    We've eaten here several times and the food, service and ambiance are always very good. The prices are too high for what the Lion offers and the wine list is comically overpriced, but it's a fun place.

    We had brunch here on the weekend that they had a new menu. Enjoyed everything about the place. Great food, very nice interior and excellent service. Everything was well prepared and tasted great. Corn muffins served with a herb butter to start were very flavorful. Main dishes were chicken and waffles, grits and shrimp and a frittata. All very tasty and presented well. Desert was a ricotta cheescake in a glass. All very tasty.

  • Beatiful people. Lot of noise.

  • Fun spot and good food and wonderful decor...but not worth the trip down town if staying on the UES. Long trip.
