Delicious, great portion sizes and affordable for the whole family! There’s a ton of variety from savory to sweet and the coffee and mimosas were also delicious. Chicken and waffles had a great flavor and the food came out very quickly, even though it was a busy morning. Great breakfast option in the neighborhood! Definitely recommend it!

Came here around 11:30 and it was pretty packed, which already says a lot! The staff were super friendly and our server was great, very attentive and welcoming. My friend and I sat at the bar, which was surprisingly comfortable. The stools were solid wooden ones (not those thin ones that hurt after a while), and the bar area itself was spacious, so we were able to eat and chat comfortably. If you’re coming for a table, I’d recommend making a reservation ahead of time the wait looked to be about 30–45 minutes for walk-ins. I ordered The Viking’s Breakfast, which was absolutely delicious! The home potatoes were the highlight, crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and seasoned perfectly. My friend got the Avocado BLT Benedict (without bacon) and really enjoyed it too. We shared the French toast bites with fruit, which were crispy, fluffy, and just perfection with the bananas, strawberries, and blueberries on top. If I lived in the area, this would definitely be my go-to brunch spot. My friend already said he’s coming back with his friends next time!

I had brunch at Brownstone and it was a nice experience. I ordered the eggs Benedict on toast with bacon, and it was absolutely delicious. The service was excellent and the atmosphere was warm and inviting, making for a really enjoyable meal. Highly recommend!

The downside to this is the wait. I put my name on the wait list before I left the house and I still had to wait 40 minutes before being seated. Its very busy and noisy but what can you fo. We met some new people while eating which was good. The egg whites were good, the cooked them how I liked. They don't use fresh ingredients for everything. The mushrooms were canned and so were the peppers. I didn't see or taste the onions. But the spinach was fresh and I like canned mushrooms. The chorizo was yummy and cooked just the way I like it. The service was ok. The waitress gave you time to eat and wasnt breathing down your neck. The coffee was nice and hot. I should have asked for an unsweetened flavor syrup. The butternut squash soup, that was yummy. They should do a pumpkin soup. I know it would be fire! Overall it was a nice outing. We spend more time waiting than dining, my mom said. The bill was 85 for 3 people and we left a 20 tip.
