I am still thinking about this food. It was so good, flavorful and fresh. We cleared those plates. We were full, but not sluggish at all..just completely satisfied. This is an intimate and cozy space, great to sit and talk without the noise of a loud space. Music was played, but not obnoxious and there is a tv. Service was great, food was tasty, no complaints at all! Quick heads up, this is a cash only spot, but so worth it. Will definitely be back! read more

I scoured the internet and my old photos trying to find this restaurant again. It had been about a year since our first visit, so it took some digging but we eventually found Flamingobaby Kitchen and off we went! For the table, we ordered the oxtail stew, fried chicken, yams, collard greens, and mac & cheese. I also had a Peach Bellini for a little bubbly. Everything was exactly as I remembered -perfectly cooked and well seasoned, large portions with more than enough to take home. The chef stopped by our table which was a nice touch. Service overall was great. They also make great use of such a small space. It is indeed well worth the visit. Side note, we ordered the same exact items off the menu as we did a year ago...only one thing was missing which was the biscuits with the flavored butter jam. We were told the biscuits were replaced with cornbread. I didn't order the cornbread this time around but would like to see the biscuits return at some point. read more

This tiny restaurant has family home dining room / living room feel. There is even space to sit at the bar. This restaurant doesn't suit you unless your whole party is there. I was the first one to arrive for Sunday brunch. It opened at 10am. My brunch date was running late. The staff was kind enough to let me sit at the bar until she arrived. The menu has so many wonderful options. It was a little hard to decide, but I decided to get the blueberry French toast and a cocktail. I really enjoyed their hospitality and one more thing they don't do substitutions but there's so many options. It's just gonna be fine with whatever you pick their food is delicious. read more

So I came here after doing some research for brunch spots to dine at for my birthday and I decided to go with this one. Love that the chef is an African American female who was very pleasant. Upon coming in I noticed it's a very small space but it's cozy once inside and great music selection of classic reggae hits. They do have a tv which was playing I believe coming to America loved that. There was a 20 minute wait due the kitchen only having one chef & limited servers but we were seated within the 20 mins bracket. Our server was pleasant for the most part, started out a bit shaky but ended rather well. Loved the brick walls inside & artwork Food: 4/5 I ordered the French toast with a side I scramble eggs and turkey bacon. The French toast was delicious, turkey bacon was great and so were the eggs. My family had fried chicken with some kinda sauce which they liked said it could have been a bit better the collard greens were good and we also ordered jerk shrimp and grits. (Which were cornmeal grits) not bad but very different than the traditional grits I was use to. There is a wide variety of food options which I found to be great. The pricing was a bit up there for sides, weren't a lot of combos with all side they had so it added up quickly. Service: 3/5 service wasn't bad but could be better our waitress was attentive but started out a bit shakey only reason I deducted 2 stars. She was helpful and proved me and my party with shots on the house due to it being my birthday which we were highly appreciative of. Ambiance: 3/5 Artwork and brick walls were nice. read more

I went to FlamingoBABY sometime this summer and I will say the food is so good. My only concern was the wait for a table as it is a small space. Luckily, we were sat against the wall so we weren't on top of other patrons, but it can be crowded if you plan on having a party of 4+. I'm not sure if they take reservations, but even when they opened, there was a huge line and they had a queue where you gave them your name and number. Hoping the business can expand because they definitely can do great things with a bigger space. read more

My best friend and I had brunch here on Sunday, and everything was amazing! The food was delicious and full of flavor, the service was great, and the music added to the vibe. I ordered the catfish strips with collard greens and mac & cheese on the side. The collard greens were a little spicy but extremely tasty, and the catfish was seasoned and fried to perfection. My best friend had eggs over hard with turkey bacon, potatoes, and toast. I also tried a tropical mimosa, which was so good! I really love that the menu is so large--there are so many options, and I can't wait to come back and try more dishes. Highly recommend! read more

