Breakfast, upgraded. 🤤

Meet our French Toast Sandwich. Scrambled eggs, bacon, and melty cheese packed inside cinnamon-sugar dusted French toast. It’s sweet, it’s salty, and it pairs perfectly with a Salted Caramel Espresso Martini or a cold draft.

Fresh, bright, and perfect for summer. 🍤✨

​If you haven’t tried this week's pasta feature yet, consider this your sign. Our Garlic Herb & White Wine Shrimp Fettuccine is tossed with succulent sautéed shrimp, blistered cherry tomatoes, capers, and plenty of garlic in a light lemon-white wine reduction. Finished with freshly shaved parm and herbs, it’s everything a summer pasta dish should be.
