    I called ahead to ask about booking a table and was told they don't take reservations, just walk in. When I called again to check about a waitlist, I was directed to their website, but there was no option or details about joining a list. It was a busy weekend, and after some effort, we managed to find a street parking spot amid the downtown traffic. [[HIGHLIGHT]]When we arrived, there were people waiting outside, and inside it was so crowded it was difficult to even reach the counter.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I saw at least 3-5 groups leave after seeing the chaos.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It seems popular, but I wouldn't prefer a place that handles customers like this. With the confusion and lack of clear guidance on seating, we ended up leaving and going somewhere else. Overall, it was disappointing. Clearer communication about seating would have helped, and it wasn't clear whether this is just how they operate or if they aren't concerned about their customers.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is a light hearted brunch/breakfast spot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They offer many great options and a bar with great cocktails. We had the chorizo omelette with pancakes and they were 10/10. The friendly customer service was an added plus!

    We went here for brunch the other day and it was delicious. Conveniently you can get in line on the Yelp app. My friends had the Farmers Omelet and eggs/sausage - and they enjoyed their meals. I had the Triple Triple omelet and it was so good and I loved the Cinnamon swirl pancakes. I was deciding between the two but was able to upgrade my omelet side so I was happy about that. All the menu items looked good.

    Great brunch spot in Ann Arbor with delicious food. We've been here a few times and today got the s'mores French toast and the seasonal item of chicken and French toast. Both items were fantastic! My only complaint is they don't have real maple syrup on hand as an option. Service was phenomenal as usual! [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have the Christmas decor out, which made the restaurant feel cozier.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Went here for brunch and it was great! It wasn't too busy when we went so service was quick. Our lattes were delicious and just perfectly sweet enough. The food could have come out a bit warmer but they had no problem reheating our pancakes when we were ready. It was a lovely morning with the sun shining through the windows. Everything was tasty and we can't wait to come back! *Make sure to check your bill before adding additional tip, they usually already add 18% gratuity

    $20 meal and it fits under two over easy eggs why such a big plate?

    Their pancakes was the best thing there, BUT brought the syrup 15 minutes later.Cold pancakes. Corned beef hash dish was horrendous not joking hard potatoes abundance of dry corned beef, said no cheddar had a 5-minute conversation with waitress about what type of cheese. the whole meal fit under two over easy eggs that tells you how small the portion was for $20. If you choose to go there get pancakes to go. Or just go to IHOP or Coney Island. I think I found a pic that fits this restaurant. $100 for 4 people. Had better meals at Coney Island restaurants and spent half the price

    Breakfast before the game!! It was a 30 min wait for a table for two. Check in on yelp to get your name on the list before you arrive. Very central to downtown and the stadium. Great breakfast to get the day going. Service is tight! These people are on top of it. Good amount of seating for the smallish space but comfortable. Very well run.

    We ordered the veggie skillet and corned beef skillet. You can select toast or mini stack. I love that a mini stack is an option! The service was great and the food came out quickly. Both skillets were tasty and filling. We loved the fluffy pancakes! Can't wait to return and try other menu items. There is an 18% service charge on the bill. That's why I knocked off a star. Just raise the prices. Street parking and there's also a lot nearby.

    Although I usually never care about service, I WILL care about it if you automatically tip yourself 20% before I even get the bill for TWO people. Don't get me wrong. I normally tip ~10-50%, but that depends on your service. For a restaurant to be dead empty yet for us to still have received terrible service, AND on top of that you automatically tip yourself 20%, that's all I need to know to never come back here again. * on TOP of the already 20% they automatically billed to us, they also had the audacity to even have a tip screen on the pay device to get us to tip even more. (How greedy can you be???) - sat down - waiter gave us 2 minutes to look at the menu before asking for our order - asked for a few more minutes - 10 minutes go by and waiter never came back to get our order. There was literally only 2 other people in this establishment at this time, and for the entirety of our stay. - I have to waive down someone to get our order. - we get our food, 2 minutes go by waiter checks in on us - waiter is never seen again - 15~20 minutes pass and we finish our meal, no one is walking around or checking in on anything. - we wait 5~10 minutes for a waiter to walk around, they never come. - I have to go up to a waiter (in the back) to ask for the check and to go boxes I wouldn't be AS infuriated if the food was ANY better, but it was mid. This place literally puts the "mid" in mid-west huh. Corn hash was decent, hard to mess anything up on this plate. Eggs were cooked to a perfect over easy, hash brown was supposed to be crispy but had that texture of something crispy sitting out for way too long. Burnt toast (yum!) 6/10 Cloud Crepes: 5/10 - Came out cold/VERY lukewarm, if even - fruit compote tasted very much like medicine

    The food was delicious. We both got a meal that included pancakes on the side, which was a great addition. The espresso martini was a little underwhelming, and very creamy and sweet. The mimosa was yummy and the service was pretty good. Be prepared to wait for a bit, but would definitely return to this restaurant!

