Gratify

"At this Rice Village hot spot, brunch is not limited to the weekend, but instead is offered beginning Wednesday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m, and lasting through Sunday. The dishes are a mix of brunch staples like steak and eggs and creme brulee French toast and Gratify’s signatures like caviar and chips, grilled broccolini and lentils, and the charred octopus. Amp up your visit by parking yourself on the cozy wraparound patio, and enjoy the sights and sounds of the Village while you dine." - Eater Staff

"With its spirited crowd and loud, artsy decor, Gratify is a see-and-be-seen destination in Rice Village. Go with the caviar and chips, or start by perusing the options within the cheese case showcased prominently at the bar. Follow starting plates with mains like lobster risotto, and beef bourguignon. With dishes like caviar-topped deviled eggs and smoked salmon gravlax, Gratify’s brunch menu is worth noting, and it’s offered daily." - Megha McSwain, Brittany Britto Garley

"Rice Village is home to patio restaurants galore, and Gratify is a standout among them. This trendy food and beverage spot from Big Vibe Hospitality gets additional charm from covered wraparound patio with dining tables and comfortable lounge seating overlooking a gorgeous community green space. As a bonus, Gratify is one of the few places in town that offers its brunch menu daily, making it a great place to kick back with mimosas, caviar and chips, and a sinfully indulgent crème brûlée French toast." - Megha McSwain, Brittany Britto Garley

"This Rice Village bistro encapsulates over-the-top design sensibilities. The vintage-chic decor features an eclectic mix of furniture and bold, patterned wallpaper. The dining area is dark and moody, ideal for an intimate date night, while the expansive patio conjures the feeling of quintessential French bistro sidewalk dining." - Brittany Britto Garley, Minh T. Truong

"Gratify’s espresso martini is a favorite during its buzzy weekend brunch, but rest assured the espresso cocktail is offered all day. Simply combining vodka, espresso, and coffee liqueur, the drink is best paired with one of Gratify’s indulgent dessert offerings, like bread pudding or date cake." - Brittany Britto Garley, Megha McSwain
