Restaurant is very clean and presentable, nice bright colors for a beautiful ambiance. Appetizers (volcano rock shrimp, salmon crudo, and the feta dip) were all delicious, salmon melted in your mouth, and came out in perfectly timely manner. Main brunch entrees were also delicious, between the three we ordered (avocado toast, tex mex wrap, and French toast) the avocado toast was the group favorite although all were delicious, actually avocado mash and slices as opposed to just some cuts with egg like most places do. We ordered both soups, daily lobster bisque and the French onion and both were divine. Definitely would recommend for a day out in Nash.

We had a great time bowling and then had lunch. The food was great! Even better was our server, Ari. He was very attentive and helpful with accommodating our children. One of the best servers we have ever had.
