My son took his 85-year-old mother (me) out for new year's day brunch. Enjoyable ambience, great service. The buffet was interesting, but not too fresh, as we came late: B+. Courtney, who waited on us, as well as being very kind and efficient, was lovely, and had a delightful sense of humor: A+. We would certainly go there again.

Cozy space, delicious food, excellent service. We dined a la carte, shared quite a few dishes, and everything was delightful. Not enough characters allowed in this review to mention each and do them justice. Looking forward to trying the chef’s counter next time!

Super value for the money. Plenty of food, you won't leave hungry, a well rounded tea list, helpful and friendly staff. Wonderful holiday themed sweets. (Wish scones were full sized, however). All in all, can't wait to go back!
