| - Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I want this review to be five stars but I just can't.... yet!
Here's what works:
Location - awesome and super close to home for me
Hours & Menu - dinner AND brunch? Yes please!
Libations - mmmmm, drinks are on point
Here's what I would love to see some improvement on:
Food - the food has all of the bones to be GREAT, but for some reason it just doesn't quite have the pizazz you hope for. The breakfast Sammie is an excellent example. It's this HUGE sandwich with scrambled eggs, thick bacon, pimento cheese, all on a beautiful roll. Sounds astonishing, right? Wellllllllll the sandwich was so large/tall you can't actually bite it - and when you try, all of the scrambled eggs fall out (hint hint, try fried eggs!), the pimento cheese was wayy to tart/vinegary - not savory like you would hope for, and the bacon was thick but mostly fat and not crispy - I ended up pulling it off and just eating the meat, and even that tasted more like pork than bacon. Overall a fantastic idea, but the execution could be better. It left me wanting more.
Same with the roasted cauliflower - I found myself looking for salt and pepper to add some flavor to it.
In summary, I would certainly go back, and this place has all of the makings to be phenomenal.
