Great experience! Went in for brunch on Friday morning. I had the mushroom toast. Pork sausage was delicious.
Great food and service

The atmosphere seemed very clean and was very nice inside. Although, our server only came over to us to order and then give us our check. We never got refills on any of our drinks and there was only 2 other people in the restaurant. We got one app (wings) and 2 meals and the total came out to be $90. The fettuccine noodles tasted hard like they were not fully cooked.

Breakfast was very good, great potatoes! parking was very expensive for the time spent at the meal. Pleasant staff.
Best service and food I’ve had since visiting Chicago! Bonus points for the best ranch as well

Good food, good vibes, good people. We visited during our time in Chicago and had brunch there. Wasn’t crowded at all. Service was quick and the food was good. Would visit whenever we come back.

So happy we ate here today for our Christmas brunch! Quick service, helpful if you have a toddler. They had crayons and a cute city pic to color. All our dishes were excellent. I got the croissant sandwich with breakfast potatoes- potatoes were very very good!! My son got the pancake, I was expecting something small but it was a generous portion. My MIL had some granola/yogurt. All very very good, very nice staff, beautiful space.

Wow, we were so happy with our Christmas brunch :) everything we ordered was delicious and surprisingly quick! So happy we stopped in here, friendly and accommodating staff :)
I'll get right to the point. The vibe was super dead, the place was awkwardly quiet, the lighting was a bit uncomfortable, several mugs at our table appeared to have old coffee stains in them, the restaurant appeared to be short-staffed and the stress from the restaurant team that was present was palpable. It felt really awkward to the point where my family and I actually got up and left. We did not dine in.
Not crowded; reservations were not required. Food was not exceptional, the ambiance was bland. Don't order coffee...get Starbucks instead. Not a restaurant I would rush to return to. Not much of a "wow" factor.

The food is amazing, the atmosphere is beautiful, and the service is awesome! There was no wait, and we got our food and drinks in a timely manor. My boyfriend and I have come here for happy hour twice. The fries are hand cut and fresh, and the burger is so big and juicy we ordered one and split it! The drinks are also so delicious!! I highly highly recommend coming here! Definitely come during happy hour for that amazing happy hour menu!

Went here twice so far. Atmosphere is nice and food is good but, the first time they sat me down, place was empty it took over 25 mins for the waiter to get my order. Second time I got breakfast, they sat us down. We ordered and are but when it came to paying that took another 30-40 mins for someone to come back and check on us.

We arrived at at 2:55 pm for a 3:15 pm reservation. The manager sat a large group first. Understandably. Another three party group arrived and their reservation was at 3:00 pm. The manager sat them down next. The three looked surprised because we'd been waiting, but I explained our reservation wasn't until 3:15. Then the manager came and sat us at exactly 3:15 pm. There were lots of empty tables and it wasn't at capacity when we left. It seemed that everyone was accommodated promptly, but us. One of the guys from the three party group even walked up to me and said, I can't believe he made you wait until your exact reservation time while seating the rest of us promptly. I agreed with him. The food was overall good. I wish there'd been a few more savory options for the Thanksgiving buffet price. Unsure if I'll return or recommend this place just based on the first impression.
The food was great, nothing too fancy but true American food. The prices were very correct for the location.
Very quiet and modern atmosphere.
We'd appreciate a more elaborated dessert menu.

The food was just okay and the atmosphere was fine. We ordered the goat cheese and wild mushroom toast(s). The goat cheese toast came with a premade avocado spread, which wasn’t great, especially for the price. My husband also found an eyelash in his food, though they did remake it. The bill ended up around $40–$50, and honestly, I wouldn’t go back.