Flamingobaby kitchen and I had beef after I waited so long for a table for brunch that I eventually left but we are all good now. Lol the food is worth the wait and I thought it might be which is why I spin the block for a calm birthday brunch with a friend midweek. Let's start with the chicken and waffles. The waffles crispy exterior surrounded a soft chewy interior. Savory and not too sweet, perfect temp, and sprinkled with just enough powdered sugar. The Chicken: hot in temp, not too breaded, a preference for some, and tender inside. Crispy coat. Not overly seasoned but definitely not dry or lacking in salt. Mac and cheese: star of the show. Cooked to order. Came out steamy with crispy cheese blanketing even more cheesy noodles. Kept it simple with no overpowering flavors but very respectable Mac and cheese. My friends tone switched from Decent to very good several bites into the mac and cheese they supposedly weren't interested in lol. A lil high in sodium but I don't know that one can find solid Mac and cheese without that sodium content. Corn bread: Patrons all nodded their heads in unison about how good the cornbread was. Appreciated that it didn't taste like cake or just dull bread. Warm, crunchy/crumby. Falls apart a little but the taste was very much intact. If you're not up for a potentially long wait, come early in the weekdays. Service was great, and attended to right away. read more

03/09/2025: Dined No reservations basically first come first served. It is small cozy inside i would say most accommodation about 20. There a a few seating outside. Depending upon arrival there is a wait but trust me it's worth it. The food, the vibes, the service top notch. Appetizers: Loved them all Ackee Plantain Codfish Fritters Catfish Strips Mains: Boneless chicken roti: well seasoned and flavorful. Being boneless I enjoyed even more. Ackee & Saltfish: equally yummy my dining partner loved it and enjoyed every morsel. Crispy Shrimp and Grits: I didn't partake but my other diner enjoyed. Drinks: Frozen Rum Punch: OMG soooo good and strong. I had to take it easy with the sips. Other non alcoholic drinks others consumed also tasty. Music played will have you dancing in your seats. I have tried to return several times but the wait was too long and we were hungry. Majority of the time wait was 45mins and up. All in all great place to dine just don't go too hungry in case you need to wait. read more

This place is so warm and welcoming. Very intimate setting and staff is so kind. I would definitely come here early right as the open because they are always packed and busy. There's probably about 20 seats inside and also an outdoor patio. I came here with my one year old daughter and they were so accommodating the entire time. I ordered the fried chicken and waffles, potato salad, and collard greens. Ordered too much food but it was all so well seasoned and flavorful and washed it down with a Sorrel. All around all the food is so delicious and it's a really great southern / Caribbean spot. read more

This place was great for brunch!! the place is small and cozy but i did not feel cramped. They do not accept reservations, so we came around12noon and it was crowded. You put your name on the list and they will give you a call when the table is ready. We just walked around and was call back in like 30mins. The hostess and wait staff was excellent our order was taken in a timely manner and the food came shortly after. I ordered the Jerk Shrimp & Grits and shared the French toast. The table was quite and I did the food dance while I was eating. the food was cooked to perfection, succulent and divine!! The food was so good this place is an A+, I thoroughly recommend. read more

When I first walked in, my first thought was about how small the place was. They do not take reservation and operate under a first come, first serve basis. They also do not sets incomplete parties, which was annoying for me. I was dining with my mother and daughter for my birthday, but my mother was running late. I put my name down but by the time she arrived I was told it would be around 45 minutes. However, the wait was probably less than 15 minutes. We were seated and almost immediately someone took our orders for drinks. Also, they took our food orders not long after that. The food was okay and we were all pleased for the most part. I enjoyed my birthday brunch here and would possibly return here again.. read more

Small but mighty! This small eatery brings the flavors! Came here on a recent visit for brunch. While here I tried the following: Catfish & Grits: nicely battered and seasoned fish with creamy savory grits. Colossal jerk shrimp & grits: awesomely sized and seasoned shrimp with the creamy savory grits. Jerk Chicken BLAT: good to the last bite. Greatly prepared with bacon, avocado, lettuce and tomato. French toast: satisfied my sweet tooth. Huge portion! All dishes were delicious and adequately sized for their price points. I washed everything down with the tropical mimosa. Our server Shanice was great! I will definitely be visiting again! read more

Wow. The food here is amazing. Everything we ordered was delicious. The plantain with salt fish, chicken biscuit , shrimp and grits , oxtail and grits. I mean everything was good. The only thing is they are now cash only. The waitress said they started this because people would eat and enjoy their food and then dispute the charges. They ruined a good thing. But other than that. Food is A1 read more

