Lily, our server, provided outstanding service for brunch. The seafood tower is delightful surpassing expectations. Ample for 3 with enough crab salad left for our guests of honor to take home to enjoy later. Our main course was the butter cake for the birthday girl. The whip cream is a full stand alone dessert. Appreciate the mission and Lily’s wonderful support team that kept the water fresh and table clear.
