                                                            My family of 4 had a reservation and showed up 5 minutes early. The place was moderately crowded, midday. There was a waitress and a bartender for the lower level and the waitress apologized as they were understaffed for that time. We waited 10 minutes to be seated (there was no one ahead of us) and another 15 minutes to have our order taken. Even though we were there for brunch hours and brunch was on the menu, the waitress apologized as they were not serving brunch. The food was alright. The best thing we had was the nachos with guacamole and salsa. I ordered the streak sandwich Au jus and the Au jus was like a mushroom gravy. The flat bread was above average and my 9 year old liked her chicken tacos. I did not see a kid's menu. All in all, it was alright. We probably will not return as there are so many other choices to choose from.
