3.5 rounding up on this visit!
We made reservations for 2 for brunch, which I highly recommend! Book early, because they can fill up. We had a family member come to town unexpectedly and join us, so we let the hostess know when we arrived and I assured her that if we needed to wait due to the increase to 3 in the party that was okay. Honestly I expected to wait, but the hostess was kind of rude. I had already stated waiting was no issue, even though there was only one table occupied outside. She stated in a snippy tone that she would be canceling our reservation and adding us to the waitlist. Again, no problem. She stated it would be about 20 minutes. We walked up the street to Joyner's to grab a cocktail while we waited. It ended up being about 30-35 minutes before our table was ready. She was much nicer when we returned but we all noticed that she was quite brash when we first walked in, especially because they didn't appear too busy. Nevertheless, we were seated.
We sat outside on the patio and it was a beautiful day! If weather permits, I certainly recommend outside seating.
Our service was pretty good in the beginning, but I do feel it fell off a bit after our food was delivered. Not to be nit-picky, but I have always had 5 star service at Mozelle's, so I guess I expected more.
The food was good! I always enjoy the edamame hummus as an appetizer. Super light and fresh. I got the fried chicken as my entree, it's one of my favorites! Always juicy and delicious. I really love their caramel peach shortcake, and it's one of my favorite desserts in Winston, however it was a little bit too done for my liking on this particular visit.
I'm guessing this visit was kind of a fluke, as I've been to Mozelle's many times with excellent food and service, but I just hope my next visit gets that 5th star back!
