    We ordered from the brunch menu and the regular menu. Their prices are fair for the amount of food received and in line with other brunch locations. The noise level was high which made it difficult to have conversations at the table. However, their music selection can appeal to a large audience.

    Hands down one of the best restaurants/experiences we have had. Went with a group of four and I highly recommend you order several plates to share since everything was just SO good and worth trying. The drinks were also well done with a beautiful presentation. The whole atmosphere/vibe of this place is perfect. Bella was our server who knew the menu inside and out, we counted on her to steer us in the right direction and she succeeded for sure! As the restaurant got a bit more crowded she still didn’t miss a beat and continuously checked in on us. Will definitely be back!!
