    I had an excellent experience at this brunch spot on my first visit to Atlanta after moving from San Francisco. From the moment we arrived, the valet service made parking effortless, and the welcoming host set a warm tone for the entire visit. The entrance itself is stunning, with a great atmosphere that makes you excited for the meal ahead. Our server was incredibly vibrant and friendly, adding to the overall positive vibe of the restaurant. As for the food, everything we tried was delicious. We had the frittata, pimento cheese, salmon, chicken sausage, and collard greens—each dish was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. The cocktails were also top-notch, complementing the meal wonderfully. It was a great start to our Atlanta brunch adventures, and I’m already looking forward to coming back. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food and a fantastic overall experience!

    A yummy dining experience! The food offers a perfect blend of flavors that truly satisfies. The ambiance is warm and inviting, making it an ideal spot for a relaxing meal with friends. The music adds to the overall vibe, with an uplifting tempo that enhance the atmosphere without being overwhelming. The sweet potato cornbread wasn’t a hit, and should be taken off the menu (in my opinion).
