   Five stars all around. We were in from out of town and made a reservation since we weren't sure how busy they would be for a Sunday brunch service. They had plenty of free tables for small and large parties. It was busy but the restaurant is rather large. Our server, Hannah, was absolutely delightful. She was very kind, patient and funny. The food was delicious. We all shared a few dishes. The waffles were so sweet and fluffy and the avocado toast was the best avocado toast I've ever had. I highly recommend ordering it with a poached egg. In the "occasion" section of the reservation I had noted that we were celebrating a birthday and they surprised us by bringing out their cannoli dip which was SO delicious. We will definitely be making this a regular brunch spot for future visits!

   Dinner with friends at 6pm on a Saturday in the covered patio area. Service was OK but one salad arrived without dressing. Food generally was good, but the noise level went up and up until it was nearly impossible to talk or hear. The venue would be helped by the installation of some soft materials, maybe hung from the ceiling. Inside areas are probably even louder.

   I’ve been here once before and really liked it- today was a different story. Service was just so so, 3 different waitresses! Slow to get my drink. Food was just ok. Pretzels were large but lacked taste and the cheese was yucky. We split a quesadilla which I didn’t care for.

   There were four of us for dinner this evening. Only one person had a good meal. The hamburger. The chicken parmigiana sandwich was overcooked. The restaurant even comped it as it was not good. The two tacos were so so. The shells were somewhat stale. The chicken taco was simply grilled chicken and shredded lettuce. There were two sauces you could add yourself. Was disappointed as we were there with out of town guests. The service was good.

   We were able to get a group of 6 in for Sunday lunch which would be the main reason we chose to eat here.

   Had a big group and they did pretty well with service. Food was good. A few spicy things. Luckily we like that.

    It was our first time here and it was excellent! We can’t wait to go back and try other items on the menu. Huge portion sizes too!
