Review by Aubree G.

I recently visited Original American Kitchen for brunch and it was a delightful experience! The space is bright and airy, perfect for a family gathering. We kicked things off with their incredible biscuits smothered in savory gravy - definitely a crowd-pleaser! For main dishes, the country fried steak and breakfast tacos were both hearty and satisfying.

Though the peach crumble didn’t quite hit the mark - too much bourbon for my taste - the bottomless mimosas were a hit! Our server was friendly and attentive, making our meal that much better. I would return! 🍽️
