Everything tasted great. The cocktails are on point. Service was very polite and respectful. I'm looking forward to coming back soon.”

“So happy we ate here today for our Christmas brunch! Quick service, helpful if you have a toddler. They had crayons and a cute city pic to color. All our dishes were excellent. I got the croissant sandwich with breakfast potatoes- potatoes were very very good!! My son got the pancake, I was expecting something small but it was a generous portion. My MIL had some granola/yogurt. All very very good, very nice staff, beautiful space.”
“The food is amazing, the atmosphere is beautiful, and the service is awesome! There was no wait, and we got our food and drinks in a timely manor. My boyfriend and I have come here for happy hour twice. The fries are hand cut and fresh, and the burger is so big and juicy we ordered one and split it! The drinks are also so delicious!! I highly highly recommend coming here! Definitely come during happy hour for that amazing happy hour menu!”
