Gave 5 stars for Food, Service, and Atmosphere. Everything was just perfect. The prices are pretty average considering the quality of everything. The restaurant is very clean and has a cozy vibe inside. The servers are very professional and all waiters/waitresses are helping you with whatever you need unlike 99% of places where only the waiter thats waiting your table will help you out.

We ordered the benedict and french toast which were both perfect in taste...

Excellent service, elevated menu, in a beautifully appointed restaurant. The only downside is having to use the hospital center restrooms which, on a Saturday evening were quite unkempt. Otherwise, a lovely place to eat for a nicer lunch or evening out.
November 2025
Great place, food, service, ambience, all was 10 out of 10. We had crispy cauliflower and blackenes fish tacos, aide salad and berries were generous size. Would return and also recommend to others.
