A hidden gem in Western Addition. Located in a residential area. Though a small restaurant, had a great ambience with pleasing interiors. Food was just awesome and service was outstanding. Served food very swiftly. Would suggest to reserve the table before you land there. Would surely visit regularly since it's pretty close to my residence.

Beautiful little bistro with amazing food. The pancakes are amazing! The prices at this location are really good as well.

Diverse dishes that are amazingly tasty to eat and delightful to see (be it a regular brunch item or a chef's special culinary masterpiece), incredible interior, and friendly staff are the attributes that come to my mind, when I think about this place. Salmon benedict, short rib benedict, baked sea bass, seafood fettuccine, mushroom ravioli, etc. tasted delicious.

We had 30 minutes for dinner before getting to a show and the staff was extraordinary in taking care of us. We started with a complimentary soup followed by the burrata and fig salad which was delicious. We then had the escargots and the mussels which were really good. The escargot had a fresh flavor which turned out to be basil.
The ambience is cute.

Warm welcome by the host, the atmosphere was intimate and cozy. I enjoyed Truffle Mushroom Bruschetta, that's my favorite and we ordered two plates of those yummiest!
We were here to celebrate a friend’s birthday and we were happy with the service.

Went for post-church brunch last weekend and was delighted by the ambiance and food. I tried the mushroom omelet and two orders of pancakes (blue matcha, banana pancakes). My boyfriend approved of the short ribs benedict. The omelet came topped with hollandaise sauce and now I never want an omelet served without it! Maybe a few two many mushrooms in it, and couldve been cut thinner for my liking but these are minor. The flavors were good and the home style potatoes were super fried and squishy on the inside (in a good way). If you dont want the salad you can ask for extra potatoes! The pancakes were the fluffiest I've ever had at a restaurant yet still had a surprising sweet bite to them. Would recommend to take family or friends.

First time for brunch. Waitstaff was wonderful, friendly, and very accommodating. They allowed us to order dishes from the dinner menu. Who does that these days!
I ordered braised shortribs. Meat was tender over French fries since they did not have mashed potatoes available during brunch.
Three others ordered seafood risotto (portion is small), mussels and prawns were fresh, served over saffron risotto. This dish is an acquired tasted, has some metallic
mussel taste to it. The mushroom chicken was the hit. Brussels Sprouts, truffle mushroom bruschetta were delicious, highly recommend. Spaghetti bolognese was good. Desserts were also good. Give this place a try 👍. Sorry, I forgot to take pics of the main dishes.

We went on a Tuesday night at around 8 PM. It was not busy at all with 4 or 5 tables occupied. It felt romantic and the closest occupied table to us confirmed it's a good choice for a first date. We got the beef medallion with risotto to start. It was creamy, but the flavor mostly came from the beef. The risotto needed to be seasoned a little more. We then ordered one of their specials that night, fettuccine with spare ribs, and their teriyaki skirt steak on mashed potatoes and green beans, topped with onion rings.
No complaints on the fettuccine other than it was a small serving. The serving on steak and mash, on the other hand, was pretty generous. My boyfriend liked the marinade on it and how it went with the teriyaki sauce on the side, but I didn't. Wouldn't order it again.
Still, overall not a bad experience. Would definitely try their regular steak if we drop by again. They also have a decent wine list that I did not take advantage of, but will next time.

Searched up "saturday brunch" and found this place highly-rated. We found street parking so easy and went for walk in the Panhandle before our scheduled meet-up and eat-up booked via OpenTable. This is on the corner of a quiet residential area with very nice looking apartment buildings. I don't usually gush about brunch but this was really well done. 1) poached eggs for the Benedicts were well-cooked with runny yolks and soft whites; 2) steak with the chimichurri sauce was so delicious (whole 'nother level of steak and eggs); 3) roasted potatoes are excellent (usually they are left abandoned on our plates at a brunch, but we gobbled them all up); 4) ricotta pancakes were right-sized (one con: couldn't taste the matcha over the blueberry flavor) and had a nice texture. Only other con was that I expected the bellini to have a peach puree vs. syrup. The burrata salad was a little too sweet dressed with the ample dollop of fig preserve and I've had better fresh-oozing burrata. The service was very attentive and friendly getting our order in quickly before the 20+ table, serving us water refills and clearing our plates. The ambience is more in line with evening dining as it's darker seating inside with a fun light fixture on the ceiling and mix of leather booth and wood chair seating. Overall it is a 4.5 star (note: I rounded up).
