It's just very pricey. Eggs benedict was great and came out quick

Delicious food, especially the brie, bacon and onion jam eggs Benny. Reasonably efficient service though drinks took a bit longer and atmosphere is relaxed.

Nice brunch spot where you can grab coffee to go on you're way out. The food tasted great and the service was attentive without being overbearing. The food was plated more to photograph than eat (at least the smoked salmon foccaccia) which felt unnecessary. It would be 5 stars overall if the patio furniture had matched the price point and service.

The restaurant was about 1/2 full, maybe a bit less but we had to wait 10+ minutes to be seated. Once seated, another 10 or more minutes for our server to take our order. Maybe 15 or 20 minutes for the food (eggs Bennys for all).

One water glass has a dead fruit fly but it took several minutes to flag down the server to replace it. We had to get our own utensils because the server didn't bring them with the menus or with food. The salt and pepper shakers were literally the same as what you'd get with a room service meal at a hotel... tiny. While that wouldn't be an issue generally, the salt shaker we filled with course salt which was too large for the tiny holes. When I went to the bar for a replacement, the help staff said they'd bring another to the table but I watched as they looked but couldn't find any replacement, so then promptly abandoned the effort. I never got a salt shaker replacement.

Having fully exhausted our patience, we had to finnaly ask for the check, not once, but twice.

To say we'd never return is an understatement.

With all that said, the food itself was fine and the restaurant was clean and bright.

If you are an Instagram influencer, maybe this place is for you. If you just want eggs Bennys, in
a reasonable amount of time, maybe keep moving.

We were looking for a spot with a dog-friendly patio for brunch, and we’re so glad we picked this place! The food and coffee were both great — I just wish the portions were a bit bigger.

I was with my boyfriend Saturday afternoon driving on his motorcycle when two of this restaurants huge patio umbrellas came flying out into the street almost hitting me and my boyfriend, thankfully he was able to stop in time before it hit us but that could have ended badly if I he was not able to, and thankfully there was no cars in front or behind us, we both got off the bike and got the umbrellas out the street and brought them to the employees but there was no thank you or I’m sorry that happened that you almost got into a motorcycle accident because of their error, those umbrellas could have caused some serious harm to myself and my boyfriend, the least they could of done was say thank you for bringing their umbrella back even though it almost caused some serious harm.
