This past weekend I decided to try out April's for brunch because a friend of a friend recommended…read moreit. I went and the place is small but cute. The host welcomed me right away while attending other guests. I waited for my table for about 15 minutes. Not too bad being that the place was packed! In the summertime they have an outside patio area which helps with the capacity of people. So I get seated. Looked at the menu which was nicely done. I ordered a tequila sunrise to get the day going (don't judge me! ) after about 5 minutes my drink was brought to me. With such great service I thought I was gonna be ok for an amazing brunch... I wasn't! ‍ I ordered the Boston Omelette (steak tips, onions, mushrooms, peppers, and cheese). The dish came with home fries and toast. I declined the toast because I always ordered a side of pancakes with banana, strawberries, and blueberries! Even though the place was packed. The kitchen was pumping out the orders! The food came within 10 minutes. The presentation looked delicious. But after the first bite of my omelette, I knew we had an issue. The steak (or lack there of!) had not seasoning or flavor to it. Nor did the home fries! Very basic! I had to put a lot of salt and pepper to try and enjoy either item... I didn't even finish the dish. I moved onto the pancakes because they looked delicious. Whomp whomp! Another let down! The only good thing about the meal was then tequila sunrise drink! Would've expected more from this place flavor wise!

They were playing 70s and 80s music, which was fun for this Gen X girl. The staff is genuinely friendly and attentive, a crew of sweet kids. The food was really delicious and beautifully presented. Unfortunately, we forgot to take pictures. I need to put the Ox on my regular rotation. I'm dying to try more of their menu items.

We arrived on time and were seated in an area close to the bar for our party! The staff made us feel very welcome and comfortable. The restaurant was very clean, lit well and decorated nicely. We ordered a variety of drinks and dishes. The drinks were made well and were beautiful to look at. The appetizers were delicious but unfortunately I didn't get pictures. The foods were prepared with care and very flavorful. They were beautifully presented. My son had a cheeseburger and he ate every bit of it! Everyone in my party stated that their dish was delicious and that they would come back for more. We were also surprised at the end when the staff sang happy birthday and presented a slice of tiramisu cake to our family member whose birthday it was! That was so very thoughtful and appreciated. We appreciated the good food and the good vibes! I highly recommend!

They have scrumptious changing specials to choose from, one of which has been a cinnamon roll pancake and was so yummy. They also actually cook bacon and sausage well-done when asked. Some places don't hit that mark, but Andy's does! And don't even get me started on their hot chocolate! Some places it tastes watered down, but not here. It hits the spot! This is a very popular breakfast spot, that somehow doesn't make you feel like your sitting on people's laps, while still fitting in lots of seating. Remains one of our favorite breakfast spots to go to.
