    The noise level today was a bit much. There was music playing in addition to the live music, it should have been one or the other, not both music playing. We arrived for a 10am brunch, the potatoes were cold and not even warm. The roast beef was overdone and cut into too large of pieces. The omelette station was wonderful, couldn’t of asked for better omelette. This was a worse experience than I have previously experienced at the restaurant. I brought my mother and grandmother for the first time and it was a bit of a let down from when I’d brought my brother.

    So much noise. A band and music on the speakers. Lighting was too bright and the conversations carried from all diners. Our server was wonderful. He did his best and we appreciated it.

    Dressed oysters are fabulous, but a little pricey. They had (4) Christmas parties going that night and a live band, so it was a little loud, but no less enjoyable.
