Naomi Tolson: Crab cake with plantain was delicious. Great brunch spot
Terecille Basa-Ong: Super nice - I only had $5 on me and my total was $5.17, but she let me slide. Much appreciated!! I have a punch card now and will continue to go back and show my loyalty :) Good coffee and croissant!
Harlem Ambassador: A small place that specializes in small plates. That mezze w/ curry chik is tasty. Cod fritters and shrimp are worth the trip alone. $4 wine for happy hour b4 8pm. Can we get them to stay open later?

Brad Garoon: Brunch accompanied by a jazz set is soothing. Try the Venison burger, a gamey patty topped with sweet blackberry onion jam, farm cheese, and country ham. The challah bun is a great touch. Read more.
