Creative brunch spot with standout pancakes, benedicts, and mimosas; expect waits at peak times and occasional cleanliness or consistency hiccups.
Restaurant Summary
The room feels warm and bustling with playful train station touches and a model train circling above. Guests describe staff as friendly and efficient, though peak hours can get loud and waits are common. One diner noted, "The truffle benedict and crispy hash browns made the wait fade away." The cooking leans creative-comfort: benedicts with truffle hollandaise, croissant French toast, and a lobster or crab-studded omelette. Expect elevated takes on classics more than avant-garde experiments, with creamy grits and well-seasoned hashes winning fans. A few guests reported bland or overcooked plates and occasional cleanliness misses, but regulars return for the pancakes and benedicts. Families do well here: pancakes, waffles, and that overhead train delight kids, making it easy to order for picky eaters. Note that chocolate milk and some extras can feel pricey, and the room can be noisy at peak brunch; early visits are smoother for families.
