    Corn Dogs
    Haley P.

    Overall, we had a fine time here. The place is super cute and they have a menu with a lot of great options. We showed up with a group of 6 and were able to get a table outside in the shade right away. The espresso martinis were delicious. My tuna melt was excellent and we all loved the breakfast corn dogs. The issue we encountered was that my friend was served her breakfast sandwich on a moldy bagel. When she pointed it out to the server, he kind of played it off but offered to have it remade. He came back later and told her she was right that it was mold and they had to throw out an entire thing of bagels.... But then still charged her full price for her meal. I wouldn't have expected at least a discount once he admitted it was mold! We were here visiting and I'm not sure we'd come back.

    Honestly, this food was so bomb! Lol I still think about those cinnamon roll pancakes. Yum! I had the cinnamon roll pancakes w/ chicken sausage & fried potatoes. Papa had two meals lol. He had the jerk chicken omelette w/ fried potatoes & waffle. He rated his food 9/10 & didn't leave a crumb. We also shared a mimosa tower & it got the job done. There was a 45 minute wait & we were starving but ended up grabbing a seat at the bar so it only took about 15 mins. Our server at the bar was friendly & got our orders in quickly (we were starving). They were playing some hip hop/ r&b but it's not a party & we really appreciated that.

    BLUF: Credit card fees, auto gratuity (on parties of 1+), and subpar food. Definitely a skip. Service (3/5): Service wasn't anything special. She came around to check in, and then never again. Someone else was filling up our waters as she was standing on the sidelines. Credit card processing fees and automatic gratuity (even on a table of 2). I'm not a fan of either of those. Gratuity is gratuity. Not a requirement. It should be based on the service provided, not prices of subpar dishes. And credit card processing fees? It's 2026. Either take a hit on that or just add that to the price of the food like every other place in the world. Food (2/5): The wrap was flavorless and dry as the desert. It is NOT worth it. The sandwich was good. I love sourdough bread. I make it every weekend. But... this bread was NOT a good choice for this sandwich. The food would just come out of the holes and turned into a huge mess. The plate was too small for the food, so the table was becoming a mess as I was trying to bite into the sandwich and everything falling apart. Ambiance (3/5): The artwork and greenery were cute. There are garage-door-like windows that were opened to create a breeze, but it let in a lot of car smoke since this place is right on the street. It was also hot outside, so we were a little uncomfy in the resturant with all the windows open and the sunlight streaming in.

    Love that the patio is dog-friendly. They brought out a water bowl which was so sweet. The service was a little slow but I think they were training up new employees. The food was good but prices were quite high and there's an automatic 18% gratuity that they did not warn us about so I'm warning you. I don't think we'll be back but it's always popping so hope you give it a chance!

    Short ribs & Purple Grits with a side of pancakes
    Danielle J.

    The establishment is bright and has a nice atmosphere. Seems to be a fan favorite in the area. We were seated pretty quickly, but our server did not come over for about 10/15 mins and kind of rush us through our questions, he said we should have a special menu but never brought it (we were facing were you couldn't see the specials menu). The mimosas hit, great flavor options there, like dragonfruit and peach. I ordered the short ribs and purple grits and a side of pancakes, the pancakes were delicious. The short ribs and purple grits were okay, I was expecting a hunk of short ribs but it was more of shredded with gravy and too many bulb onions.

    The food was amazing, literally some of the best brunch I've had in the whole city. And the space is gorgeous was perfectly decorated at the time for St Patrick's - perfect for Instagram. The downside to this experience was the service. Despite us coming in on a Friday morning the place was pretty slow, it seemed like they had a full house just with staff but it still took us so long to get our check it really impacted our overall take away. I'm looking forward to coming back in for the redemption because the food was really THAT good.

    untidy tables. Hard to see but there was syrup on the table
    Valarie E.

    This was recommended to be a great place to eat breakfast. I was seated immediately, as I got there at opening. The server Anya was nice. It took awhile to get some help and there were a lot of people working. I overheard another guest say that there were more employees than guests! The food came to the table and it was quite salty. I tried to drink my coffee in hopes to offset it, but it was not helping as it tasted burnt. I was so disappointed because shrimp and grits are one of my favorite dishes! The guests next to me were very friendly and told me that they were unhappy with their food too. When you are on vacation and looking for a fun place to eat, you really hate to see it turn out like this. The prices were a bit high, so $28 for shrimp and grits would have been worth it if they were good! No one tried to make it right, no one tried to fix it. Did not live up to the hype.

    Jerk Chicken Alfredo Omelet
    Jerilyn A.

