An American restaurant without American sized portions. The food is good but simple; just a basic meal made with actual ingredients instead of fast food slop. I've definitely had better food in larger portions for the same price but you won't feel scammed by what you get at least. Servers are kind, you just can't always find them when you need them.

This place started out really well when it first opened. But each time we go there, the quality of the food declines.
Today is my birthday and as I am stuck on a project, my sister decided to risk it and get take out.
I ordered a chicken Caesar salad. Imagine my surprise when I opened the container and saw a tiny bed of lettuce and 3 small slices of grilled chicken. However, the biggest issue was that the salad was dry- no dressing on the salad, no dressing on the side- which defeats the point of Caesar salad completely. Additionally, the Parmesan was clearly shaved off the rind and tasted like hard cardboard.
Inedible. If I could assign no stars, I would. Avoid!

The managers are rude the flamboyant one and the heavy set one especially. Sauce packets were expired i had a feeling and later inspections proved me right! Food taste like something you can get from the hospital. Over priced

This was my first visit. The food portions were generous and everything was tasty. Great service too. We will be back!
I waited a long time, service is ok but it can be better, manager seems a bit rude atmosphere looked like a circus

I genuinely wish I could erase this experience because it completely ruined my appetite. From the moment we walked in, everything felt off — we were ignored for an uncomfortably long time, the staff seemed annoyed by our presence, and the place just felt unclean and chaotic. When the food finally came, it was barely warm, poorly made, and honestly gross enough that I couldn’t finish it; it tasted like it had been sitting out and reheated without care. The prices made it even worse because nothing about the food or service came close to justifying them. By the end, I just wanted to leave as fast as possible, and I absolutely would not feel comfortable eating here again. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone — save your money and your stomach and go literally anywhere else.

I enjoyed my fried chicken sandwich but my husband's burger was just ok. He was never asked how he wanted it cooked. We had major confusion on our bill, which our server mixed up with another table. He tried to correct the overcharge and involved a 3rd table, but it has not come through as an electronic receipt yet ( the following day). If the overcharge remains, we will contest it with our charge card company.
Wonderful brunch with attentive service and delicious food, accommodated our party's various dietary needs. Great for families with young children
Very convenient. Quality cocktails

I have been there several times and the food has generally been decent, but this past time , it was abysmal. The soup tasted as though came from a can. Secondly, the pasta with pesto was as though someone placed pasta into a vat of pesto sauce. Completely overwhelmed and too salty. The beet salad was mildly acceptable, though it seemed to be drenched in store-bought French dressing. The short ribs were rather fatty. All in all I would never return again

Had a lovely brunch today at Corner Bistro. The American breakfast and Avocado Benedict were both good. We particularly appreciated our server, Henry. He was welcoming and kind and went the extra mile to make the overall experience a good one during a busy Sunday brunch. We will definitely return.

Nice setting for a quiet Sunday Brunch. Lovely dining room, good service. The menu is not overwhelming like some breakfast places. We tried the omelette with vege ragout filling and the buttermilk fried chicken sandwich . Both were yummy. One drawback was the lack of expresso coffee options to pair a nice latte with your brunch.
We went for the Christmas buffet. Our server seated us at a booth in the bar next to a foosball table, which has been used almost the entire time we were there. That was very annoying, but the host told us it was the only table available despite there being other open tables. The buffet itself was not very good.
Anastasia and Fabian were fabulous!!!
Anastasiya was very helpful, professional and polite. Great service from her and we will be returning because of her and Angel from the other night. Thank you both
