    Had brunch with friends. The restaurant has a nice ambiance..soft lighting, exposed brick, wood floors. The service was excellent as was the foid. I had the smoke salmon avocado toast which was delicious. My friends had veggie omelette, crabmeat hash, prosciutto benedict and coco pancakes. Everyone enjoyed their meal. The cocktails were great too. I highly recommend Estella.
