We had Jessica as our server. She was great! Attentive and responsive. The entire staff were soooo polite! I had the strawberry rhubarb French toast and it was delightful. My husband had the American breakfast with scrambled eggs and it was delicious. The bacon side was amazing and just ask for extra crispy if you like it that way. It was perfect! I would so eat here again.

    Our waiter was well informed about the food and portion size, with good recommendations. The sashimi tuna, cucumber salad, butternut squash dumplings, and lamb Szechuan noodles were excellent
