Wait Time

Pros:

  • "Arrived 30 minutes after opening on Sunday, signed up on the wait list, got seated about 7 minutes later."

Cons:

  • "With 55 min wait and rude service? No thank you!"
  • "I waited 2+ hours on a weekend, and the wait time was well over the estimated seating time on yelp."
  • "There is a long wait here, we had to wait nearly 2 hours to get a table."
  • "The waitlist even at 10 am is like 2 hours so I would recommend getting on the waitlist and then trying to time your arrival."
  • "Considering it was a weekday, we’d hadn’t expected the wait to be long, but when we arrived, we were 21st in line with a 60-90 min wait."
  • "The wait is long on weekends so be sure to join the waitlist on Yelp ahead of time!"
  • "The wait time is real, late Sunday 3pm we still waited an hour to be seated. Then the pancake took another 30 to be served. Finished it in 5 min though. Absolutely delicious!! Would wait again."