Absolutely enjoyed the food here. I live Uptown, but I'm willing to make the commute just to have it over and over again. The vibe and service felt very homey. When my friend and I arrived, we were greeted by the owner/chef. It was an amazing food experience. I had the fried salmon and grits, a side of eggs, and a biscuit. My friend had french toast and chicken tenders. We shared a side of greens. Just know our plates were empty! They are CASH ONLY read more

We came for lunch a few months back and personally enjoyed the food a lot. We ordered a chicken a waffle because how can you not and then a jerk chicken meal with potatoes. First, the chicken in both meals were so so tender and both flavorful in their own ways. The fried chicken was very juicy and just hits the spot with the syrup and waffle. Next, I personally love love love jerk chicken so basically had my husband order that so I can enjoy both meals, ha! The jerk chicken was seasoned so nicely, there was a hint of spicy but it was so so good - the potatoes that also came with the meal was seasoned so well, it did not need condiments at all! Food was definitely 10/10 as with the service. The wait staff came over a few times to make sure everything was good! The space inside I think was the only thing that docked a star. It is very tight in there and we also had to wait over 30+ mins for a table on a weekday. read more

Great brunch! Flamingo Baby is a cozy, welcoming restaurant with great music. The service was friendly and didn't rush us out. We came on a busy Sunday, and everything was delicious. The fried catfish was the crispiest, I ever had! Our table shared the french toast, which was yummy. And you must try their fresh juice Pine-Ginger was the perfect level of spicy & sweet. I definitely will be returning to eat here again! read more

FlamingoBABY is such a cute little restaurant, I'm sad it took me so long to pop in. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The food was absolutely delicious. I had the fried chicken and waffles and the chicken was cooked perfectly and the waffles were good. My friend really enjoyed her catfish and grits. I tried a little piece of the catfish and I can see why it's a popular item. They do offer a bottomless brunch option and the tropical mimosas were good, but I think I'd try the Bellini next time. The only Downside is that it is a very small restaurant with limited seating and they do not take reservations. So be prepared to wait depending on what time you go. There was only 2 of us on a Saturday afternoon and we waited almost 2 hours for the table. read more

Brunch certified! I've been dying to try Flamingobaby for a while but it's on the other side of BK so it wasn't easy to get to. Anywho, I finally made it there on a rainy Saturday. They don't do traditional bottomless, instead you order a pitcher. It was two of us so I ordered the mimosa pitcher and my cousin ordered the Bellini pitcher and we split them so we could both try it. For food, we got the biscuit and cornbread basket and fried salmon bites as appetizers. For entrees, we did the catfish & grits and the fried chicken & French toast. We shared all of our food and we loved it all! We usually do cousins dates with two other cousins who couldn't make it this time but we plan to go back with them! Beware, they don't take reservations so you'll likely be waiting for a while. Our estimated wait time was two hours but we were seated after 55 minutes. Mind you, this was a late brunch - 2:30pm and we still waited. read more

!!!!!!!This review is strictly if you have to eat here alone!!!!!! I've eaten here a few times before with family. The food is good. I met chef Niki and found her wonderful. However, I came in today and got put by the bar because I'm by myself. I've sat here once before in winter. It is not comfortable. It is not a true space for eating as the bartender needs the area to work. The chair is too high and I have to sit sideways, legs dangling down. Today, in the heat of the summer, the slushie machine is apparently way more high powered than I remembered. Heat radiated off the bottom and blew hellish hot at the top. It was awful in this 90 degree weather. So I asked the hostess if I could sit at a regular table and her reply has ruined my perception of this place forever. She told me she couldn't move me. Said there's nothing she could do as they don't "prioritize parties of one". If she put me there, then there won't be space for "real parties of two on the waiting list". I insisted that I was also a party and I was uncomfortable but she just said she was sorry and there was no way she could justify moving me. I was too stunned to say anything else. Too stunned to even argue. Too stunned to stand up for myself and all the New Yorkers who go to eat out alone. Something this seemingly minor stunned me into silence. While she was condescending to me, my food came. With appetite gone, I got a to go box. Packed it up. Left. I guess that's the message: if you are coming here to eat alone, don't bother. Eat your food in the darkness of your house and leave the eating out to "real parties of 2 or more". It was incredibly dehumanizing and I can't see myself coming back here anytime soon. Also, they e taken to adding an automatic 18% gratuity to all bills regardless of party size so keep that in mind read more

