"The food is absolutely AMAZING, service is great. Everyone is very prompt. Definitely plan on a wait around lunch time and dinner time. Worth the wait. Lovely inside, just more of a louder bar vibe than restaurantes if that's not your jam, I'd consider one of the larger locations like Waterford. We will definitely be back."

"Great spot! Food is excellent! Country chicken benedict (so good!) has poached egg on biscuit with fried homemade chicken tenders sprinkled with bacon and lots of sausage gravy. Highly recommend! Server was so nice and working hard doing A LOT. The only drawback is music is a tad loud and it echoes in there quite a bit. Kitchen noise louder further from bar area (we sat in larger booth wall area). My Gram had a hard time hearing us. Maybe next time we try the bar booths / they’re up on a platform and harder for her to get into though. Lower tables best for elderly. She had tasty pancakes, eggs, and bacon. My uncle had biscuits and gravy, eggs, sausage - all very good!"

"Fantastic brunch place in the heart of downtown Lake Orion. Everything was excellent, except, someone might want to take a vacuum with a duster attachment to their ceiling vents, the white long vent box above the cooking station looked furry. Not a big deal just an observation. Thanks for the great experience."

"Great service. Good drinks. Decent food. Comfortable seating and several large TVs over the bar for the sports fans. Ambience is noisy, but there is enough space between tables to carry a conversation. Came here for date night; we each ordered a drink, then split an appetizer (Rhode Island calamari) and some chicken sliders with garlic parmesan fries. I wish the breading on the calamari was crispy, but the calamari itself was cooked just right and the beurre blanc sauce paired well with it. The chicken sliders were kind of disappointing as the chicken was dry. Really liked the garlic aioli though; I would have liked more of that. The garlic parmesan fries were great. We didn’t eat dessert, but we did order an Oreo cheesecake slice to go for my brother-in-law. He said it was good and very rich. All in all, I enjoyed this restaurant and would come back to try out their breakfast/brunch menu. If someone were to visit in the evening, I can only recommend drinks and appetizers."

"Really great breakfast in downtown Lake Orion. Glad there is a nice higher end restaurant in downtown Lake Orion that serves breakfast. I love a good coney or coffee bar that has food but it's nice to have something classier when you want a more high end breakfast. The food was really good and the service was even better. Our waitress made sure we had water and coffee at all times and checked in on us enough without being annoying at all. She was stellar. The place is also really great looking. Nice bar, easy layout for navigation. Highly recommend!"
