    This was tea. Great concept. Poor execution. I overheard one server thoroughly describing and explaining everything. our server didn’t do that. It seemed skimpy

    This is the first time we’ve gone to Willie’s for Sunday brunch. The experience was terrific with the food excellent and only surpassed by the service we received from Anthony. He is both professional and personable. He is a real asset to the organization.

    The 3 course menu was excellent with sole as the main for both of us and delicious deserts of plum pudding and crème brûlée. My starter was mushroom soup. Good but not outstanding like the rest of the meal.
