Exceptional, reasonably priced, and stellar service. Ask for Rachel - she's a rockstar server. Grilled cheese is bomb, mushroom scramble is delightful, Bloody Mary is excellent. You can't go wrong.

Mark Moore

What a great little find. Loved everything we ate. Someone in that kitchen cook with passion. The grilled cheese lived up to all the reviews, appetizers and desert were just tasty and unique.

Sonya Julie

Everything is delicious: pulled pork tacos , summer watermelon salad w/ beets , BLT, & the trout on crostini . The Bourbon selection was the best I've come across in Michigan! Enjoyed outdoor seating .

Monica MIngo

Everything was quite good! My sandwich was grilled and a little greasy but delicious. Combos of flavors in general. Prices are little higher than expected but worth the portion size. GO!

Steffi

Make sure to call ahead at least 30 minutes or else you WILL wait. Best food in Royal Oak and all fresh ingredients from local vendors ! Never disappointed with at meal here!!! Highly recommended.

The grilled cheese might win national praises, but the constantly updated local brunch menu is a prize in itself. [Eater 38 Member]

Most everything on the menu is great!

Joy Santiago

Awesome brunch ! The grille cheese is a must do. For dinner it transforms into a beautiful French bistro ! The best dinner around!

Ashley Prescott

Everything here is amazing, but the grilled cheese short rib sandwich is transcendental. They also have a long, ever-evolving specials menu. If I lived closer, I'd be there every weekend for brunch .
