District 2

OVERALL: 2 Star

We left with a disappointing buzz from the over juiced, over-iced pint glasses topped with a bit of champagne that they called mimosas. Though I would probably go back to this place to try it for lunch, since the food was good.  

Food Quality: 4 Stars -- I wonder what the place is like for lunch. We enjoyed the waffles, burger, omelet, steak and eggs, and benedict. Good classic brunch food that was prepared quickly and hot. The portions are large. I highly suggest the sweet potato fries as an appetizer.

Mimosa/Champagne Quality: 1 Star -- Pints of champagne and OJ sound like a great idea; less frequent refills, more stable than a champagne flute. But when you fill the thing with ice, and OJ then add a little dry champagne, call it anything but a mimosa.

Service Quality/Refill time: 1 star -- there was 1 host, 1 waitstaff and a bartender. The bartender was obviously busy mixing the worst mimosas ever, while the female waitress appeared to be flirting with the bartender and the single, middle aged dudes sitting at the bar. This left the host who was dutifully glued to his podium, and our waiter who was running back and forth to our table trying to get our food and keep up with us as we sucked our watered down pints of OJ. The demand was high but supply was just not keeping up. After a while, it didn't have to. We left.

Atmosphere: 2 stars -- Non destinct American sports bar. I did like the table arrangements though. We had a large, tall table near the front bay window that had great seating for a larger group. Towards the back were plush semi-sircle booths with tall backs to create the illusion of privacy for the diners. A small front patio area was full of burnch goers.
