    Sat, ordered drinks, server came back 25 minutes later after we asked another server to find her. Food arrived 45 minutes later with no explanation. Drinks refilled when food came (so we were sitting outside in 80 degree heat for 70 minutes with no water/soda/iced tea and no one noticed even though lots of other staff were around). Food was good but so late. Location is nice but service and food delivery unacceptable.

    The menu is unique and the food is delicious. The ambience is beautiful,quiet and refreshing. The service is second to none. The cinnamon rolls are “out of this world”. It is the very best brunch I have ever experienced. Very highly recommended…
