    The service was subpar, and the food was lukewarm. The ultimate sandwich had barely any steak. My steak was cooked well done not medium well. The unlimited drinks can be unlimited if your server ever comes and checks up on you. All in all it was a 0/10 and would never recommend. And if you’re going based off what you see on TikTok the portions are 2x less than what you actually receive.

    The atmosphere was very relaxed with great service. The menu has simple but delicious choices. You can’t go wrong with any of the options. It was a wonderful experience.

    It’s always a great experience when dining at medium rare. Vanessa in particular has always made us feel welcomed and shows exceptional service.

    Had a lovely Mother's Day brunch on the patio! The food was great, the service was fast (on a holiday) and the patio was relaxing!

    We went there for Mothers day and had high expectations, but unfortunately those expectations weren't met. Not only was our waitress new and very confused, I don't think she had ever worked as a waitress before. Since we were a very early reservations in an almost empty restaurant, you would have thought they would have at least paired her up with someone for a bit to get her familiar. Instead, we ended up getting a sub par performance. She didn't know the menu at all, even though there are only 5 things on the menu, she didn't fill our water, she didn't take our menus after taking our order, and was generally not attentive. As for the food, I will say the French Toast was way above expectations. It was huge, but light and fluffy goodness. The yoghurt parfait was topped with a berry sauce and the most generic Walmart granola sprinkled on top. Not what I would expect for an nicer establishment. Most disappointing was the steak frites, while the fries themselves were good, the gravy that came on top of the steak was super salty. The French toast is the only thing that kept this rating as high as it is, and might be worth risking it to have it again, but that is doubtful.

    We went on Mother’s Day weekend and the service was a let down compared to the rest of the experience. We had to go find someone to get the check after being there for 2 hours. Our waitress came back 10 min after we went to find another person to pay and asked if she could get us the check. She was very confused when we said we had paid out through someone else.
