    There were not a lot of breakfast items but there was ALOT of delicious food. I also thought that it was pretty pricy per person.

    My experience was great! The food was so good and my favorite part of it all was the amazing service. Our server Julie was very efficient and made sure that we were attended at all times.

    The place was full. Couples, groups, and an energetic party shared the space. Our waitress apologized for the very slow drinks. The food was noticeably better. The waitress explained a new chef made the difference. We'll be back soon.
