    Delicious from start to finish. Smoked salmon and blinis, avocado toast with dark bread and poached egg, (used the remaining smoked salmon on top of that), followed by profiteroles and double espressos. Wish they had dessert crepes on the menu. It was pretty loud but in fairness there was a wedding shower happening at the next table with at least a dozen awkward chittering college(?) girls drinking a little too much. But it was fun and a real surprise to have such a delicious brunch. A definite must!

    First time dining there. It was a bit crowded and almost overcrowded, but that was to be expected given the day. Ambiance was sexy and the live music was a nice added bonus although by the time I was sat the live music was over. I enjoyed the atmosphere and the ambiance of the environment. The food was amazing and wish I had left room for dessert but, after the appetizers and drinks I was almost done before I started. The place was really nice but could tell the staff and guests both were a bit taken a back at how large the crowd was even later into the evening. My server Erin was amazing. Attentive, personable, and just a pleasure to have her as a server. Erin made sure I was well taken care of and that I had a memorable experience. I can tell she is passionate about her station and even told me she wanted me to come back when it was less busy to gain a better idea of what the service and experience overall is really like and I appreciated that. Erin was great and I truly appreciate her taking care of every need and question that came her way. I would definitely go back and highly recommend if you haven’t been to try it out.