    The Jagged Fork is an enjoyable brunch spot with a delicious menu in downtown Ann Arbor. Staff are professional & the food is tasty where my party generally had a positive experience overall. They were so busy that they overlooked giving us silverware where we had to ask for it after our food was served. I recommend joining the Yelp waitlist to maximize efficiency. Our wait was over an hour yet we were able to walk around downtown AA while waiting for a table to become available. The ambiance is loud with white noise due to high traffic and tables close together where it was hard to hear our conversation at times & we had to ask each other to repeat what was said.

My first visit was for brunch, and it completely won me over. The buffet had a wonderful variety of food, the mimosas and cocktails were delicious, and for the quality, variety, and service you get, the price point is very fair. I left thoroughly impressed. I came back for lunch excited to experience it again, and while the staff was just as warm and the environment just as great, however, this time the lunch menu didn't quite live up to my expectations. They offer salads, sandwiches, mac and cheese and similar American-style comfort food, which is totally fine, but for a restaurant of this caliber I was hoping for something a little more exciting. I ended up ordering a salad with added shrimp, which was absolutely delicious, and a pomegranate rosemary lemonade that was incredibly refreshing - perfect for a summer day-. But if you're not in the mood for sandwiches, salads, or mac and cheese, your options are pretty limited. My suggestion: keep doing everything you're doing because the hospitality and atmosphere are truly special, but consider expanding the lunch and dinner menu for those looking for a heartier or more diverse meal.

The food was super quick and delicious. We ordered the huevos rancheros with chorizo and ham & egg breakfast sandwich. Both were exceptionally well seasoned with lots of flavor. Eggs were perfectly runny for the rancheros and folded egg omelet was not dry on the sandwich. Crispy tortillas on the rancheros and house made chorizo was flavorful and not greasy. I'd say that this dish was not very spicy at all, I had to add cholula hot sauce which was conveniently on the table already. They have a bathroom in the basement, which you have to get through the kitchen. So, not accessible for all but it does have a diaper changing station available for the littles. Lots of seating choices: communal table, small tables, and window counter height seating plus outside tables in the back. Overall, will be back again with the kids since there were lots of families with smaller kids here so very family friendly.

