking for a more intimate dining experience.Parking: 1-2 hour limits on most parking spots and a lot of parking spots only have 15 min limits.

YUM! OAK filet was AMAZING. The grilled asparagus & garlic mash were also delish. My boyfriend said his burger was slightly dry, but nonetheless delicious and the waffle fries were his fave ever. And the best of all……. THE PECAN PIE⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ omg. I love pie. It was so good. I’ll be returning when my bank account recovers?????

Wanted something different for a Sunday brunch; we ordered a mix, standard breakfast items and a special. Spicy chicken and biscuits were pretty good, stuffed waffles were ok (bacon was chewy). I think the ribeye special was unevenly seared but overall was good. We didn't want a traditional breakfast and that's what we got.Atmosphere was a bit loud; they had some big parties sit while we were there. Definitely want to try a dinner there.

Lovely restaurant my only problem was that the music was very loud, and coupled with just regular customer noise the atmosphere was overwhelming. I felt like I had to yell so my server could hear me. Food was great for

Bad service. Good food and nice atmosphere, but our waitress Tess was off in another world. We had to flag her down after waiting 30 mins to finally order our first drink, another 40 mins later to place food order, and then again to ask for the bill. Never once checked on us once we had our food. All the other tables around us were in and out while we sat having to scan the room waving down our waitress.

Good happy hour. Limited wine list. Most folks get burgers. Our vegetarian bowl and stuffed jalapenos were good.
