Only issue was valet parking was not available upon arrival. Had to fine street parking - couldn't. Had to pay for lot parking across street - pricey.

The food and service were awesome. It was a beautiful day in Del Mar, so it made it even better. The parking/valet is always a challenge due to the small parking lot, but I have been there several times, so I know.

We were celebrating my granddaughter's 40th birthday! I had made a very specific reservation and they honoured it completely. Had a personalized card on the table for her, and our service and food was great!

Brunch was excellent. I had Eggs Benedict and husband had Steak and Eggs. Food reasonably priced-drinks a little on the higher side, but good.. Service was excellent for as crowded as it was. Very organized system with assistants for waiters bringing drinks and food out so waiters could focus on taking orders. Noisy, but expected that since it was Father's Day. Waiter was very personable and friendly.
