Decor and Ambiance: 5/5 - This is a really cool place with a high-end feel. The decor is stunning, with lots of light stained wood and plenty of natural light, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere. One cool note, they told me the ambient music was being played on a vintage reel-to-reel table player, which was visible behind the counter at the receptionists desk. Cool feature!
Cappuccino: 5/5 - The cappuccino was excellent! Great presentation and a delicious taste. Get one.
Cinnamon Roll Starter: 3/5 - The cinnamon roll starter had beautiful presentation, complete with a lovely flower on top. Unfortunately, the rolls were overdone-to-burnt, giving them a strong burnt flavor. The creamy sauce that came with it was fantastic! But we ended up leaving one of the rolls uneaten.
The Fountain Room Spread: 3/5 - This dish had an okay presentation. It came with toast, but no jelly, which might be fine if you enjoy sopping up yolk from over-easy eggs. I ordered over-medium eggs, but over easy eggs arrived. When I mentioned this, they brought new batch that was much better.
The potatoes were ok, but may have suffered from siting on a steamer pan or heat lamp too long. I ended up leaving most of them. The bacon was also pretty done, but I ate it on principle lol
Overall my initial plate seemed to struggle to hit the mark regarding doneness, with under cooked initial eggs and overcooked potatoes and cinnamon rolls.
Chicken and Waffles: 5/5 - This dish was excellent! The presentation was on point, and the spice level was mild but perfect--smooth and just the right amount of heat without being overwhelming. The portion size was generous, so be prepared to take some home!
Staff: 5/5 - The staff here is incredibly friendly and helpful. When I mentioned my eggs and rolls, they brought me a new order of eggs and even took 50% off the rolls, she also comped the cappuccino. We didn't ask for any of that, which made the service feel even more exceptional.
Accessibility: 4.5/5 - The restrooms are well decorated and accessible, but note the upstairs seating/event space doesn't have HC access. Additionally, the main entry and restroom doors do not have a power-open feature that I saw. That said, the restrooms themselves are spacious, clean, and functional, with a low urinal option and appropriate grab bars in both the men's and women's restrooms.
30.5/35 = 4.3 which rounds to 4 stars.
Apologies, I was there with a very pretty lady so I totally forgot to get a pic of the menu.
