Sat w/ Jessica, a super friendly, outgoing server who did all the necessary things a good server should do. Checkbacks, suggesting, upselling. Ordered biscuits and gravy w/ scrambled eggs and pancakes. Biscuits advertised as fresh; they were far from it, hard as a rock, bot flaky. Gravy had little flavor as well as sausage, bot appetizing in the least. 3 pancakes w/ room temp butter. 2 eggs that were just cooked and not dry.
Julie had a sausage and cheese omelet that was way overcooked and seemed like it was put in the oven to cook. She took maybe 2 bites. Also had pancakes. Definitely bot worth 37$. Huge failure in food quality!

Good food but way overpriced. $49 pre tip for two people. Most troubling was $8.58 for coffee for two people. I get that costs have gone up but same breakfast at other good breakfast spots would be 10-15% less at least.

The food here is genuinely delicious — fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. You can tell the kitchen takes pride in what they serve, and for that alone, it’s worth a visit.

Unfortunately, the customer service leaves much to be desired. One particular server/writer (not naming names, but easily recognizable- the red head) was noticeably rude and dismissive, which really soured the experience. It’s disappointing when great food is overshadowed by unwelcoming or unprofessional treatment.

If the service matched the quality of the food, this place would easily be a five-star spot. I hope management takes this feedback seriously because the potential is definitely there.
