   So we've waited a long time before trying Alice B's. And let me tell you it was worth the wait! The restaurant is located in a fairly new high end apartment complex called Living Out, which by the way looks amazing, but anyway we had a 6:15 reservation and sat down. The place was about 3/4 full and the bar was almost full, that's a good sign actually, because everything can be great at a restaurant but if its empty it sort of ruins the experience. The menu is nice cocktails and wine were very reasonable priced. I had a Scrimshaw beer and My husband had a cosmo and our friend had an spritz. The cocktails were good , only issue was the short martini glass isn't very user friendly, sort of heavy but not a huge issue I asked for a different glass and I changed it. For food our serverTara W suggested the biscuits and at first we said no, but then I started seeing them at almost every table , so we ordered them and let me tell you they were great! they come with butter and a honey spread that was delicious, nice had light with a cheese and chive flavor. Entrees, roast chicken was excellent as was the Branzino, which I was told , the best he had ever had and the Yakimo, which is a roasted Japanese sweet potato with tahini and pomegranates all excellent I also had the medjool date apple salad with butter beans and feta which was out of this world, I would order this every time when I came back. All in all service excellent, ambiance excellent and the food amazing! And we will be back!

   The dining room was quite crowded. Slow to get the server. Jalapeño rolls excellent. My Branzino was nice, cooked well, a little bland. The crusty skin was nice, tapenade not so much.

   Appetizers and dinners were excellent but the service was messy and uncoordinated. Big gaps between drinks, apps and meals. Server Karen was helpful and friendly but we could tell she was stressed and apologetic for whatever was going on backstage

   Our primary concern was the significant delay in service. We waited an unusually long time for our orders to be taken and for our drinks to arrive. While we understand that restaurants can have busy periods, the wait times seemed excessive, even accounting for a busy Sunday brunch. Worse, main ingredients to dishes we ordered were nowhere to be found. When we raised our concerns about the delay with our server (we think her name is Daniela), we didn’t feel our issue was adequately addressed. This led us to escalate the matter to the manager on duty. While the manager (Nicole) tried to ameliorate the situation, I think it just further dampened our experience.

   Was anticipating a good leisurely brunch and left disappointed. Two of us barely touched our Bloody Marys as they were rather diluted and had very little taste. The Alice B Breakfast was a couple of fried eggs, tough/overcooked sausages, fried smashed fingerling potatoes that had zero moisture, and underwhelming toast. The Croque Madame Flatbread was boring and hurt my eyes looking for the Mornay sauce. Service was attentive, but the orders were wrong and no attention to detail. I'll pass on going back.

    Over all a really good experience. The bar was really backed up and it took a long time to receive our cocktails which then held up the meal service. Luckily we weren’t in a hurry. The server was very communicative and let us know what was going on. The food was excellent and worth the wait. Cheddar biscuits are to die for and the chips with onion dip were a delicious and fun option. We enjoyed our entrees of branzino and the shepherd’s pie-both very well prepared. Chocolate cake was a nice finish to the meal. Looking forward to coming back.
