    I have been coming here for years. Grace our server was excellent. The quality of the food was subpar. Cheeseburger was dry, the fried chicken sandwich no seasoning. The best thing we had was the Hibiscus Basil Lemonade and the pretzel.

    We had a reservation through open table and were immediately seated after checking in. I got the adobo eggs benedict for brunch and it was fantastic. Such a unique take and still super flavorful. The pork was tender, the egg was poached perfectly, and the jalapeño cornbread was fluffy. It wasn’t spicy like I expected. I got the salted caramel moroccan coffee and it was okay. Very salty and alcohol forward. It was served hot, but when I saw the whipped cream on top and the glass it was served in, I mentally felt like it should’ve been cold. We’ve been to the location in Glade Parks, and this location at Grandscape maintained the same vibe. We’ve had the beer flight before which is a great bang for your buck if you don’t know what kind of beer you like. Since we had done the flight before, we knew we liked the Pecan Porter and it was super tasty.
