    We went for Sunday Brunch. Green eggs bowl —eggs were well cooked & green components were fresh but it lacked salsa verde that was listed on menu and as a result was somewhat bland. Hot apple cider with cinnamon was very nice. My husband said his big breakfast was just OK.

    Vibrant, simple food with a flair and good staff. Ridiculously noisy...a square box with no attempt at noise-reduction...made conversation next to impossible. The wine and cocktails come out of spigots next to the expresso machines. They were awful.
