The food at this restaurant is delicious! Not your ordinary brunch. The cups and plates are unique and very artistic. The location is a lovely spot to sit outdoors. This was my first visit and I was very impressed.

The food was outstanding. My husband who is a world class chef loved the food especially. Megan, the GM, stated she was getting heaters sooner than later. The doors were closed so if you dress warmly you’ll be fine until they get heaters. It’s a fabulous restaurant.
