A.r. Valentien - Étlap

Great brunch experience with friends, one of which was celebrating a birthday today! Sat on the deck and had amazing service. Our main server was Ryan, but we also had Jack and Mo helping as well. What stellar service and amazing food! Every special touch and detail is thought out, from the tea timer for steeping hot tea, to the butter with maldon salt, and blankets if it gets chilly in the June gloom! I had the green shakshuka, and it was delicious. And, they brought a beautifully decorated plate with chocolate truffles for the birthday girl!

Food and service were excellent here. Jake and the busser (didn’t get his name! wearing black face mask, were both lovely. I was recommended the Bull’s Eyes dish that was super tasty, except for the prosciutto part, which was extremely salty and inedible. We also ordered the Chicken Salad Sandwich and Caramelized French Toast, both which were phenomenal. Here are the deets of the dishes: Bull 's Eyes Slow Roasted Eggplant. Sunny Side-Up Eggs Prosciutto, Tomato Sauce. Chili Flakes Chimney Smoked Chicken Salad Sandwich Sultanas, Almonds, Watercress, Croissant Caramelized French Toast Vanilla Cream, Orange Blossom, Honey.

The food and service really really impressed us. We were the last table sat for lunch so we had the entire restaurant to ourselves. A bit awkward as it was very very quiet but the staff were extremely attentive, friendly, and did not rush us at all. We enjoyed the drinks, salads and entrees we ordered a lot. The serving sizes were large and flavorful, making the price worth it. We came for the view, and on a cloudy day, it wasn’t quite the coastal feel that other reviewers might have given you. Instead, with a view of the pool, the golf course, and ocean in the deep background, you get the vibe that you’re at a fancy cabin retreat. And that’s also fun but a bit more serious than coastal. Not...
