Really expensive for an hour wait on a relatively slow day. We were seated about 15 minutes after we arrived, which wasn't bad since they needed to clean the table and we had come in as the breakfast rush had ended on a Saturday. Then our server came to take our drink order about 5 minutes later and we were still feeling pretty good. Half an hour later our server came back to tell us that our drinks were being made and asked if we were ready to order.
We put in our orders for biscuits and gravy, and for avocado toast figuring something must have happened and service would be going again. A bar tender dropped off our drinks about 5 minutes later and our food about 5 minutes after that. We both had bloody Marys that were very good. The biscuits and gravy were pretty good, and cooked properly, however the egg on the avocado toast was way overcooked. Unfortunately, we couldn't ask for a new egg because we wouldn't see our server again for another 30 minutes when she got us the check. We had to take the check to another server because we got tired of waiting for her to get it after about 15 minutes.
While we were waiting, my partner went to use the restroom and noticed some pretty filthy conditions including actually poop on the floor. This was right after a janitor had been exiting the restroom, so they seemed to consider plugged toilets and human feces (I assume) acceptable levels of cleanliness.
After I paid I asked for a manager so I could let them know how our visit went. After another 5 minutes she came and was very polite and apologetic, even offering to comp some of the meal, though I had already paid and wasn't interested in a refund or anything. I'd also say the young woman pouring water was great, and since I only had one drink (and one chance to order a drink) I really appreciated her. Total for the two meals and two drinks was $66, and the meal took about an hour and 40 minutes plus the short wait to get seated and the short wait to speak with the manager. All said a simple late breakfast took...
Read moreA glorious return to the office means checking out new places in downtown!
We decided to go for an early 10:30 lunch (gasp) and it still seems to be the pattern that most places upon up around 11. Luckily I found this place and noticed that they served both lunch and breakfast. The building didn't look like it was open but when we arrived I wad impressed by the atmosphere. Clean, more upscale, and not too busy which is just the way I like it!
Like others have pointed out it is definitely on the pricier end but the food and service was great. Our server was extremely knowledgeable and we all decided to play it safe with a burger but it was really worth the price. I'm always worried about paying more than 20 for a burger and finding myself disappointed but this place proved me wrong.
A nice little thing I notice about the service as well is that the staff would continuously come around and keep our drinks topped off. On top of this service was quick and all of us joined the clean plate club.
Definitely worth checking this place out for an early lunch and definitely a place I plan to...
Read moreWe were looking for reservations last minute for New Year’s Eve and were avoiding the “experiences” with a pre fixed menu that were over 100$ per person and found this restaurant that listed their menu with reasonable prices. Upon arriving we were given a limited menu and soon realized it was a prefixed menu for 125$ and offered no other option. We decided rather than awkwardly leaving we would eat the $125 per person and enjoy a four course meal, which just wasn’t the case. The first offered an overly salty soup, second course of lobster offered one bite of lobster, and the duck and halibut were dryer than the Sahara desert. Service was incredibly slow and when we received our bill it was for $800, granted it was $125 per person and there were three of us. They billed us for the pre fixed menu and on top of that all the items it included. While the server who made the error was very apologetic the food was not worth even $50 and I recommend you go elsewhere. The only thing I enjoyed was the wine, save your money and...
