I wanted to love this restaurant. I really did. Unfortunately, we had a very disappointing experience. I decided to take family from out of town for brunch on Sunday.
Our first impression was how cozy and warm it felt inside and how beautifully decorated it was.The ambience is wonderful.

I'd like to point out a few small things. We started out with drinks. My dad asked for a glass of tomato juice. He was brought a Virgin Bloody Mary. I ordered three meals off of the kids menu for my boys and after waiting 30-45 mins for our food to come out, they were brought adult size burgers with the adult sides. They were quick to say they'd take them back however, we waited another 15 mins for their food. At this point the adults were finishing their meals. They didn't have any jelly for the toast. My son's bacon and eggs were cold. The list went on and on.
I am hopeful since it is a new restaurant, they will be able to work out
some of the kinks and be successful.

We were all patient and understanding and I definitely will go back and give this one more try. My suggestion for families with small children would be to order as soon as you know what they want given the wait time for food. I'm sure the staff is still learning and that is to be expected. I just wish, having decided to take out of town guests there, we had had a more positive experience.
