Food was really good, drinks were OK, and service was good but a little slow. A host asked us to leave so the next reservation could be seated and we had only just paid a minute or two before that so the experience was a little rushed which was disappointing.

The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars for service was my coffee just wasn’t getting refilled as it should have. I was also drinking mimosas but still ordered & was drinking coffee as well. The waitress was lovely & on point with everything else.

What a delightful surprise to discovery this gem of a restaurant upon our move back to Atlanta after 22 years. The food and service (Chelsea) were FAB! Innovative menu and loved the vibe. Who knew one would need a reservation for breakfast. Glad we did~ It was standing room only when we finished at 9:15a

The food was delivered to our table only a few minutes after we placed our order. Don’t expect to sit for long after you’ve had your meal. They usually have a wait and need the table to accommodate waiting customers.

The place was nice and the customer service on a major holiday like Mother's Day was on point. From the host/hostess stand, to the server, to the food runner, everything was amazing. I can tell this staff is very well trained and to see the manager on the floor working alone side the staff was incredible. I will be back over and over again because my wife loves this spot now. This was our first time there but it will not be our last. WORTH THE 40 MIN DRIVE!!!!

Food was amazing and we really enjoyed it. We sat outside (not clear from our reservation and we were all dressed up for Mother’s Day) and it was incredibly hot (91 degrees). There weren’t sufficient fans or a cooling system. Our server was fine but the other servers in our section appeared more attentive than ours. We constantly had to ask for more water to cool us down from the heat. It would’ve been nice not to feel so rushed but we couldn’t bear the heat as we were all profusely sweating.

My favorite place to do Mother’s Day! Love that they now take reservations! Perfect brunch for the entire family, including two picky young kids. We always have way more food than we can eat and bring it home for a bonus meal. Friendly staff, good service, and now that they take reservations, there were even parking spots!

Cute place, excellent food, pricy, but still good. Service was absolutely the worst I’ve ever experienced! Waitress was angry and annoyed from the start. 8am, not crowded breakfast table of 4. Waitress was missing pieces of her fake eye lashes- late night?? Messed up order, then got mad when we asked for a side item of the correct side to go with the order. Never got a coffee refill or warmup. Terrible communication- and there was only two other tables with people…. Might go back again another time, to see if we get better service.
