Double brunch date with friends. Ambience is perfect. Food was great as usual. Our server Elizabeth D was top notch. Very personable, patient, and attentive. That's why it's hard to get a table, everything is just right.

Only disappointment is the flourless chocolate cake / tort. Experience has never been a "moist" cake. If it's a gluten free option, please have a regular as a non-gluten choice. Also a Tiramisu would be a great addition to the dessert menu!
