    Beignets and Coffee!
    Gabby S.

    Service was great per usual. The restaurant is clean and is great if you are looking for excellent breakfast options! I didn't wait long to receive my food and everything tasted great!

    French Toast Bites Entree with fried chicken
    Latanya B.

    Jewell was my server while visiting today! She had a great attitude and greeted me with a smile! The food was tasty per usual, however the chicken had a little too much coating for my liking but still tasty. French toast bites were crunchy and full of flavor. I loved the hot honey syrup with this dish, Jewell also brought me warm syrup on the side. I came here for lunch today and sat at the high top where it was a bit quieter bc I had to take a work call. It was also very clean.

    Eggs Cochon Benedict
    Eleonor M.

    The wait staff was very customer friendly. I was impressed with our servers ability to remember orders without writing it down. The servers seem to mentally multi-task but compartmentalize each task action. So don't get in a hurry. It was interesting to watch. The restaurant was clean. The table cleaning could use a little improvement. Seemed like it didn't really clean just spread the mess around. Some tables needed a little more muscle but the method used seemed to be "one size fits all". As for the food. Mom and I each started with a Vanilla Chai Latte which were tasty and huge. Skip If you're calorie counting. Mom had the Berry Chantilly Stuffed French Toast--omg it was good. Of course I had to try it. The stuffing was rich and creamy. I opted for the Eggs Cochon. Some of my bites tasted like old grease. I tried to taste each ingredient separately and figured out it was the biscuit. It was the bottom and edges of the biscuit. Which tells me that the sheet pan they used has built up grease that wasn't properly cleaned. The inside of biscuit had that homemade fluffy biscuit taste. I just had to avoid eating the bottom and sides. The hollandaise sauce was orange in color and I couldn't figure out why. Nothing stood out when I tasted it. The apple braised pork was so tender. Overall it's a good all day breakfast place.

    Ham and cheese omelette, bacon, pancakes and Breakfast Potatoes

    I attended the soft opener of this location a few years ago. Everything we ordered came out hot and fresh and as delicious as it looked. My favorite dish was the fried green tomatoes with the bacon jam. I plan to go back in a few days and plan to update my review then.

    Coffee is a cut above here.

    My first time at this location of Ruby Sunshine. I'm so glad to see this resturant chain growing and adding locations. I've seen them in Nashville as well as Birmingham. They are bringing New Orleans Brunch culture to the folks!! The service at this location could not have been more welcoming and down home friendly. The Eggs Benedict were cooked to perfection, perched on a freshly baked flakey biscuit with gourmet bacon, fresh tomato and topped with a delightful hollandaise sauce. Great outdoor and festive indoor dining available here. What a fabulous way to begin a day!!

    Bananas Foster French Toast
    Davida B.

    This was our first time at this location. Great service and food! I got bananas foster French toast and a single gingerbread eggnog pancake and bacon. No disappointments - the pancake was better tho! I'll definitely be back.

    Trattoria Zaza - Pizza Caesar salad

    Trattoria Zaza

    This place is my type of vibe!…read more Trattoria ZaZa has been on my list of places to stop at for several years. Parking often deters me but after attending the Italian Festival earlier that day, we had a craving for pizza. I ordered the combo that includes 2 slices of the day with salad. Since I wasn't overly hungry, I offered him one of my slices and he added another slice to the order. We paid and were given a number to place on our selected table. Jazzy music played in the background while we waited on our order to be brought to the table. The natural lighting, while beautiful, made it a little warm in the building. One of the waitresses propped the door open that leads to the restrooms (which are in the hallway near the elevators) in order for cooler air to make its way in. That wasn't a deal breaker, but do be aware of that on warmer days. Our food came out after a short wait. I kept my 3 cheese slice, and gave him the pepperoni one. The cheeses were very rich and the salad, while simple without the frills, was perfectly sized and drizzled with a balsamic vinaigrette that was just the right amount. While I enjoyed my meal very much and the ambiance, he wasn't overly impressed with his. He didn't want the fresh herbs on his slices and knocked all of them off, lol. He's a simple guy with simple taste. This is definitely a place I will be revisiting with one of my girlfriends and not him next time as he didn't appreciate what ZaZA had to offer. Everyone we encountered was helpful and courteous. Our food, including drinks, was around $28, which was not bad for a cute, eclectic spot downtown. If you haven't been, make sure to try them out soon. Just don't wait as long as I did to visit!

    Where to start? Went on a weekend, place was packed. The…read moreBad: 1. SLOW. Waited in a line inside of 4 people in front of me. There was someone at the podium at the end who i thought was a server. Was not. After a 15 minute wait (why did it take that long?), we got to the podium person. And found out they were there to take our order, not seat us. Can only assume the 15 min delay was because people were trying to figure out what to order. No signage anywhere saying, please have what you want ready while you wait in line. 2. No menus, anywhere. Yes they can be printed and people in line could take one and figure out what they want. Yes, the menu could be put on the wall behind the server in large lettering. But no, they make you scan a QR code on the wall and view the menu on your phone, so that's inconvenient and a bit obtuse. 3. When we finally place an order for pizza, was told that, "they dont serve pizzas on the weekend, but we could order their "brunch pizzas", instead. Which on the counter, was small anemic cut slices of thick bready pizzas on the cutting board/table. Those each were $8.50 according to the menu. Figure the math of 2 small slices of pizza per person for 2 people vs just ordering a large pizza. But they don't serve pizza during brunch- Trattoria literally has the word "Pizza" in their last name- twice actually- yet you have to order a nearly $9 slice of pizza sitting out on a table for who knows how long, and of the flavor of their choice, not yours. It was flat out insulting to go to a pizza based establishment and be told they won't serve whole pizzas. We left and went to Uptown to a pizzaria there, and had a really good whole pizza, salad, dessert, and drinks, and all for half the price then if we had gone to Trattoria. Wanted to give this place a chance for years, but did not work out the way i had expected it to.

But I'm sorry the food? (In my case shrimp and grits) was NOT GOOD. And don't get me wrong, it wasn't a horrible flavor, but the flavors it did have were terrible. First the grits are not smooth at all. Like they aren't super course but they definitely could have been cooked down more. And they had little seasoning. And that's being generous. Then the "creole" sauce on top? Can we ask the audience what they consider creole? Because that was just pure tomato sauce. Like straight out a can, had to be. No way someone cooked that sauce from scratch or even with creole seasonings or typical additives I'm sorry I just refuse to believe it. AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST... 5 shrimp??? You can't be serious. I could understand 5 shrimp if they're the huge jumbo ones but these are smedium at best. Like I feel BAMBOOZLED because no way I paid 24$ for 5 shrimp and maybe 1.5 cups of grits. But imma be honest I'm not surprised the food wasn't that good. Any place that puts on the bottom "we can't refund for food you don't like" that should tell you everything you need to know. But I digress My friends said the tequila sunrise was good so that's another star. Service and tequila sunrise. The only highlights. The venue is pretty but I don't recommend

It had so many layers, and the tomato added the perfect balance, preventing it from being too salty or overpowered by the bacon. I've actually developed a newfound love for tomato gravy. In comparison, the Jack Benny was too salty for my taste. I really enjoyed the fried hash cake, but with the ham, the saltiness was all I could taste. I loved the décor, and this experience definitely doesn't deter me from coming back to try more dishes.
