    Great spot for breakfast, lunch, or brunch. The restaurant has a cozy atmosphere, though it can get a bit crowded and noisy during busy hours. The menu offers a solid selection of classic brunch dishes and light lunch options. My favorites are the salmon eggs Benedict, served on a homemade biscuit instead of the usual English muffin, and the Florentine quiche. They also bake fresh pastries daily, so the bread, cookies, and croissants are always fresh and worth trying. The restaurant offers a nice variety of natural juices and coffees as well. Parking can be challenging, so the $10 valet service is a convenient option. Reservations are highly recommended, as the restaurant tends to get busy at certain times.

    Loved this place. It was awesome. The service was amazing. From the time we walked in, until we left, we had someone checking on us. Drinks were great. We only planned on 3 tapas, but after those we had 6 (including desert, a cheesecake). For tapas we had coquettes, which were large and well down. The garlic shrimp was expertly seasoned. Overall we were very pleased. Can’t wait to visit the island again to come back.
