I went with a close friend. I hadn't been there since COVID. I found it still quiet and intimate, with an excellent atmosphere, great food, and staff that seemed grateful that we chose them.

Right after church or timing was just off, c trying to get the family together. We found yolk just as it was closing and they welcomed us. Didn't have to. Waitress was friendly. The menu was interesting and we had a great breakfast. Clean, unassuming, and want to work hardb to win over hearts.
April 2025
Went to Sunday brunch with a friend, there was no wait at 11:30am. The waitress was great, she checked in on us regularly and was very informative by letting us know all drinks are refillable except the orange juice which came in the same size glass as the water glass which was small. I thought that was very helpful information to know ahead of time.
