Came here for a quick brunch. Service is friendly and efficient. Food was spectacular. Even the basics like their Joe Blow was done extremely well. Prices were fair. I see why this place was rated so highly.

The crusted crab & eggs sardou will change your life. The creativity of this dish and upscaling of your typical eggs sardou far exceeds any expectations. I cannot wait to try more menu items here! I'm so glad they've reopened.
