I have only written about 3 reviews in my life on Yelp but this place definitely deserved a review because it was a pathetic excuse for a meal.
My husband and I just had the brunch today and I can say it was the worst $35 I think I have ever spent in my life.
Absolutely no care goes into the food...it was the worst.
-Banana Foster pancakes: DISGUSTING HARD BANANAS and clumpy disgusting jelly-type stuff on it - it didn't taste like bananas, I had my husband taste also and he agreed...I returned it. When I told the waitress she said the cook said the bananas weren't ripe...wth??
-Apple Cinnamon Pancakes: SMELLED like ammonia or some chemical was in the apple topping!
Both pancakes were sooo below average and I could have made them better for myself for free!
Omelets: WAAAY BELOW AVERAGE, another item I could have made a better one at home.
Strawberry Waffles: DUMB. A big, thick, soggy waffle with TWO cut up strawberries on top and whipped cream????
Please try to serve better food Republic Kitchen. People come to your restaurant and pay you for a decent meal...very disappointing meal. I actually wish I could get my money back for that.
It is clear that no thought goes into pleasing the customer but a lot of thought goes into charging far above what is deserved for this type of food...
