We (my family and friends and I) all love this restaurant...! The Sugar Bar--AKA Ashford & Simpson's Sugar Bar Restaurant always gets from us 5 stars!!! The food is always excellent and the service especially pleasant and friendly (even when the restaurant gets crowded). We are delighted by their SUNDAY BRUNCH--always a deal, and terrific food! My catfish (blackened or fried) is EXCELLENT with grits; my companions at breakfast usually have the waffles (or pancakes) and eggs, and bacon/sausage. At Brunch the $25 deal includes an alcoholic beverage (such as a Mimosa) or--for me, a teetotaler-an OJ. ONE drawback--no toast comes with Brunch but at least THIS time each of us got our own slice of sweet and delicious cornbread! Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!, as Johnny Mathis used to sing. Same goes for the oddly named "Sugar Bar." All-around WONDERFUL dining experience on 72nd Street--midtown. Mickey Michaels
