It serves popular dishes like the American omelet (western) and Eggs Benedict with lox, along with a limited brunch menu.

We had eggs, hashbrowns and, sausage and also an omelet with grits. Food was average but good.

The service was not very good as the waitress did not seem she enjoyed being there as was the same for the other servers I observed. Our server did not talk to us only to ask, "what would you like to order", peeking out the door to were we sat she asked, "is eveything ok" then closed the door so quickly we didn't have time to answer! I found happier servers in less expensive...read full review

Our waiter was fantastic and the timely service superb!

Food is good.... But waitress Nicole as I wasn't not even half way done with what I was eating, she came and gave me the receipt with out knowing if I was done or about to order something else...I fell like if she was kicking me out from the restaurant, after that still I'm eating and she asked me if I needed a box to take out what I was still eating ...I told her I'm still eating. At that moment I felted unwanted in the restaurant.
