We ordered Eggs Benedict with superb hollandaise sauce and French toast, which was a thick piece with a slight crunch on the outside and a soft inside - delicious. Unfortunately, the Ricotta toast was disappointing, with chewy toast and hard bread. Despite this, we still rate the experience 4 stars instead of 5. The price was not worth it, around $15. However, we did appreciate the Victorian-style bathroom decor.

If you have a sweet tooth, the French toast is a generous portion of moist, delicious custard.

Food was okay, I opted in for the burger while my sister went for the huevos rancheros and my cousin went for the smoked salmon. The burger was good and the fries were crisp. My sister enjoyed the huevos and the smoked salmon was also good. The cool thing was that when we asked to have the bread replaced for the smoked salmon (we originally had the hard end of the bread, making it hard to cut through), Esme replaced it without issue. Overall the food was good, but just small. Plan to share French toast or pancakes if you come here for brunch. Service was fire though. We loved our server and he was ready and willing to come with recommendations.
