Can't recommend for any reason, particularly for the price and when there are wonderful alternatives all around at the same price point, and some with better atmosphete. Why? Food was very mediocre. Coffee tasted like folgers. Disappointing last brunch.

The food was good; the only flaw was that they forgot the sauce, but otherwise everything was fine!

Undercooked, cold, overpriced food. When you tell the server, they say 'sorry' and that's it! Save your money, McDonald's has better
food and service!

Had the chicken and waffles. Good but was a bit disappointed because the waffles were a bit dense and dry. Eggs were super good tho. Our waitress was very nice but the wait was pretty long at times.

This place is attached to out Bluegreen building so we gave a shot for breakfast. Service was a little slow to be greeted but came out quick. It was pretty busy I’m sure it was because there was a riot going on around the corner. Food wasn’t anything you must have but it was good. I got the eggs Benedict and the eggs were very small. If I go back will try something different

We had breakfast here and were pleasantly surprised with the vibe and options they had. They do have vegan and gluten free options- though somewhat limited. I got the vegan pancakes which were okay, but nothing to write home about. The shredded hash browns were yummy and my friends enjoyed their food. Whoever was on aux had the best music taste & our server was very attentive and kind. They do not split bills- they said they can do one bill or split it evenly in half- kind of odd, but just expect that if you’re going with a group. Overall, it was a nice breakfast spot but because of the limited options, I would not go again.

Coffee was not the best and shakshuka a bit too spicy. Omelette was good.

Certain dishes are better than others for sure. If you want nothing spectacular, this is the place for you. Not hating on the place but not giving it any praise either. Very middle of the road.
