    Buffet is good, but unfortunately ran out of certain dishes. Busboy was more accommodating than servers. Fresh fruits were not good but compote berry was. Eggs Benedict and potatoes were excellent. Waffles were too dense to enjoy unlike the last time I was here it was beautifully light and fluffy. Coffee is outstanding.

    came here for brunch on a saturday with a reservation. the hostess and server were very nice and skilled. the steak and eggs were really good. biscuits and aguachile were good as well. i LOVE oysters, but i felt like maybe the carrot mignonette overpowered the oyster flavor a bit but that could just be personal preference. great ambiance. good people. good food. and i loved the garden and the chickens. this is a lovely place in a lovely area of LA. i would definitely come back!
