    Eat the calzone. It’s crowded and parking sucks but worth it.

    If you want to get seated, bring 7 babies with you, otherwise they will ignore you. Parties of two have to wait at least an hour for brunch (idea for future: invest in fake strollers).

    I do not recommend it, menu was not interesting. The staff were not friendly and the service was poor. Cafe was not fresh.with that price, Omni hotel has a great buffet with 25$ an lots of options.

    Croque madame is good. Open City Burger was not as good as expected. Patty was a little bit burnt even we ordered medium rare. We got new one actually.

    Along with brunch they make a mean "personal" pizza. My fave is pepperoni and olives.

    The gluten free piZza crust was dry and heavy. It arrived barely above room temperature. Cheese heavy and thick. Butternut squash not soft enough.
