    We were there mid afternoon Christmas Day. It wasn’t to crouched and the service was good. Food was great. They have a nice patio dining area and an open air bar that were fairly quiet, but I did notice inside was kind of noisy due to all hard surfaces. Overall very nice experience.

    The Christmas day brunch menu was the standard menu for every day. But the service was exceptional, and the food reliably good. I would return again, whether it’s Christmas day or not.

    Atmosphere was really nice, the workers were all amazing and very attentive. Price is a little bit on the pricey side, but for the amount that you are getting, it is not bad at all. We love this place and will continue to come here!!

    Food was decent but drinks are overpriced and small. Water boys and bussers were fast and great, but good luck trying to flag down your waiter. Definitely make a reservation, did not expect that many people for brunch time on a Monday.

    Everything was great, as usual! The only thing was that the live musicians were way too loud. We had 6 at a table and we couldn’t hear each other speaking. We were having to yell which was unpleasant. Also, the music style was unfortunately kinda odd. Karaoke style covers of 80’s songs. A nice acoustic Spanish guitar would have been much more enjoyable. We were excited to hear they were going to have live music at our brunch, then really wished it would stop after a few very loud and awkward songs. Hate to say this because we really love the restaurant and the food!!
