Took my GF here for her birthday. Got there around 1:30pm, first thing we ordered was bottomless mimosas. The OJ they use for the mimosas isn't the best but it's whatever when you're trying to get litt.
Food took almost an hour but it was good, except for the French Toast which was cold. We got the Huevos Rancheros, French Toast, and Burrito. Our waitress was nice too, just wish she would've came to check up on us more often and remind us about the bottomless time limit. We weren't keeping track of time so didn't get to take full advantage of the bottomless.
Bathroom was disgusting. Throw up all over the sink and no paper towel. I guess the staff wasn't aware but once we told the manager she took care of it.
Now, the reason why Im giving them 2 stars is because as we're walking out, the bartender stops us and confronts us about the tip we gave the waitress, which was 10%. She starts lowkey pressing us and asking how the service was and why we gave her 10%. Where I then explained my reasons: wait time, infrequent check ups, and overall not a good experience. She says that it's not the waitress's fault and that I should tip based on service. We just walked out after that.
I don't know how you guys feel about this but I was a waiter before and there were many times were I felt my service was exceptional and sometimes didn't even get a dollar. But I never went on to confront them about it. Let alone press them to give more lol.
Nice place, good food, just a bad day and unfortunately we won't...
Read moreStopped for brunch while on a relaxing weekend in Buffalo - a short "vacation" of sorts. Sat in a nice window seat for two with my lovely wife. My meal consisted of coffee, a virgin Bloody Mary, and Huevos Rancheros. The sunny-side up eggs were well cooked and balanced with a fresh pico, pickled onion and jalapenos, served with chorizo, cheese & refried beans on corn tortillas. Each bite of the dish had a good blended taste and ingredients worked together well. As some who prefers a bit of heat (ok, a lot of heat), I added a few splashes of hot sauce.
My wife ordered the Biscuits and Gravy. It was served with sunny-side up eggs. The biscuits were well layered but dense - only one of the three absorbed the gravy enough to soften it. The gravy was light and the sausage was very flavorful, but I prefer a greater portion of sausage (I've made a family tradition recipe for years that I consider our standard). The herbs to flavor the gravy were fresh but the only real issue was the cracked pepper was sometimes uncracked and a bit overpowering.
It was overall a great experience with a very pleasant wait staff and certainly worth...
Read moreStopped in for brunch for the first time since their reopening this past weekend. I'll start by saying that the atmosphere here was not an issue. The host and waiter were friendly and accommodating, and the patio is a really great space.
However, we had a not so great brunching experience when it came to the actual food itself. My friend and I both ordered the brunch salad, and the waiter informed us that they were out of one of the items...no big deal. We then receive what I would refer to as a "glorified side salad" with just crumbled bacon on top. We were missing almost all of the ingredients, which the waiter graciously provided us with the fruit that was missing. He said there were some salads that were coming out that were even missing the dressing. I understand mistakes happen, but as we were leaving we did see someone who had just received their meal with all of the correct toppings, plus the one the waiter said they were out of.
Long story short: the ambiance was pleasant, but the inconsistencies on something as simple as a salad really put me off, especially since we paid full price for salads with 2 of the 5 or so...
