    We had a lunch with a party of 8. The service was flawless- helpful, quick, efficient, but not hovering. Our orders arrived in about 10 min, and everything was as ordered. The food was very good, and the portions were filling. The view from Canoe is wonderful- overlooking some gardens on the bank of the Chattahoochee. Canoe has never disappointed me, and this meal didn't either.

    The cocktails, especially the sage alchemy and cherry blossom, were delicious. The Oscar eggs Benedict with crab meat had a perfectly poached egg and a delicate hollandaise sauce. The scrambled eggs with the pancake palooza were flavorful, and the pancakes were some of the best I have ever had. We love oyster happy hour here, but brunch comes in a close second. The jazz duo played a mix of festive and classic songs. We will definitely be back for Jazz Brunch again!
