The food, service, and drinks were excellent. The oysters were delicious, the branzino was prepared perfectly, and the pasta was perfectly al dente. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience with our friends first experience.

Our server was wonderful. She did a great job checking on us, explaining menu items and communicating to the kitchen of a food allergy. Despite it being a full restaurant during our time there, we were still attended to by staff regularly at Miss Toya’s, we could talk and enjoy the music without having to yell -which can be an issue with brunches in general. The food was delicious, brought out hot and promptly after ordering. Brunch was great value for the price.
