Brunch: I was dissapointed with the new brunch menu & that the avocado toast were no longer available. Also, the coffee arrived when we were midway through the meal.

L'ambiance, le service, la musique & le décor étaient exceptionnels. Cependant, le détail le plus important était assez décevant… Les repas. Que ce soit par des petits pois pas assez cuits ou une sauce trop salée, ou encore des textures questionnables, c'était tout simplement décevant.

Depending on the item, the food is really not bad, worth a try however make sure to plan enough time to spend there as the service is particularly slow. The staff is nice but it takes a while to get your food. However when it does arrive it's obviously freshly made.
