    I had the Sunday brunch. The ambiance was very nice and it instantly gave a young, trendy vibe. Our table was in the middle towards the back which was perfect for people watching from the W hotel but not smack dab in the middle to be too distracting. The noise level was a bit on the louder side though. The food was prepared very well and the presentations were nice, too. Portion size was perfect. The 2 eggs with toast and sausage was tasty and a good amount. The drip coffee and lattes were good too. Overall, I recommend this place for brunch!

    Great place for weekend brunch. I prefer to be seated at the front if possible, great for people watching.

    Food and service were good. I would say the portion sizes of appetizers were a bit lacking and the sushi bowl, although delicious, was as also small in portion for the price.
