    Not prepared for Valentines Day. Way overbooked. We were put in some upstairs overflow area overlooking the liquor store. Not very romantic. Took a while to even set the tables. We left without ordering. Very disappointing.

    The overall experience was great. We went for Valentine’s Day dinner. At first we felt the staff was overwhelmed and could not seat us though we had reserved in advance. We found a table ourselves and got seated. But the service was great after that. The food was delicious and the dessert was awesome!

    The food was ok but the service was very slow. We went for brunch. When it did come out my omelette was cold and toast was dried out. Coffee also came out cold although the server did make a fresh pot for me when I asked.

    Nice place for a friends or family brunch. Very cozy and you're not rushed. Bruch menu and cocktails are great. Ambiance is just active enough where you can have fun and still hear each other talk. Highly recommend.
