Turkish eggs. Period. The most heavenly brunch you'll have
Pat McCoolSeptember 29, 2012
Try and sit at the kitchen counter in back - it's much more entertaining and you will appreciate the craft more!
Ben WymerDecember 21, 2013
Sit facing the open kitchen if you can and have a Bloody Mary at brunch. Spicy and not too thick.

A litre of wine for $40 and the best sticky date cake in the world.
Erin PettigrewJuly 9, 2012
Day or night, order an orange juice. It's cool, creamy, and frothy. A spa treatment for your alcohol-beleaguered gullet.
Mackenzie MooreFebruary 5
Sticky date cake, spicy anchovy toast not to be missed

Skip the crudo and the burrata. Mushroom pate is great.

Ricotta crostini, pork chop, and the burger are phenomenal!
naveenMarch 19, 2016
the Brussels sprouts to start. and yes, the burger.
Ben GoldOctober 12, 2013
They will literally juice anything, which is awesome because both times I've been here I've forgotten my ID.
Premshree PillaiAugust 19, 2013
Lovely food. If they have it, get the rabbit & foie gras terrine.

Loved the ricotta crostini, duck hash, shrimp & grits and the pancakes.

Great service. Sit at the bar in the back, order the fish.

Pancakes with creme fraiche and maple syrup are divine
Brian MasefieldNovember 1, 2014
Better for dinner than brunch. Avoid the pancake (doughy, thick, and not made with love).
Suzy TranOctober 8, 2022
Veggies were really good! Skip the Crudo.
maria carrozzaDecember 12, 2015
My favorite drink. Show the bartender. 🤔

Butternut squash soup and fresh doughnuts. Delicious!

The spaghetti squash is a gluten-free diner's dream!
Isa SierraOctober 25, 2017
Delicious brunch. But we were stuck at the end of the room and the staff could not really see us. The coffee could be better.
AndreaSeptember 15, 2011
Love--sit near the kitchen to see how the chefs works and to feel the heat. Food is good too.
Jennifer KMay 14, 2011
Cool Hand Cuke is delicious! Aaron is a fantastic bartender. Also love the Ricotta crustini, and beet salad

Ask Ian the bartender for the gypsy (not on the menu): bombay sapphire gin, elderflower, splash of orange juice, mint
Devin P-BSeptember 26, 2015
The date cake is proof that a mouth can have an orgasm.
eric mortensenApril 7, 2013
Sticky Date Cake. You must eat it. The donuts are good, too.

Follow your evening of drinks with a coffee. Not sure where it's from but the French presse is a nice touch.
Scott FosterFebruary 17, 2019

Get the ricotta crostini and sit at the bar overlooking the very busy kitchen.

The Bloody Caesar is perfection. Best to have at least two.

The bartender makes a killer dark and stormy. Oh, and order everything with bacon.

Biscuit benedict with breakfast sausage meatballs tasted like freedom.

Get the side of bacon. It's definitely worth it. And BEST eggs Benedict, ever.
