Been meaning to check this out for Sunday brunch since I live close by (walking distance) and was pleasantly surprised. It's a bit tucked away but that makes it all the more special.
The setting was wonderful it made me feel like I was having breakfast with the Mad Hatter in Alice of wonderland with pretty checkered tablecloths and tables with heat lamps outside. Note: There is also inside seating for you desert foxes. The beautiful grove of pecan trees in autumn foliage created such a surreal backdrop to our usual drab scenery in the desert.
They didn't have egg benedict, my absolute favorite, but they did have excellent belgian waffles, pecan french toast and their grove breakfast special of the usual eggs and skillet potatoes.
This movie reminds me of a Danish movie, I once saw where 4 ne'er gooders open a restaurant out of an old country farm, the best line was "Some places you don't go for the food, you just go there because the place is so pleasant"--The Venue at the Groves is indeed one of those places.
