Visited this bar for the 1st time over the weekend. Met with a manager name Billy while I was walking through the bar. Went upstairs to hang out Billy made his way up stairs introduced me to the bartenders And made sure that I was enjoying myself and making shore that the bar was running smooth. Will definitely make my way to the bar again enjoyed myself had a great time what an awesome atmosphere.
Very generous with the bottomless mimosas! Amazing brunch. Great service. They call it "Benchmark" for a reason.
Great service! However, if you are going for some unique food and for a low key brunch atmosphere this is not your place! This is for a younger crowd who likes thumping music and wants to enjoy bottomless mimosas! The food selection is vast but the quality and uniqueness is very average to me.
This place is BOMB - keep reading.
Levi, the bouncer, was very polite and noticed a sticker on my phone. He told Carolina, the hostess, that I am vegan. She informed the manager, Marty, of this fact who not only made sure there were some vegan options but actually went straight to the chef and asked him to make sure the party I was with got strictly vegan plates - JUST for me. Our waitress, Brianne, kept our glasses flowing - even after we gave her the checks - with champagne for mimosas and was EXTREMELY diligent and kind in her service. Ian kept the dirty plates out of our faces and was super sweet. I went to notify her and the GM - Billy - about how amazing the service here was and how grateful I was since it was my friend’s birthday and he made sure everyone was well taken care of and had a fantastic time. I will definitely be back here and 20/10 recommend this place. There are plenty of bars to go to but there’s something about a place that makes you feel valued that really deserves, not only my love and respect, bull all my money too. This is a rare gem.
Wonderful Sunday brunch with stunning and modern interior. The brunch buffet is $25 with items ranging from grilled cheese, shrimp, omelets, waffles and a dessert table. Unlimited mimosas are $15 more, and totally worth it. The waitresses was very on top of everything and kept the champagne flowing. My only comment is that we made a reservation for 20 people and while we had a section blocked off for us there definitely were not 20 places to sit, but we made it work.
