    The experience started on a positive note with the hostess making an amazing first impression. However, the service fell short, as our server seemed overwhelmed and distracted. We never felt we had their full attention and were rushed through ordering and paying, which negatively impacted the overall dining experience. I ordered the Tres Leches French Toast. While it was flavorful, it was overly sweet for my taste. The accompanying bacon was underwhelming, lacking the crispness and flavor you’d hope for. I also tried the “I Want S’more” drink, which was a disappointment. The presentation did not live up to the enticing social media photos—it lacked flair and appeal. The drink itself had a much stronger whiskey flavor than expected, overpowering the chocolate element. Unfortunately, it didn’t live up to the hype and isn’t something I’d recommend. Overall, this spot didn’t meet expectations for brunch.

    The food was decent, but the ambience and setting were fantastic. The cocktails were excellent, and the high menu prices seem to reflect the view and service rather than the quality of the food, which doesn’t quite match the stunning scenery.

    Very disappointed with the service my guest and I received. The waiter was rude. He was inattentive, brusque, and then added on a 20% gratuity for two guests (maybe this is the restaurants policy, but I feel this is bad form for a small party). I brought someone here who was not local hoping to show them a good time for brunch. Would not recommend.

    Bryan, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are truly sorry to hear about your disappointing experience. Providing excellent service is a priority for us, and it’s disheartening to learn that your visit did not reflect that standard. We understand your concerns about both the service and the gratuity charge. While the automatic gratuity is a policy, we appreciate your perspective and will certainly take your feedback into consideration. Please know that we will address this matter with our staff to ensure this situation is not repeated. We hope you might give us another chance to make it right in the future.

    Linda vista, con hermoso lugar. Lamentablemente en los estados unido el tema de atención al cliente de los americanos a nosotros los latinos a veces deja mucho que desear