My…read morefriends and I arrived 10 min before they opened for brunch and there was no wait, though the restaurant filled up quickly behind us. The space is rustic and simple, with fresh cut flowers on the tables. A majority of the walls were occupied by floor to ceiling racks of wine, as that is their award-winning product. Their brunch menu changes weekly and is extremely tight and cohesive. My party ordered the entire food menu sans olives (2/3rds of us don't like them), and two plates of the potato pelmeni. My thoughts below: Amaro Apertivo: mocktail based on the namesake dessert wine. This tasted like candy but not too sweet, and we enjoyed it a lot. Lovage soda: Google told me that lovage is an herb that tastes like citrus and celery. I am a huge fan of drinks with a twist, and I'd say that celery is a pretty big one! Crisp and not too sweet, the citrus flavor definitely balanced the Celery, and both flavors kept the soda fresh and crisp. This was great paired with the rest of the herbaceous menu and balanced out the richness of some later dishes, though it's not necessarily something I would enjoy by itself without appropriate accompaniment. Pickled egg, fried shallot, dill: I had only heard of pickled eggs in the context of strange British food on YouTube, so I was a little hesitant about this dish. The concept of an egg floating in vinegar brine is a bit off-putting, but once I powered through that mental roadblock, I found myself enjoying this bite. The egg is perfectly cooked with a slightly jammy yolk, and the shallots added a much needed crunch. Dill enhanced the pickled taste while cutting through the richness of the fried shallots and yolk. Sourdough focaccia, whipped butter: Never in my life have I ever made focaccia this tall. This focaccia was raised by a loving family and nurtured to develop a golden, non-greasy, crisp crust protecting its tender, pillowy innards. The classic sourdough tang is a novel addition to each bite, and cuts through the creamy, whipped butter to keep me wanting more. I could eat a whole pan of this alone, but we had many more plates to sample. Saucisson sec salami, pickled carrot: This is a simple, charming, carb-free mini charcuterie; place a slice of salami, some of the mozzarella (next dish on this list, below), and its oil atop a pickled carrot base, and you are in for a perfectly balanced treat. My favorite part of this dish is the fact that the salami was incredibly savory, and not too salty. The more you chew it, the more the flavors express themselves, so be sure to chew slowly and thoroughly! The crunch of the crisp, dill-pickled carrot and the soft chewiness of the mozzarella give each bite a lot of good contrast. Mozzarella, green garlic oil: Fresh, hand-stretched mozzarella is something that even I, a notorious cheese-hater, can't say no to. It is not sharp or funky at all, nor is it too salty. Most of the flavor comes from the green garlic and olive oil smothering each bite. Fresh and floral with a little bite, this was delicious with the salami and carrot above. Potato pelmeni, asparagus green adjika, sour cream: Given the portion size of the previous dishes (small, tapas vibes), we were not expecting the platter full of double carb heaven that met our eyes. And we ordered two!!! This is a gorgeous dish with plump, quarter-sized pelmeni nestled in a vibrant green asparagus and herb sauce with a dollop of sour cream on top. This was a classic comfort dish with a verdant twist! The pelmeni were stuffed full of creamy potato, and the dough was cooked perfectly al dente for a satisfying, pillowy bite. The sauce was homey but packed with zippy flavor and tender asparagus. The major feedback I have for this dish is that it was way too salty, to the point where the flavor was a tad too sharp because of it. Lettuces, radish, pumpkin seed, caraway vinaigrette: It was through this dish that I found out what caraway tastes like and through this dish that I figured out that I'm not a caraway fan. The lettuces were bitter and when combined with the slightly medicinal caraway taste, wasn't for me. The crunch of the radish and the nutty pumpkin seeds were great in this dish though! Fennel cornmeal biscotti, rhubarb compote, cream: This was a single biscotti with generous dollops of compote and cream. We were quite full when this dish was set in front of us, so I was frankly relieved for the small portion size. The fennel in the biscotti paired wonderfully with the tart rhubarb, and the rich cream rounded things out nicely without tipping into cloying territory. The savory cornmeal complimented the fennel and provided additional depth of flavor. A great small bite to end on! Overall, Spencer's strong fundamentals allow them to take risks with in-season local produce. Some things worked for me and some didn't, but I would love to come back to see what they can create next!

We ordered the eggplant small plate to share, then the mushroom pizza (so much tastier than the description would indicate), and the wild boar brat with cherry and peach accents.

This Sunday, my mom invited myself and my siblings to join her for brunch. The ambience was amazing - with lovely natural lighting and gorgeous table settings. The menu makes every dish seem mouthwatering and delicious. When the plates came out, they were gorgeous and the food looked so inviting. Unfortunately, the taste was completely lacking. If you're going to charge the prices they're charging, the flavor should be amazing in every single bite. We sampled four different dishes, and none blew me away. Some, were even borderline "bad." Here's a rundown: mushroom pizza - the description makes it seem like it will be cheesy and full of flavor, but it was very one note duck confit pizza - had three pieces of duck on it and was otherwise covered in hot peppers lemon blueberry pancake - more of a skillet cake - sauce was the best part, otherwise dry on the bottom Raclette burger - $30 which is almost comparable in price to a burger I had at The Four Seasons in Maui. That burger, was worth every penny. This one had absolutely no flavor. The meat tasted like mush - definitely lacked seasoning, and there was not a speck of cheese to be found. If you're going to call a burger a raclette, it should be oozing with cheese. grilled Romaine salad - leaves were bitter and the dressing again, looked delicious, but had no flavor. The flavors did not compliment each other at all - with the pickled grapes, taking away from the dish and contrasting very starkly against the rotten tasting lettuce Brown sugar oat milk latte - really the only thing that delivered both on looks and on flavor. Sadly, not high on my list of places to return. It kind of made me think of Vegas: lots of pomp and glam which momentarily distracts you into thinking you're having the best time of your life. But in retrospect, not very fulfilling.
