    Amazing from the second we walked in!! Granted, it was 11am for brunch but everything was WONDERFUL. Casual, relaxed, trendy…not over board. If the AARP set feel super comfortable, they’ve nailed it 😁 The Feta and Tahini appetizer… OMG! You have to get it. First time eating there, I’m in love.

    I was immediately drawn to the Christmas menu and my group agreed it looked great. We were seated at a table for 8 (we were a party of 6) which was great because we promptly ordered tons of food! We ate family style. I prefer this so that I can taste a bit of everything. Most everything was notable! The only negatives were the yams having no flavor and the overabundance of potatoes! We had two servings of mashed and an order of au gratin. It may have been nice to substitute a salad or veggies for all that mashed. Either way, it was a yummy holiday dinner. Loved the cocktails! Thank you!
