We had a great time with an amazing view. Perfect day. The food was fantastic, although I think you’re a little proud. It’s just eggs Benedict. I appreciated the passion of the young waiter, but him telling me what his “favorite” cheese, on the charcuterie platter isn’t necessary. I’d imagine most people who are coming to a place like this have much more culinary experience than the assumingely slick young waiter recommending the most expensive things on the menu. maybe I’m wrong and I underestimate the “general public”, but everything was just, fine, the ambience was fantastic. Come for the view, the food is , fine.

We had an excellent dinner with the petit filet and spinach, sprouts, and followed with the apple crumb dessert. Service was top notch and the place has a great feel and it's easy to talk even though it's crowded and busy.