I didn't even take pictures of my food, it was so good I gobbled it right up. I ordered jerk shrimp with a side of peas and rice, washed down with the last of their summer hurricane. The jerk was so good, I felt like I could lick that plate! I don't even know what my partner had, I was too focused on each flavor. But it was an easy win for him too. Y'all if you haven't been, go asap because you need need this your life. (It's not a big space, so keep that in mind too!) read more

Amazed at the portion size and the immaculate flavors that this place brings. Small and cozy and definitely slow in the kitchen but once the food came it was definitely worth the wait. The waitress was extremely nice and told us that everything is made fresh to order which is why it took a little longer. Everything was delicious. My favorite was the fried chicken, huge portion. Oxtail and shrimp roti was filled with flavor. The baked mac and cheese was delicious as well. Drinks were super strong . I would definitely be back. read more

My friend and I decided to check out Flamingobaby Kitchen for brunch on a Sunday at 12:30pm. They do not take reservations, but Google estimated a 15 minute wait, and that was fine by me. My friend got there earlier than me and was quoted 30 minutes for a table. We checked in at about 1:10, and the staff informed us that the tables were turning slower because they were understaffed. There was one person for the entire restaurant. At first, I was going to give them 5 stars because that really sucks if people call out and you still have to operate, but when I looked at other reviews, long wait times are not an anomaly. The inside is small, so they can only seat about 10 parties at once. The ambiance is casual and the larger tables in the back have cozier seating options. We got the mini biscuit basket ($14), chicken and waffle with jerk chicken ($24), and Bananababy! stuffed french toast ($20). The biscuits were TINY yet delectable bites. These are the first biscuits I have had in NYC that were not dry. However, I think $14 is really overpriced because they are so small. The other dishes were definitely worth the price taste-wise and portion-wise. I would definitely recommend ordering a regular sized biscuit if it is something you wanted to try instead of the mini ones. The idea of the stuffed french toast is genius because french toast doesn't have a lot of flavor on its own and is pretty dry. Again, no problem with the price on this, but since it's a pretty heavy dish, I would prefer a smaller portion size for a lower price, which I still feel would be filling. My friend said that the jerk chicken was moist and that the dish was tasty as well. When we were waiting for the table, the hostess explained that it would take a while for someone to take our orders. Since all of this was said up front, I feel like it would be unfair to criticize the service too harshly. Everyone was sweet and friendly despite the stress of being understaffed. The food also came out within a reasonable time. The one issue I had was that the water refilling was slow, and heavy dishes need liquid to break it up! Overall, it was a great experience, and I would be interested in returning for brunch or to try their dinner service! read more

After trying to figure out what to have to breakfast, my boyfriend found this spot on Yelp when searching for "chicken and waffles" and after looking through the menu we decided to check it out. When we got there we were waiting less than 5 mins for a table. The Restaurant is small but super cozy and had a nice vibe to it. I started off with some coffee which was really good and we started with cod fritters. They were pretty flavorful but we weren't too crazy over them. For our mains I got the breakfast sandwich with turkey bacon and side of breakfast potatoes and my boyfriend got the chicken and waffles and Mac and cheese. Everything was soooo hot and fresh and everything was exploding with flavor. I was honestly so taken back how good everything was and we were talking about what else should we try when we come back. Totally worth coming. Highly recommend checking this place out for brunch. read more

Flamingo Baby !!!! I've had my on this " Black Owned" restaurant for a whole year. My friends came in town from Maryland and we decided to endure the lengthy wait because reservations is not accepted . Our wait time was 1 hour and half. We didn't mind however it would have been nice if we could have a cocktail in the restaurant while we wait . Unfortunately, Flamingo Baby does hold enough space for cocktail waits lol The great thing is, this establishment is in a great area with additional bars and restaurants. So we walked around and sat down with margaritas else where while we wait . Well, Flamingo Baby is definitely worth the wait . I was pleased with customer service and a sense of southern hospitality . My food and drink was pleasingly good . I had the blueberry french toast with chicken and side of collard greens . In addition , we shared an appetizer of the Mac and Cheese and cornbread . We were happy and full . My other friend girl ordered the red snapper brunch meal and see was happy too . I hope that this establishment expands in size but for now, I'm okay with the intimate setting. It's worth wait. I'm glad I had this experience with good people, ate and drank good with positives only . S/O to Brooklyn read more

