Website: Rating: 4.5 out of 5 star Feedback: I love the place for brunch.  The entrance looks inconspicuous that you will be surprise that it will lead you to a pretty and spacious restaurant. Love the high ceilings and their outside patio looks gorgeous.   Food is generally good though price is on the high end side.  It is also very difficult to make reservations here unless you go for odd hours like 1.30+ for Brunch. Pecan sticky bun It tasted good though not amazing. I didn't like the texture as it felt like it was a kinda like eating a bread which has been there for a day or two.  I have tasted better sticky buns in the airports in LA, particularly Long Beach. Home-made Rose Lemonade Very sour with a hint of rose Croque Monsieur Love it! Champagne Omelette Quite good though I can prolly just choose something else

Truffle Fries - Love love love it! Egg's Benedict - Their beloved benedicts.  I like it and the tomato sort of paste complements that egg and hollandoise sauce.  The Yukon potatoes is good too but really love the Truffle Fries. Burger It was good but nothing spectacular We changed for a Truffle Fries!!

Not good though it was I guess good for 18 dollars buffet and 15 dollars for bottomless Mimosas Dragshow - it was OK but I've seen better ones.  Seems like they were more focused getting tips than actually entertaining people.

What annoyed me was that we have to wait for half an hour despite the fact that they had a lot of empty tables inside and outside.  Not sure if there were just lots of reservations, but even after finishing our food, the tables were still vacant.

Crepe House @ Valencia

I really like this... Cornflakes French Toast! ! Buffalo wings - it was OK, nothing amazing Really disappointing.  Crepe was crispy, not enough chocolate, and the strawberry felt watery/gooey.
