    Server was inattentive. Booth and wall could use a good wipe-down. Food was fine. Don’t think I would go back. I’m sure there are more decent places in the area for brunch.

    Arrived for our 6:30 reservation and were told our table wouldn’t be ready for 30 minutes. They do not understand the concept of a reservation as compared to a wait list. After much discussion they magically found us seats at the bar as we had a show to get to

    Hi Marie, We are very sorry about your experience at our establishment. It is very unfortunate but RARE that this would happen. The proper steps have been taken to assure this will not happen again. Thank-you for all of your reviews to help make us aware of the situation. We hope one day you will give us another chance.
