    We arrived at the restaurant & not many people were there. Service started out great. Appetizers were wonderful. We were enjoying ourselves. The place started to fill up. We noticed that several people around us were receiving their meals, but they arrived well after us. After an hour, my husband asked why we haven’t received our meals? We had an event to attend nearby soon. Finally received our meals after 1 1/2 hours. We were unable to finish them (only a few bites were eaten) since we had to go. The manager apologized & took off the price of one appetizer. She should have comped the meals since didn’t have the chance to enjoy them. Unfortunately, we will not return due to poor service, but the biscuits were wonderful.

    I went for brunch with a friend. I had the Southern Eggs Benedict. Loved the flavor and creativity with the Creole Hollandaise sauce. My friend had the Vegetarian Benedict and she loved the freshness with the avocado

    Nice location very friendly service. It took a very long time to get anything. Wine took 20 minutes. Apps seemed ok. Dessert took a while to order and a long while to arrive. The dessert overall was disappointing. Entrees were very creative and visually appealing. Ok ambiance because it wasn’t super clean. I am glad we went but probably won’t visit again due to slow service.
