Brunch time

Best brunch I have ever tasted in Houston, and maybe ever!!! I ordered the Brisket Migas, per our server's suggestion. My boyfriend ordered the burger. Him and I didn't even speak because the food was so so so good!!!!!! Awesome environment, well organized. The chefs and cooks obviously know what they're doing. Shout out to our server, Keaton, you were...

The server was friendly and attentive but not hovering. She also had an opinion - which I appreciate. We were not rushed and spent three hours eating and talking....

My partner had the mahi mahi and he was swooning with delight. Said it was possibly the best fish he's ever had. For dessert, we shared the chocolate cake that...
