Varied brunch menu is flavorful. The 3 eggs Benedict choices are delicious with a choice of fries or salad. Early afternoon was quiet, but weekend evenings are usually lively and occasionally noisy with live music and good vibrations. Food is well prepared, presented simply and delicious. If one can get to dessert, the choices are very tasty. Menus are seasonal but will always have the neighborhood favorites.

    Spectacular every time. Highlights of this visit were the 40 oz ribeye, the campo rosso chicories, cranberry beans, and, of course, the chocolate trifle for dessert. There's never a bad, or even a remotely disappointing bite. It's also so refreshing to dine somewhere that genuinely cares about offering thoughtful, balanced, surprising, and fun desserts. This was my fourth visit this year (Chambers is becoming a go-to spot for milestones and celebrations), and somehow the bread got even more perfect? A higher rise, a nuttier, toastier flavor from the sesame. A simple offering executed perfectly.
