Made a reservation for 2pm for my mother in law who came from NYC. When we showed up they were out of almost everything and were only serving eggs and stuff at 2pm!! It was a massive disappointment and tanked our whole day since we waited to eat -and ultimately had to find something else. There was nothing on the site they said it would be “brunch” only…2pm..my mother in law is allergic to eggs and we made a big deal out of the reservation only to...