The food was super delicious! I loved their brunch options, and they had a good amount of options if you wanted something out of the normal waffles/french toast. My best friend got oxtail and grits and she said it was super delicious. I got the Bananababy French toast with fried chicken (you have an option of getting friend chicken or jerk chicken). The chicken was a little dry but I loved the French toast. It came with a pudding in between the French toasts along with the powdered sugar. We also had a baked Mac and cheese skillet that me and my best friend shared and it was super crispy at the top and soft in the bottom which was one of my favorite dishes. I definitely would come back for breakfast another time when I'm in the area. Be mindful however of parking (it is very tight but you're in Brooklyn so it's expected). read more

Food was really good. Ordered curry chicken special ($15) & chicken biscuit ($23). Curry chicken stew was very watery; I didn't like it being that soupy and covered the whole entire plate but was very well seasoned. I loved the price point shoutouts to the special. The chicken biscuit was amazing. Wished it came with some butter along with the sauce cause I like my biscuits buttery. Collard greens were some of the best I've had hands down!!! Rum punch was delicious! The space is relatively small inside so don't bring any large parties. I think the waitresses were training but they were attentive and offered help or to answer any questions. Now even though I loved the food the prices were crazy. I had ordered still water & it was $10 for the bottle. The chicken biscuit could have came with another side at least. I wanted to try the French toast it was ($19) with no type of sides & if you wanted to sub the waffle for French toast and fried chicken it was like $7-$9 extra and that dish was about $25 already. Imagine paying $30 something dollars for 3 slices of French toast & fried chicken, that's crazy! Nevertheless, I would pay $8 for them collard greens again. read more

I can't wait to go back! I visited Flamingobaby Kitchen for Saturday brunch and everything tasted fresh and was delicious. The place is small but cozy. They offer indoor and outdoor seating. I had the pineapple ginger drink which was tasty and the strawberry passion fruit lemonade. I couldn't really taste the passion fruit but it was still good. I ordered the wild Berry french Toast (my favorite brunch item) - 9/10 and the blueberry cream pancakes 9/10. The compotes with both items were really good! The food took around 15mins or so to come out but everything was fresh so the wait was fine. They have unlimited 1 hour drinks for $28 and the savory items like the Mac and cheese and chicken and waffles looked so good. So I have to go back! read more

We have officially found our favorite brunch spot in Brooklyn! We enjoyed cornbread, ackee and saltfish, fried chicken, blueberry French toast, and mac and cheese--everything was phenomenal. We also tried the sorrel and loved it so much that we ordered another round to take home. Chef Niki, thank you for pouring your love into your food, and a huge thanks to your team for the outstanding service and the warm ambiance. Please note that the restaurant is small and can only accommodate parties of up to four adults. They do not take reservations, but don't let that discourage you. The food, drinks, and overall experience are absolutely worth the wait. We can't wait to return during the week to try the curry and roti! read more

I've been meaning to check this place out since October and finally had a chance to this month since I was attending a concert nearby. I was not disappointed.

I will start off by saying the food is pretty good. I was able to try the fried chicken and waffles. Very flavorful and moist. My family also enjoyed their food as well. The place gets 2 stars for the lack of service. We went on a Sunday and had an early brunch around 11:30am and were a table of 7. We weren't familiar with the place so we weren't aware of how small it was. When entering we said we were a party of 7. They said if we're all there we could be seated together. Then tell us that their maximum is usually parties of 4 but that we can sit towards the back. It felt like we were getting accommodated which felt nice but that quickly change. We sat down in tables next to each other and when we asked to combine our tables we were told we couldn't connect our tables because it would "promote big parties and we don't do that" We were asked to sit in the chair instead of the bench so that our backs would be turned to the table where 2 of us were seated. And the woman constantly spoke to us as if she was dumbing it down that we cannot combine tables, or order all on one bill because they don't do parties more than 4. We were understanding and didn't have a rebuttal but yet we were constantly reminded by this woman that we can't do xyz. We were able to slant our chairs to be more inclusive to the second table. When we placed our orders we spoken to again like kindergarteners and explained that one tables order would be taken first and put in the system and the second tables taken right after. Wrong. The first tables order was taken and then she went to put the order in, went to make 5 of our drinks, and after 10 minutes took the order of the second half of our party. I understand a business could have their own rules in regards to how many people can be seated. Honestly I would've much rathered being turned away and going to another establishment instead of thinking our party was going to be accommodated properly. Instead we were disappointed with how the woman decided to speak to us, handle the seating arrangement, the ordering process, and how she took our order. read more

