First I have to say how impressed I was with this place. We went here the first time to see if it was a place wed want for dinner. Now the menu is sparse but dont let this fool you at all. We had a few drinks the first time than came back for dinner. Melissa seated us. She went out of her way to seat us in an area we requested. Laura was our waitress and Will was our food runner. Now Laura was the only waitress on so we didnt see her much. Will was our primary person to request anything we needed and he did a great job. My husband order the New York strip with a special cocktail and I ordered the steakbar nachos. The New York steak was cooked to perfection. The steakbar nachos....Ohh your missing out if you dont try. First time in my life I didnt use any cheese although it was right in front of me. The nachos didnt even need the cheese they were that good. What I thought was really impressive was as the manager was passing us she heard my husband say that is horrible. Stopped her right in her tracks and she came over to our table to inquire what was horrible. The drink my husband had just was overboard. The manager apologized and took the drink off the check. Completely impressive. Have you ever had a manger do that before? This would be the first. The staff as a whole makes the place and the food was a huge perk. Cons: Music a little loud but I truly dont care. Food is a little overpriced but keep in mind they do not skimp on their product so perfection comes with a price. Dont forget to try the Brandy cherries and luxardo cherries. Thank you for your time

I attended the Almost Famous Brunch this past week. It would be famous if they didnt make rookie mistakes. Which is hard to believe considering this restaurant is owned by Four Corners Tavern Group. When we were there, they ran out of waffles with no supplies to make more! The dessert options, a bunch of different donuts all with decorative additions, assorted candies, booze infused cupcakes and ice cream treats, but nothing irresistible unless I am a child with a massive sweet tooth. Decadent? Sure, if you like sprinkles, candy corn, and jelly beans on your donuts. Personally, the dessert selection, looks like it belongs at a mall or an amusement park. The other stations included a Bloody Mary bar, a Manhattan Bar (unique) and bottomless mimosas with assorted juices. The food is spread out throughout the restaurant, upstairs, downstairs, up another set of stairs, etc., which is risky when carrying food. But at the end of the day, I guess thats good as it forces you to work off the calories your about to consume and you possibly eat less because who wants to go searching for food and then perhaps your table?! The food choices and taste was to be expected at any other brunch or breakfast spot. All in all, nothing special. Cool atmosphere and this place will probably become popular once word gets out, but popular because of location and the hype. :p

The Almost Famous brunch is worth every dollar. For a flat fee you have access to multiple floors of food. From a donut wall and waffle/crepe station on the first floor, to oysters and a carving station on the second floor, to an omelette/eggs Benedict station on the third. Unlike other brunch buffets, everything is high quality and kept fresh throughout brunch. Theres even a full candy and dessert bar to finish things off. Well definitely be back!

One of my favorite brunches in the neighborhood. Despite the name, they have many vegetarian and pescatarian options. My group tried the salmon, poke, avocado toast, chilaquiles, and oyster shooters. All of the food was amazing! Their bottomless mimosa deal is great, but the Whiskey Smash is my favorite brunch drink on the menu. Service was great and sitting on the patio made for a such a great fall Sunday.

Wonderfully decorated, furnished & built - however has a very sports bar environment (TVs everywhere). There are three bars (one per floor). Had the spinach dip - delicious but both the dip and chips were incredibly salty. Ordered sword fish and burger with fries. Also delicious but SO salty!!! Everything we had was salty, very upset. Service wasnt the greatest either.

SUCH a fun brunch experience!! The all-you-can-eat brunch scene isnt normally my jam - but the food here was fantastic and the service was amazing! $35 for all you can eat (and its WORTH IT) and $15 for bottomless mimosas. And DAMN to they make sure its bottomless. I dont think my glass was ever empty.

I was not expecting the food to be as good as it was. I had a 16 ounce steak and it was a better steak than what I had at RPM Steak just last year. Very social environment and very very good food. If youre thinking about going, do yourself a favor and just do it.

I felt like this place wasnt trying hard enough. Overhyped. The steak was dry. I was not very pleased to find out that the coffee wasnt organic. The menu didnt match the one on their website. Overall experience: 3 stars.

Had the truffle patty melt. The burger was cooked to temperature and the fries were fabulous, crispy and not greasy. We sat in the outdoor seating with the roof over us. Very comfortable. Service was very good.

This place has fantastic food, and they know it. When your waitress has the confidence to not ask you but tell you "its delicious" after your food arrives, its all you need to know. Welcome to Old Town.

Ashley Jones

Brunch is unbelievable. Exceeded al of our expectations. Armine and Erin R were both fantastic. The food and as amazing...especially the eggs Benedict bar! And the bottomless mimosas dont hurt.

Zoe Slutzky

Pretty fun! Kind of an interesting lay-out- it should just be seat yourself but isnt. Not too many TVs... random table-top games wedged in the corners. Good vibe I guess.

Amy Zanlungo

Solid entrees, appetizers couldve used some finessing. Attentive servers, good music, great open window area to look down on the main street in Old Town.

Courtney Brooks

The brunch was awesome! Live DJ, bottomless mimosas, boozy desserts, omelette station, waffle bar, and more. Definitely going again some time.

Paul Gallop

Tim Sherwin

Tomas Spillane

What a great looking place! The drinks were delicious and so was the food. I cant wait to go back.

Jill Sandmire

Food was great. Little bit pricy yet worth it. Service was lacking in attentiveness. Overall good!
