| - This is an update for the Sunday brunch:
My main issue with the brunch is that there is no a la carte option. You have to order 'all you can eat', of which they offer 3 options. The cheapest ($9) is pastries and fruit, the middle option ($13 I think) includes pastries, fruit, and one level of entrees, like red velvet pancake, omelette, french toast, etc. The highest option ($19) includes all the above plus their specialty dishes like eggs benedict, steak and eggs, etc. That sounds like a decent deal, but seriously, who is going to eat more than one breakfast entree?? So basically, you are stuck paying $19 for an eggs benedict or $13 for a pancake. The food is good and creative, and I could really tell that the banana muffins and cheese danishes were made in house.
The buffet mindset applies to the drinks, as well, with mimosas and bloody marys available only as all you can drink for $15 and $12, respectively.
Service was friendly and efficient, refilling our mimosas promptly and giving us some spaces since we had a cranky baby with us.
The atmosphere is still cool inside, which I appreciate.
Overall, I really want to love Republic, but because of the prices, it is not an 'every Sunday' kind of place.
