    I would have liked to give a better review, but i can honestly say the service was not good, I would not recommend this place to anyone, that enjoys good and friendly and timely service , I came with my wife, to have a date night to enjoy our evening. The waitress service was cold, and she didn’t really make us feel welcome, like outcasts, and when my wife asked if they had any purée to make her drink sweeter, she said they didn’t have anything like that, so I went to ask a waitress at the bar if they had any purée , they said they did, and that they would bring some over to our table. We waited a while and it seemed like the waitress forgot to bring the purée. She eventually brought it to us and said she forgot, but my wife was pretty much finished with her drink. The food took about 35 40 minutes, and if it was good I would of been okay with it, but more disappointment, it was Luke warm, and had no taste, expensive, but I guess we paid for the view.

    The scene is great - live music and phenomenal view. The hosts are kids and probably the worst part of the experience. Ive dined here several times and it’s usually a problem We had a reservation for a table for four. One couple showed up 10 minutes early, but the host would not seat them even though the restaurant was less than half full. A minor annoyance in an overall great evening.

    We came to Branch & Bird for their Mother’s Day buffet brunch and were disappointed. Most of the food was cold — the bread, rolls, French toast, and waffles all lacked warmth and freshness. Even the syrup came in little plastic hotel-style packets, which felt cheap for a special occasion. The bright spots were the bacon, fresh fruit, and a well-made omelet. But overall, the experience didn’t justify the price, especially for a holiday brunch. Next time, we’ll stick with Pinstripes.

    The bread and ceviche appetizers were outstanding, the redfish with the risotto had very nice flavor. The music was on point! The vibe was great out on the patio. The service was disappointing and slow.
