    The brunch buffet is great. I love that there is always lox. All you can eat lox!Other brunch items: Rare cooked roast beef. Apple smoked bacon. Omlets made to order. Definitely worth the price.

    Great restaurant a little out of the way, but definitely worth a visit. Great prices, service, and food.

    The mac and cheese is amazing! Their black bean burgers are also to die for...just be prepared for a mess since they are fresh! I always get the black&blue burger! Yum!

    The variety of the brunch has markedly decreased. They've removed salmon and many healthy salads. The fruit variety has also decreased. Okay for brunch in a pinch.

    Martinis half price 3-6 M-F and all day Tuesday. Awesome! Mac and cheese rocks! Nice beer rotation- not huge selection, but always fresh!

    Portions are huge, but the steak and burger where horridly undercooked, ordered medium got just last rare. They blew off the alatizer we ordered all together. Got the salad right at least

    Extortionist. They put an automatic tip on the bill as well as a "convenience" Fee. Played loud obnoxious music. Fried chicken sandwich into a brick. Management concerned only with getting our money.

    Don't leave without trying one of their great burgers or the Mac and cheese! Don't even get me started on their Ribeye!

    You must try the Pamatini. Order it on a Tuesday and it's half-priced. Order it in the next few days and take home your souviner shaker!

    Their Sunday brunch is ok. I personally think they overcompensate with a lot of cheese and grease.
