Been wanting to try this place for quite some time. Finally got around to it! We came for brunch on a Saturday. Didn't take long to get a table. The lady told me it would be a 5 minute wait, which wasn't long to begin with but actually it was really only about 2 minutes until we got a table, which was even better.
Food was a bit slow to come out but we had experienced far slower at another restaurant recently. So...in comparison, the wait wasn't too bad. This was our 2nd Saturday in a row having to wait a long time for a our food. Seems like weekend brunch = longer wait for the food. Maybe we should aim to do brunches on weekdays and just go out for regular lunches on weekends.

Two people at our table ordered the Brisket Burnt Ends Poutine. One said it was good. The other wasn't too crazy about it. The latter seemed to think that more tater tots and less cheese would have been preferred. Also, she wasn't too crazy about the burnt brisket ends. Neither the flavor nor the texture agreed with her. This dish is subject to personal preference it seems, since one person liked it and the other person didn't.
The "Mini" Buttermilk Pancakes were not so mini at all. They were actually quite big for pancakes that were written as "Mini" on the menu. They were pretty much regular pancake size. Looked good.
The Benedict dishes at this restaurant are somewhat unusual in that they use bread pudding here instead of the usual English Muffin. I enjoyed my Mean Green Benny; however, I do think my egg yolk could have been a runnier. It was somewhat runny, but I'd have preferred much runnier.
Would I come back here again? Yes, but I think I'd prefer to come on a weekday next time!
