| Mediocre at Best 2009-04-25T11:47:35-07:00 I went here for brunch and the portions were extremely bland and small. We waited for 10 mins as waiters and waitresses passed by our table without acknowledging us and we had to literally stop one of them to say we were ready to order. … |

| DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY! 2009-03-12T12:50:36-07:00 We have frequented here a hand full of times. Albeit the food is overpriced for nothing special and the service average, the pleasant atmosphere used to be enough to offset the unpleasantries. However the last time we went there was… |
| Tasty, mellow brunch 2009-02-07T14:49:00-08:00 I came here for brunch on a Saturday. Started off with a couple of very nice pomegranate bellini's. Next, a bowl of fruit. Very nicely cut, but a bowl of fruit for $6 is a bit steep. Oh well, another sip of the bellini's smoothed over any… |

| Taste 2008-12-09T03:22:34-08:00 This place is definitely overrated. And you're paying for the name/atmosphere. I had the ahi burger and it was not great at all |

| Very average 2008-11-17T03:04:25-08:00 Went here with some friends and tried many things... the ONLY thing I was impressed with was the truffle mac and cheese. The burger we got was burned on one side and undercooked everywhere else. The drink barely had any alcohol. Not too… |
