    Everything really good, just that I ordered an avocado toast and it came with too much kale, it looked like a farm, the bread was soggy

    The food was great and the ambiance of the restaurant is amazing but the kitchen got pretty backed up and they didn’t bring out our appetizer

    Wonderful brunch and a fun place to dine. We opted for the outdoor patio area and it was great! Recommend making reservations as it is a booked-out place. Great service and staff. Food was excellent as well.
