"A delicious brunch spot with southern comfort! Much thanks to Willis C. for the recommendation and company! There was plenty of seating when we arrived at 11:30am on a Wednesday, but the place got packed by the time we left! Be sure to plan your time here accordingly. We enjoyed a carafe of Ellen's mimosa, which included sparkling brut, a splash of Grand Marnier and choice of juice(s). We opted for OJ and grapefruit. I had to try one of their eggs Benedict. I was torn between the fried chicken or grits benny. When the fried chicken was recommended, I was thrown with another curve ball decision between the chicken and steak! Since the steak was favored, I obliged. The steak was flavorful and it wasn't too heavy. It was definitely a unique combination with poached eggs that I would probably never see back home! The side salad was fresh and balanced my dish nicely. The biscuits and gravy were perfection. Willis' go-to, the Big Ol' Breakfast, came with eggs, sausages, hash browns and choice of biscuits, pancake or French toast. I'm glad he went with the French toast because I got try it and it was just the right soft and sweet bites I needed to end my satisfying meal! The hosts and server were very nice and attentive. Not sure about parking since I came in foot, but it is located close to public transit, museums and shops to check out in the area!"
