My wife and I finally had the chance to have brunch here. My 4 star review was determined based on several factors.1. I gave the food a 3 would have given a 3.5 if possible. I had the avocado toast with bacon which was subpar. The toast was hard and chewy, the avocado was not freshly cut. My ceasar salad wrap was good and included some potatoes. I enjoyed that part of my meal. The coffee has alot to be desired. Tasted like low end dip coffee. One negative is they do not have honey for your coffee or tea.2. The service was great. The waitress was attentive, checked on us three times. Deserves the 4 stars.3. Atmosphere was small town feeling, cozy. I liked it. Definitely a four star.Overall i liked the place and will be back.

The restaurant is family owned and in an old house with many rooms. That ambiance may or may not be to your liking. The food was very good, but choices are limited. The server was inexperienced and was not up to the quality of the food. I recommend it if the quality of the food is your major factor.Parking: Street parking only, and had a long walk to the restaurant.

I was really turned off by the penalty for being more than 10 minutes late. They require you give them your credit card to make a reservation and will then charge you $10/person.

Very atmospheric spot in Smyrna, great for brunch and lunch. Happy hour and daily event listing in photos below.Our food was fine and cooked properly. I got crepes with cherries and cream. There were just two preserved cherries on top, with cherry flavored whipped cream inside. I would have preferred more fruit but that's just my personal preference. Husband got the French toast combo which was also cooked well. Decaf coffees. No espresso or cappuccino drinks as machine was down. No oat milk, but almond milk available. No celery for bloody marys.Overall I'd come for the atmosphere, with the food of secondary importance.

Very sad to say. We were here for New Year Eve 2023. We weren't expecting this. The place is simply beautiful. Our server Izzy was the best. However, the food was very disappointing. First, the soup, while it had a great flavor, it was barely warm. The main course wasn't any better. My prime rib was over done, and over spiced. The twice baked potato was undercooked, and again hardly warm. The cheese on top wasn't even melted. They left a quarter of the potato in the skin, which you couldn't even scoop out it was so raw. My girlfriends dinner wasn't much better. The chicken was overcooked as were the shrimp.That said, the saled and desert were wonderful. Once again, our Server Izzy was amazing. We didn't share our disappointment until after the meal. Why because In addition to Izzy waiting tables, she was also tending the bar, as well as being the hosting.In addition, we were the first reservations of the night. I've read so many great reviews of this place. Maybe the kitchen staff was just having an off night. We will give them another try.
Had a 6:45 reservation, did not get our food until 8 pm. One server for the whole place. There was a party of 12, plus the other tables. Maybe have an additional server. Not blaming our server. She did the best she could and maintained her cool.

We came for Sunday brunch and left thoroughly satisfied and happy! Although we did not get to experience the mimosa bar, they did have two mimosa options available, and the food made up for it! We will be adding this gem into our rotation for brunch for sure!

Came in after another restaurant was closed and didn’t realize it was so fancy since we have young kids. The hostess not so nicely told us we could not stay

Terrible experience and gave this neighborhood restaurant many chances . Last time I visited was : Paint & Sip Pumpkin Stack Wood SignSunday Nov 12, 2023 ⋅ 1pmCobalt Manor, 47 East Commerce Street, Smyrna, DE 19977No human decency, passive aggressive. The only establishment that dislikes its clients.I have given this place 4 times and each time , it has gotten worse and worse.