    The menu here has so many things that sound good! I had to ask the waiter to help me choose out of my top options and we settled on the jerk chicken Alfredo omelette and the loaded hash browns. I was advised to get them without cheese because the cheese can be a lot but when I tasted them they definitely could have used something. I assume they may have been more enjoyable with the cheese added. However, that omelette was so good! I definitely recommend it if you're feeling a savory option. Overall the place was cute and service was fine. I would absolutely return to try something else.

    Jerk red snapper

    Haven't been here in 3 years since it was called Frances and I see why. It get crowded on the weekends and you sit pretty close to the next table. Parking is hard to come by in the area. I ordered the fried deviled eggs and these were just right with just the right amount of onion on it for me. My friend had fried catfish and eggs with hashbrowns. I ordered the special which was suppose to be jerk red snapper in a garlic sauce. My friend enjoyed her food, me not so much. There was nothing jerk about the red snapper and the sauce needed more garlic. I will say it tasted fresh but no flavor at all. I had eggs and cheesy hash browns. The hashbrowns were the highlight for me even ordered some to go. No issue with the service, Jesus was our waiter.

    I went on my birthday. All my food was good. I can't wait to come back. It was just my son and I, my waitress was a sweetheart and was cracking jokes with me. It's so pretty in there. We took a bunch of pics at the picture wall too.

    Half eaten Devil Eggs!! Sorry they were so good!
    Candace B.

    OK, y'all this place was amazing. Everyone of us enjoyed our food from the catfish, to the purple grits and lamb, to a strawberry shortcake French toast. Everything was super delicious. The mimosa flight was great, and they even let us take it to go. The shrimp deviled egg is a must do not leave this place without treating yourself to that!! Our server Anthony was amazing,vey charming!

    Birthday Breakfast

    One of my favorite places to come and brunch. Warm welcoming vibes and delicious food and mimosas. Everything about this place was nothing more than amazing. Friendly and attentive staff. Cute decor and outside patio. Just an FYI - They don't take reservations. Get there early to get a table and find parking. This place gets super crowded. Social media has put this place on the map. The apple and dragon fruit mimosa are my favorite. The French toast flight - strawberry, lemon zest, blueberry crunch and caramel apple are all delicious. The bacon was a little too salty.

    Jerk Chicken Alfredo Omelet & Catfish Executive
    LaTaysia Q.

    Was in Chicago and definitely had to try this place out. Heavily underestimated the wait times as well as the seating arrangements. I do not believe that we could make reservations so when we arrived the place was packed from wall to wall (not even kidding). Think it was about a 40 minute wait time. It's kind of compact and congested inside. Hard to maneuver without bumping into anyone, but it loved the theme. It was decorated festively throughout the interior. Drinks and food came out pretty quickly despite it being crowded. We tried the mimosa flight that came with beautiful mimosas. They were tasty and had a kick to them. I tried the Jerk Chicken Alfredo Omelette and my bf tried the Catfish Executive. Food was pretty good. Be sure to check your receipt though!

    just had my first Gotham bagel and OMG! egg everything was fresh with a slightly chewy slightly…read morecrusty outer and solf tender inside. Full of flavor and absolutely delicious. When are you opening in the south suburbs??? PLEASE!!!!

    I went to Gotham New York Bagels and Eat in Chicago and honestly, I loved it. The bagels were super…read morefresh, packed with a ton of filling, and had the perfect texture. I ordered the salmon bagel with onion and capers and it was incredible, really delicious. We also tried the cinnamon bagel with cinnamon sugar cream cheese and it was amazing, seriously one of the best I've had. They also had some sliced and toasted bagels that were really good too. Every bagel came with a pickle on the side, which was a nice touch. The place itself was amazing. There were plenty of tables to sit, a cozy bar area where you can eat or have a coffee, and the overall vibe was super friendly and comfortable. It's not a huge space, but it feels really inviting and there's enough room to stay for a while, you could even bring your laptop and get some work done. In the summer, they also have outdoor seating, which makes it even nicer. The service was great, the staff was friendly, and the menu had a wide variety of options for everyone. The only thing is that it's a bit pricey. We ordered two filled bagels and one plain bagel with just a small side of cream cheese, and it was almost fifty dollars. If all three had been filled bagels, I would totally understand the price, but since one was plain, it did feel a bit expensive. We also got the strawberry cream cheese, which was good but not my favorite. I definitely preferred the cinnamon sugar one. Overall, I would absolutely go back because the bagels were fantastic, the space was cozy and welcoming, and it's a perfect spot to relax or grab breakfast, just a little on the expensive side.
