I'll sum this up, over priced, you literally don't get what you paid for, sh-tty music, and service level that's lower than a food truck/fast food. This place is a little confusing. The prices suggest there would be actual servers but there aren't any. They tell you to stand outside to look at the menu but when you go in after looking at the menu no one tells you that you have order at the counter that's tucked away in the pack and next to the exit not the entry. Again for the prices you expect at least a server to tell you what to do, although for those prices you also expect a server to take your order at the table. Then you order a crab eggs benedict and mimosa, GET CHARGED for a crabs eggs benedict and mimosa, and you get a plain ham eggs benedict and no mimosa. You get a number and told to sit at a table, although they'll ask you to move, like they did to the people sitting next to me. I was alone and half expected them to ask me to move to a smaller table outside when a couple walked in. The wait time for the food wasn't bad, although like I said I didn't get what I ordered, but the music was so horrid I had to put my ear phones in to get a break from it but it was playing so loudly I could still hear it over my spotify. Now I can say the eggs benedict was good as long as you like over cooked eggs and a suggestion of hollandaise sauce. Since I wasn't asked how I wanted my eggs assumed it would be the standard soft poach but in got solid dry yolks. From the dribbling of hollandaise sauce that I got, I would say it was delicious just wish I had more than a suggestion of it. After eating food priced at a point where you'd expect a waiter, you would think there's be someone to bus the table for you but instead you get asked to bus your own table. Cool, exactly what I want to do, stick my hand in a disgusting bin of other peoples dirty dishes after paying for food I did not get to eat and a drink I did not get drink. I had to pay at the counter when I ordered so I tipped the staff way more than they deserved for doing nothing but get me the wrong food and not serve me a drink I paid for. And no I did not speak to what front of the house staff there was as I was a customer and it is not my job to train the staff of a business how to do the preschool level parts of their job.
