Overall, we had a great experience. The location is beautiful and has a really nice atmosphere, making it a perfect spot for brunch with friends or family. The food was good, and the menu had plenty of great options. Our waitress, Ranisha, was kind, attentive, and made sure we were taken care of after we had been sitting for a few minutes waiting to place our order. Her friendly service definitely made our visit more enjoyable. There were just a couple of issues with my order. I specifically requested no bananas or fruit on my French toast, but it was served with strawberries on top. I was also told that the sausage would be cut up and mixed into my potato bowl, but instead I received whole sausage patties on the side. Neither issue ruined the meal, but getting the order as requested would have made the experience even better. Overall, it’s a beautiful brunch spot with good food, great service from Ranisha, and an inviting atmosphere. I’d definitely give it another try and would recommend it to anyone looking for a nice place to enjoy brunch.
My girlfriend and I had ultimate grits onion rings,chicken pasta,and the honey chicken biscuit. The food amazing 👏🏾 but everything thing else not so good. It took a minute for someone to take our order very nice lady. But some kind of way they kept bringing the wrong order to our table. It was a very long wait for the food to come out once we got it. I would say still check them out. Hopefully things are running smoothly.
The food was good! It got very busy but the food was good! We got the breakfast poboy and added bell pepper and onion and it was huge it was the best thing we got. The chicken and waffles were really good the waffle was great! The portions were big and we all left super full! We got the crab cake Benedict and it was okay. We also got the hot honey chicken biscuit and it was mid so don’t get that. If you like sweet tea DONT get the sweet tea it wasn’t sweet. The poboy was really good and I would go back just for that!
Lo was our waitress and she gave us some true southern hospitality! We ordered the crab cake eggs Benedict and it was very delicious. The biscuit base was buttery and the crab was real not imitation meat. If your egg is over cooked, no worries, ask to get it replaced without hesitation. We will definitely return. Chayla was our coffee barista and she is fabulous anything you need she’s got it.
Wow. Miss Lo and Miss Sharron are incredible! Not to mention the food! Wow! This restaurant and staff are truly amazing. Came for Mardi Gras and left with some amazing impressions. They started our morning and trip off to a great start ! Thank you for the Mardi Gras beads! What a sweet surprise ❤️
