    My sisters and I went to Hearsay on The Waterway for brunch, and the food was amazing! We each ordered something different and ended up sharing bites off each other’s plates. We tried the Crème Brûlée French Toast, Short Rib Hash, Brunch Steak & Eggs, a side of grits, and a pineapple mimosa. Everything was so good! Our waitress was super attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. I’m definitely planning to come back and try their dinner menu next time!

    Wow! What an amazing evening. From our warm greeting to the happy birthday sign and rose petal covered table, to a decadent dessert with French press coffee, this experience was outstanding. Our server and all of her associates made my wife (birthday girl) feel like a million. Everyone was so attentive and genuinely nice. Our meal was perfectly prepared. Dishes were visually pleasing and tasted wonderful. Lobster toast, beet salad, and sashimi pizza all scored high on our palate taste list. The fried chicken might very well have been the best I've ever had in my life. Bread pudding for dessert was beautifully crafted and delicious. While you will pay a high bill for this experience, know that the value is there. You will be wined and dined expertly without a miss on attention to detail. Bravo and thank you, Tris team.
