I tried Starving Artist for brunch and really enjoyed it! The waffle was crispy and fluffy, and the fried chicken was juicy with a nice seasoning. The combo of sweet and savory worked perfectly together. The portion was just right enough to leave me full but not overly heavy. It’s a great comfort food option if you’re craving something satisfying for brunch. Definitely would come here again!

This is my family's favorite breakfast/brunch spot. Everything I've tried on the menu is fantastic. Whether you like sweet or savory or both, Starving Artist has what you need. They also have the best service, they are always so happy and friendly. Bring this place your business, you deserve the treat and they deserve the money.

I first encountered Starving Artist, several months ago while looking for something to eat. I was impressed by the food and friendly service, and said to myself that I would return again when I was in the area. Well! Today, was that day! The staff today were extremely accommodating and supported my unique order I'm allergic to bananas - of a scrumptious dessert waffle -along with a delicious cup of coffee. Thanks SA!
