We had breakfast here. It wasn’t busy but service was quite slow. My coffee was good but my husband’s was no longer hot by the time it arrived. The fried cauliflower bites were the tastiest thing we had there, but could do with better plating as the avocado was just buried under the cauliflower. The fries with brisket & eggs (prepared well) was also quite tasty but lacked flavor & seasoning. The biggest letdown was the egg burrito. Very very bland. Prices were quite high, but portions were big. Nice that they helped pay for parking, but some strange administrative fee on the bill. Not sure we’d come back but glad we tried it.

Great but pricy drinks. Good service. Not good food. I ordered chef's choice. Any chef that would choose an egg white omelette doesn't deserve the title of chef imho

Great food and great service. We visited for the first time two weeks ago and my husband ordered the chef special and is still talking about it. Only cons were they were out of champagne for mimosas, but I ordered a different drink and it was fantastic. The front area was pretty chilly with people going in and out during the winter (it was also pretty cool to see the chefs in action at the grill), but I imagine that is out of their control, so nevertheless this place is worth a 5 star rating. Can’t wait to visit again in the summer time.

Delicious food and super chill atmosphere. I came here a couple times on a work trip and my only complaint is that both times it took somewhere near 30-40 minutes to get our food. First time I came was early morning with only 3 other people in there. Second time was more towards brunch/lunch time and it was pretty busy. It felt like an oddly long time to wait both times, the kind where you look around and notice other tables getting food before you despite them coming after. The rest of my team who came here other times, agreed that it was pretty slow service. So I definitely recommend this place if you don’t mind the wait because the food is actually really good! I would go back for the brisket fries in a heartbeat.

Restaurant is cozy and nice. Food and service were good but expensive in my opinion. 2 adults 1 child we paid over $100. Maybe it’s the area we were in. We were just passing through so could be normal. Probably won’t be back because of prices.

Parking: Restaurant will validate your parking ticket.

Delicious food was a bit overpriced, but it qas very good. I was able to try the Maple Cinnamon Crunch Latte which they did make decaf for me, which was really appreciated. For breakfast I ordered the Burken Bagel which was sweet and savory so good.

Saw all the wonderful reviews. Thought "hey let's try this place."

First if you're gonna charge brunch prices please don't serve diner quality food. My breakfast potatoes ranged from burnt or squishy. The breakfast sandwich was okay. Not 18$ worth. Then the coffee, we received our coffee basically at the end of the meal. Mine was Luke warm and left me with a syrupy film. Entirely too sweet.

Service was meh. We werent served by our waitress but the cook( he was friendly and I appreciate that) waitress appeared to take our order and that was pretty much all we saw of her.

Food was meh, service was meh, coffee was meh. With everything being so meh the prices are disrespectful to your wallet your pallet and your time

The food is disrespectfully delicious. I got the chefs choice breakfast and he went OFF on my meal. The blueberry lavender mimosa was good, definitely recommend the flight to try some of the others but I highly recommend the chef choice cause that chef knows what their doin

This was an excellent brunch. It was our first time here and we will surely return. The breakfast shot and the mimosa flights were excellent. The food was also delicious and the service was prompt and friendly. Definitely make a reservation.

Update: We returned and again had great food. We tried the chef's choice and they did a great job. We had a 10:30 reservation and while the website does say that reservations are for 1 hour and 15 minutes, it was disappointing to be told at 11:35 that they would need the table soon. We spent about $150 on brunch, and I'll definitely remember the time limit when considering a brunch location in the future.

Loved this place. I'm not from US so it might be the normal experience but the food was yummy, large and the coffee was great.

Breakfast sandwich was amazing and the lavender latte was delish. Get the sweet potato fries!

Food is picture worthy but a bit bland, needs more seasoning as both dishes lacked flavor. Service was mediocre and that was sitting downstairs. Was worth checking out once but not worth it again.

I almost never post but wanted to warn people to check there receipts. There was an additional " convenience " charge that is for credit cards and I have no problem with that. What bothers me is that when I paid with cash and left a good tip I was never told that I only know that because my wife asked after we paid what the charge was. Pretty sure the employees are stealing from customers 7 percent per check
