    Food was amazing. So fresh and delicious.. We ordered of the a la carte menu for brunch. There was a buffet and it looks amazing, but we were glad we went with the a la carte menu. The food was fresh and the servings were just enough! The biscuits and beignet were to die for soooo good. Our server informed us that everything there was farmed locally and they even made their own syrup which was delicious.

    I usually order the delicious crab quiche and did so again. It comes with greens and is just the perfect amount of food for me. My beverage was a cider. My husband had pork tenderloin and was very happy with his choice. He chose a hoppy IPA for his beverage. We splurged on calories and split a yummy dessert. The service was excellent even though Gertrude’s was very crowded.
