Our second visit... did not disappoint.
So far, everything we tried has been amazing.
This time we brought something home from the bakery after our lunch and that cake was simply amazing.

Excellent excellent place for Breakfast and a weekend brunch. The menu has many unique offerings and service is quick. The Sunday hostess always goes the extra mile to make sure we are Taken care of And most of the servers are prompt and courteous.It is always very busy but they get you in Quickly. If you’re in a hurry, you can sit at the bar. The specials menu never disappoints. Love the spanakopita Omelette with a hint of dil. The Florentine omelette is to die for with the herbed cream cheese. The attached bakery has many unique Offerings and their lunch menu is quite good too.

I am a baker and they have to offer the best cake I have had in my life. The strawberry white chocolate layer cake is a must try. I get it every year for my birthday.

We got a carry out cake for our daughter's birthday. White chocolate strawberry shortcake. It was the most loved cake we've ever served. Every single person (sweet tooth or not) loved it. Thanks Ellen!

Excellent service and suggestions on food. Portions are great, and everything coming out of the kitchen looked amazing.
I had the Maurice Salad, my son had the beef salad and my daughter in law ordered the tuscan chicken sandwich. We shared the truffle fries for the table. I have to say the food was delicious. If im back in Michigan I would definitely visit again.

Top notch! You will not get better service anywhere. The staff is excellent. You are treated like royalty the second you walk in. This was my first time in and I will be sure to come more regularly.
The food was great. Portions were big. You won't leave hungry.
