    We had brunch. The unique French toast was the best I have ever had. The hollandaise sauce on the eggs benedict was amazing. The view over the river wall is always rewarding.

    As a starter, we had the shrimp and andouille toast, and it was delicious. I had the potato soup and my husband had the Wedge salad— very good! We split the filet and frites + Brussels sprouts… excellent! Also, great wine and cocktails, and our server, Jamie, was top-notch ⭐️!

    Good portions. Steak was prepared a just the right temperature. Bread needs to come out with the salad not afterwards. Brussel sprouts were too burnt.
