Though my brunch experience was hit or miss - deviled eggs lacking flavor and a subpar burger - the Short Rib Benny at dinner was a revelation, paired perfectly with their delicious Crème Brûlée French Toast.
Service was friendly, and I appreciated the complimentary champagne toast after a hiccup. I’d recommend it for dinner, but would be cautious about brunch choices... 🥂
