Over priced, over hyped. Went here for brunch and I was really excited. However, I was surprisingly disappointed. For starters, we waited over an hour... which wouldn't have been a big deal if the food was amazing... but it wasn't. Maybe I got the wrong thing, but I didn't think I could go wrong with eggs, toast, sausage and hash browns. The toast was hard as a rock, the hash browns were odd and burnt... on top of that i paid 10 dollars for ONE mimosa. The atmosphere was nice, you definitely feel like you're in a summer house, but a 100 dollar tab for two people at brunch is ridiculous, especially if the food isn't as mind blowing as the restaurant itself. On a plus, there baked goods looked amazing. Maybe I just went on a off day. But if you're not willing to spend at least 30 dollars a person, try somewhere else.
