    This was the worst excuse for a brunch that I have had possibly ever. Not as advertised. We won’t be back

    It's a good place but it just doesn't really align with the name. The food is great but bang for the buck wise? Could do better than that.

    Our experience on Valentine’s Day was not great. The bar had a singles mixer that greatly impacted the service in the dining room. The mediocre rating wan not a reflection on the food or staff, but on the management as the impact on the bar event was not managed well and negatively impacted the experience in the dining room. 1st drink orders took 45min to arrive (glass of wine, 2 beers and a canned seltzer). Entrees didn’t come out together: 20 min from first to last entree delivered, salad arrive w/o dressing with the meal instead of prior (which was request multiple times). Whole experience took over 2 hrs…not what I was expecting. I have dined here before without issue…but this past experience was not a good one.

    We went to the restaurant for the Jazz Brunch, the music was perfect! Bottomless Mimosa's were delish. We felt that the brunch buffet was priced very high ($35) for food that appeared to be sitting out for a while, or at least it looked like it had been out for a while. So we ordered from the menu. Our server was excellent, but the atmosphere seemed kinda cold, not warm and friendly. We will visit again, maybe for dinner next time.

    Upon entering the restaurant, at least five people passed by us without a word. When we were finally acknowledged, we still had to wait to be seated. Once we were at our table, the server hurried us to place our order. Additionally, a runner who brought food to our table seemed to mock me for no apparent reason, which felt like bullying. It was strange. We also weren't informed about when salsa night began or that there would be a cover charge. It wasn't until we had been there for two hours that someone finally told us we needed to pay for salsa night. This place was odd. The food, service, & cleanliness is a -1. I won't be coming back.

    Dining during restaurant week has its drawbacks if the special menu isn’t what you’re looking for and it’s a busy night. Some servers were very friendly and doing their best when short staffed. Food arrived hot. The crab dip was tasty but without lump crab it’s mostly cheese. Penne pasta with chicken was very good. The salmon portion was small compared to vegetables

    We were a party of four. One of the entrees included rice, was not done and it was also very oily, so it had to be sent back for another selection. The server could have been a little more polit to the table.

    Amazing crab dip and spicy cajun pasta! Sangria was not sweet enough for me.

    My first 2 choices for dinner reservations were booked up. This menu looked good. Arrived to an empty restaurant. Service was good but food was bad.