FlamingoBaby Kitchen has been on my list to visit after reading their amazing Yelp reviews. This small yet quaint Black-owned restaurant by Chef Niki serves up New American with Southern & Caribbean influenced brunch cuisine. Opening in 2021 in Park Slope, FlamingoBaby is among the growing restaurants whose concept is to welcome and delight their guests during the day, closing their doors early. Sounds like work-life balance to me. There is outside seating. But no reservations. We enjoyed the food, cocktails, service, and chill vibes. Everything tasted fresh and yummy. We arrived at a good time, because the restaurant soon filled up and almost every party was celebrating a birthday, which included one of my brothers. There was a wait when we departed. We delighted in: CODFISH FRITTERS Served w/Sweet Chili Dipping Sauce FRIED CATFISH STRIPS Cornmeal Crusted & Served w/House Tartar Sauce ACKEE + SALTFISH Served w/Dumplings, Breadfruit, and Fried Sweet Plantain FRIED CATFISH STRIPS & WAFFLES FRIED SWEET PLANTAIN SPIKED SORREL Sorrel (Hibiscus) + Gin Infused.

Y'all I think I am over here drooling while writing this review...!!! I can't wait to go back, truly! Yes you might want to make a reservation and also don't come here if you are really hungry as the food is prepared from attract each time, the wait can be longer than you are normally use to. The staff were so friendly. Greeted us when we walked in, then came out a few times since we were awaiting a spot to sit. Once we sat down the waiter we had was very pleasant and willing to please. He was very informative regarding the menu options. He was also straight forward that the food cooking process does take some time, so I appreciated the heads up. Their space is small so they have a few seats inside and then some outside as well. It's gets really loud inside once it starts to fill up so I enjoyed being outside. They have a cute restroom inside as well. Now down to the food...ahhh yes it takes a while to come out but it's DELICIOUS. We ordered so much! The Baked Mac, Bread Basket, Codfish Fritters, Cornbread Skillet, Spiked Sorrel, Banana Stuffed French Toast, and a few more options and everything was amazing. All in all I will be back!! Don't come here unless you like your date or friend as again it will take a while but it's worth the wait if you aren't too hungry. read more

I have been eyeing this restaurant for months and finally got the chance to check it out with a friend. They serve brunch all day till 6:30 pm on Sundays which I love! The vibes of the space are immaculate as soon as you enter this establishment. The space is sunny, bright, cozy and intimate with a few tables. Staff is super friendly and goes above and beyond. Everybody from the hostess, waitstaff and chef are so welcoming. We started off our meal with the bread basket, which came with biscuits and cornbread. The cornbread was super fluffy, not very dense and appropriately moist. The biscuits were tiny, flaky, and buttery. Perfection. For entrees I opted for the banana, stuffed French toast and Jamaican jerk chicken. The French toast was to die for I loved the filling. The jerk chicken was hot and fresh although I do wish it was a little bit more spicy, but the flavor was still on point. My friend ordered the oxtail which we shared. It was fatty and delicious and stewed to perfection. The mac & cheese was TO DIE FOR - I loved the crispy cheese top and edges, and even the bottom of the ramekin was crispy. A textural, creamy and dreamy delight! If you are looking for a solid brunch place in the neighborhood with exceptional food, and even better service look no further. 10/10 highly recommended. read more

Visited for brunch on a Sunday afternoon. Wasn't to busy, and was able to be seated upon arrival (they don't take rsvps). Smaller place with a cute flamingo painted on the wall. The brunch menu has options for everyone and they all sounded delicious so it was hard to pick-- but I went with the colossal shrimp and grits. For starts we had the biscuit and cornbread basket (which was not pictured because it was so good we ate it down so fast!) My friend had the berry baby French toast. Both meals were delicious and flavorful. However my grits were a little cold and I wish they would have melted the cheese on top. Rum punch (not pictured) was delicious and not too sweet. The waitress was nice and attentive. She anticipated our needs so we didn't have to ask for anything! Don't you just love when that happens? I would visit again to try other things on the menu! read more
