    The food was ok. Our waiter seemed disinterested in us the entire evening. The dessert was terrible and the manager said he would remove it from the bill, he did not and I paid for it anyway.

    I took my friend out for a brunch at this restaurant and she really enjoyed herself and the menu is affordable especially the drinks (during the cocktail hour) I definitely recommend this place even for a solo date
