This delish weekend brunch was a very pleasant surprise from my . I didn't know what to expect. The restaurant is tucked away (seriously) behind Potato Head in SYP, an area that I like going but didn't like the ramps and stairs. The decor was earthy and peaceful and the staff very attentive and pleasant. The menu was a bring-to-the-table appetizer brunch along with choice of main (pastas mainly, and a few other options). The staff highly recommended their rib eye, which we ordered, as they said

The menu was a bring-to-the-table appetizer brunch along with choice of main (pastas mainly, and a few other options). The staff highly recommended their rib eye, which we ordered, as they said it was highly sought after from their dinner and they only included it in the brunch menu after high demand. I didn't find it spactacular (so, it was a steak) and from the photos, the tomahawk style steak that they served for dinner looked much more attractive than what they served for lunch. At an almost $300+ extra charge for the steak option, it was not worth the hype.
However, the appetizers were amazing. We had three small salad bowls of beetroot, type of waldorf salad and a caesar, followed by a huge plate of iberico ham surrounding a buratta cheese, and another huge plate of cold cuts, some feta and tomatoes. The appetizer was the bomb!
As mentioned, we ordered the steak, which was a steak. The vongole pasta with a type of salty fish egg paste was super delicious. We ordered one of the lemon creme and tiramisu. The lemon creme was beautiful.
Would definitely go again for the charcuterie and the pasta.
