                    We had a delicious brunch on Sunday. The potatoes have changed from a home fries to a cheesy hash browns. Still very good! My Eggs Benedict was very good and the haddock sandwich was excellent. Fruit was delicious!!

                    This is our first time at this establishment and we were not disappointed. Our reservation was ready when we arrived, so there was no wait. We were greeted immediately as we walked in and escorted to our table. The waitress was extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and very accommodating. The food was five star if not better. Everything from the appetizers to the entrées to the side dishes that were mouthwatering really good. We will definitely be returning.
