| - I went here for brunch recently, and I'd say the 3.5 rating on Yelp is pretty accurate. It's a cute place, and they have a variety of different menu options so there should be something for everyone. Though the food isn't super unique, or outstanding, but just solid. And I don't necessarily want to pay 16-18 dollars for just solid egg and bread dishes. You can find a better brunch in this city for 13-14 dollars a plate at places like Emma's Country Kitchen or Barque Smokehouse.
You are paying more money basically for the ambience alone, as the service is rather slow and spotty. For instance, we asked if we could get seperate bills and the server said "no problem". What came was one bill, and a total per person (so divided by the number of our party). Also the majority of the people who were served coffee initially got cold coffee, though they corrected it..
My girlfriend had the pork sausage on cornbread. She liked it, but said it was a bit too saltly. I had the lemon dill scrambled eggs, which did come with a generous portion of smoked salmon. It was pretty good, but not good enough that I'd want to run back to have it. Overall the menu comes off as interesting, but a lot of the "seasonal" items on it are not available, even dishes with mushrooms.
If you are looking for a place that has the vibe and appearance of a baby shower, or wedding shower, then this is the place for you. Though it's definitely not a place I would brunch every weekend.
