Lovely place for brunch! The interior was very nicely decorated and there were great options to choose from for food. I got the chicken and waffles which was very tasty. It was light and crispy on the outside while juicy on the inside, would love to come back and try more dishes.

I sat outside and got baked in the sun. I tried to wave down the waiter to open the umbrella but couldn't get one. Then the bees came and touched my food. The warm lamb salad wasn't great. The croutons were stale, the lamb was dry and the eggs were somehow so tasteless. The side of hash browns I got were the best part of the meal (two crunchy and delicious circles).

New upscale American food, came for brunch and had the chicken and waffles (love the cheddar waffles) and the scrambled eggs with spinach, mushroom, and goat cheese. We sat at the bar and service was friendly and fast! Will definitely come back!

Came here for restaurant week. The kale salad was delicious, crispy and fresh and not too oily or salty. The trout salad was good too though it was a bit on the saltier side since it was cured.
The entrees were ok. I ordered lasagna, it was a bit salty. I didn't taste any eggplants, mostly just squash. The fried chicken was good but nothing out of the ordinary. The Belgium waffle wasn't crispy.
The deserts were good though. The pecan Sunday was delicious, although a bit too sweet. The cheesecake was delicious.

First time eating here with my husband and in-laws and I am glad that I found it. Everything that we ordered tasted amazing. My husband bragged about the Pecan Pie French Toast, it is a must try! The service was welcoming, friendly and quick. I will highly recommend this restaurant and can’t wait to visit again!!

Buttermilk Channel has for years been one of my favorite restaurants, and I can't say enough about how wonderful the food, service, and ambience is. What I wanted to write about here, though, is how they went above and beyond for a special occasion.
My wife and I reached out to Buttermilk to see if there was any way we could host our rehearsal dinner there the night before our wedding. Doug, the owner, was beyond fantastic from the start. He was responsive, accommodating, enthusiastic, and professional. He put together an incredible night for us with a cocktail hour, sit-down dinner, and welcome drinks for the entire wedding. At no point in the months of planning did we ever feel in the dark - he was perfectly communicative. The menu had our favorite dishes - all of which were fantastically done. The service was, as always, remarkably warm. Doug was as gracious a host as you could ever want.
It was so special for the two of us to have this dinner at somewhere that meant a lot to us, as opposed to feeling like we rented out a random place. Thanks to Doug and his team, we really felt taken care of and as if everyone working that evening was celebrating us, too. The best vote on this, of course, is that of our friends and family, who were universally amazed at the evening.
We'll keep coming to Buttermilk for a very long time.

Used to be a go to for brunch! Brioche French Toast used to be good, now it’s inconsistent and rock hard even the table next to us didn’t finish it. AND got served sour pork twice so no thanks. Standard has dropped.

Yummy fried chicken burger with fries. No need to get the waffles or biscuits.

The brunch is finger-licking good. The must try is the French toast, it’s a whole experience. But the short-rib hash also gives it a run for its money. Even the salad was really yummy and fresh. It can get a little busy though, so be ready for that.

We love this place for brunch, but when we tried it for dinner I was served the worst fried chicken I’ve ever had. It was bland, overcooked, and the crust was so hard I couldn’t bite into it. The salad and deviled eggs were out of this world, however :)

If you can get a reservation, I highly recommend Buttermilk Channel for brunch. The menu is so enticing that it made it hard to choose, so we opted for a little bit of everything. Every dish we tried was fantastic, and the service was excellent, adding to the overall enjoyable experience.
It's pretty noisy in here, but I chalk that up to it being a popular spot where folks are in the moment, enjoying great conversation and delicious food. Despite the noise, the lively atmosphere adds to the charm of the place.
If there's one thing you must try, it's a stack of their pancakes—absolutely divine. Whether you're with a large group or just a few friends, Buttermilk Channel is a great choice for a memorable brunch. Highly recommend!
