| - Was looking forward to trying a new place for brunch, brunch is one of my favorite weekend meals.
Made a reservation an got in with no problem. Decor was eclectic, loved all the windows and how bright it was with natural light coming through. It was kinda chilly out so only a couple brave people in the pool. We were greeted immediately by our server and offered all you can drink mimosas, bellini's or bloody mary's for $17. This is average price and also I think it's well worth it. So I agreed. As I'm drinking my first glass, she then tells me to get the $17 all you can drink you have to get the $40 brunch buffet. Huh? Why? That doesn't make any sense at all. I'm not a all you can eat type I person, I prefer to order one plate and enjoy what I ordered, not over eat on massive amounts of food. So I was a little upset I was being forced into the brunch buffet.
I ordered the crunchy french toast to share, it was pretty good. I wasn't a fan of "the fortress" our server recommended. It was fried Mac n cheese on the bottom loaded with pulled pork, an egg. It was sitting in a pool of grease. Barf. I pretty much stuck with the baguette station, I liked the blu cheese and fig and the pecorino and honey comb, oh an the banana nutella crepe. So I pretty much paid $40 for snacks.
Well the bellini's were good, and my company was excellent. Overall I enjoyed my brunch, but I wouldn't go back after paying $65. I will stick to DW Bistro or First Food & Bar. I can get my all you can drink mimosas and just order a plate of something.
