    Josephine’s is my go to brunch spot. When I need a personal pick me up, brunch with friends or brunch with my finance, Josephine’s is always my top pick. Their food is always top tier and they have the most beautiful people on their team. 10/10 recommended.

    When we first arrived, it was quite crowded and there seemed to be a bit of confusion as to where we should be while the wait staff tried to manage a rather large gathering of folks. After a bit of moving back and forth, we were seated at our table. Once there, the experience was transformative. The food was superb, and each course was well-paced to give us time to savor each beautifully crafted plate. Highly recommend this establishment.
