Stopped in for brunch with my aunt and uncle and tried a little bit of everything: the Chicken &…read moreWaffles with bacon, a Spinach and Swiss omelette with home fries and an English muffin, and a Chicken & Brie sandwich on a brioche bun with home fries. The Chicken & Waffles were the standout. The chicken was crispy on the outside, juicy inside, and paired perfectly with the sweet syrup and smoky bacon. A great balance of sweet and savory flavors. The Spinach & Swiss omelette was light, fluffy, and packed with flavor. The spinach and melted Swiss worked well together, and the home fries were nicely seasoned with peppers and onions. The English muffin was a simple but welcome addition. The bird & Brie sandwich was another winner. The brioche bun was soft and buttery, while the brie added a creamy richness that elevated the sandwich. The arugula brought a fresh peppery bite that kept everything balanced. Overall, the food was fresh, portions were generous, and everything was cooked well. The home fries were crispy and flavorful across all the plates. Definitely a solid breakfast/brunch spot that I'd visit again.

Shared about the days specials and engaged in fun conversation with other parties at the bar and myself. Enjoyed rose and the shrimp n grits. While waiting for my entree a little cast iron skillet with two biscuits and butter appeared and they were hot and delicious. Perfect appetizer! All the fish is caught local except the mahi so I went with Madison's recommendation of the shrimp n grits and did not disappoint. Then the mousse was so yummy and beautiful presentation.

A little dry and almost tasted like BBQ instead of duck. The lamb shank was fall off the bone tender. Sauce needed a little bit of salt. Otherwise it was delicious. My friend loved her duck dish. The arugula with the vinaigrette made it. The pumpkin cheesecake matched the description. Very creamy but not overly sweet. The vibes there are great. It can get a little loud at times but nothing crazy. Would definitely come back for the next seasonal menu!

The staff is friendly and the place is very lively. It seems to be a little quieter at lunchtime, no waiting for a table at this time. They also have outside seating. We ordered the birria sandwich, think amped up grilled cheese with very tender meat. It comes with the dipping sauce and a side of ultra crispy French fries. Next up is the enchiladas verdes with steak. This dish comes with refried beans and rice. So, so good. Food is not greasy at all. The verde sauce is delicious and not at all spicy. Really tasty. We always want to try dessert, but we were in the middle of our workday, so we passed this time. Their breakfast here is outstanding, go for something authentic, rather than your typical "American " breakfast items. You won't be disappointed with any choice here. We have loved everything so far.

I had a Bloody Mary, well made. Some sodas and beers for all as well. I had the Cobb salad with a blue cheese vinaigrette- good, fresh veggies (great cucumbers). I do wish there was more roasted chicken/protein. Had a deviled egg on it, but flavor was a bit off on that so didn't eat it. Shrimp and grits x4 were good- grits a little thin, but flavor good. Only turn off was the tails being left on. On grits (and pasta) that is a pet peeve for me as you lose some of the shrimp and t makes it difficult to eat. BLT- good, fresh veggies and thick bread. French toast x2 - really good with a great variety of fresh fruit. Service was good.

I expect that if I ask for a change to a menu item, e.g. sausage instead of bacon, and if there is…read morean up-charge then I would expect to hear about it at the time I ordered. Not here, came with bacon and sausage, up-charges for the sausage $1.50/each link on the bill. I am not a server, BUT if I was I would probably ask "do you want bacon and sausage, cause it comes with bacon regardless, and the sausage is an addition charge". Not here, you won't know about the additional charge until the bill comes. Then I asked and the server confirmed, "yes, it only comes with bacon". The story goes on. I found a piece of plastic wrapper stuck to the bacon and pointed that out to the server, who responded "oh!"...and that was the end of it. Not a real concern for them, I guess they eat the plastic when it's on their plate. Anyway, if you like surprises on your bill and on your plate, this is definitely a destination for you.
