friends said their food was very tasty. I'm not a fan of spicy food, I took shaksuga and it was spicy for me, but my friends' food looked very appetizing. I really liked the atmosphere, beautiful decorations, the food looked great. 🤩

Stopped in to sample the brunch. The food was excellent: looked beautiful, tasted good, and relatively large portions. I asked that the eggs Benedict be made pescatarian, and they added a lovely assortment of vegetables. Yolks were a perfect creaminess when I cut into them....Read More

We stopped here for breakfast. I had the French toast (I was craving something sweet) and my wife had the brunch plate. We both enjoyed our meals! Service was fast and friendly, and it was not crowded at all on this Friday morning.
