$25 for a trio of crostini with avocado mash & a single poached egg is not a good value. Consider it’s the same price as a monster plate of chicken & waffles, you could at least make this “avocado toast trio” a little bigger!!

This was my first time at The Brass Eye. The menu was very limited, however, I knew this going in as I looked at the menu online. I decided to order just appetizers. I attempted to order the short rib but they were out of that. Then I attempted to order the bean soup. They were out of that too. Lastly, I tried ordering the sausage appetizer and they were out of the Bavarian pretzel that accompanied it. Our waitress was super sweet and apologized for being out of everything. I was disappointed as I ended up with a $30 steak frites, my son a $26 hamburger and a $12 bread appetizer (which was amazing). I still don’t understand how my bill was $93 as I only ordered one cosmo. Assuming my math is right, that would be a $25 drink.

Had a beautiful time. Awesome drinks. The short rib app was Amazing! (A bunch of people came in at the same time as us, so things were a little slow, but it just gave us more time to enjoy the view!)

We made reservations for a larger party, when we arrived we were told someone had over stayed. We could wait or try a lounge table. We were treated like it was our issue that the table wasn’t available. It took 15 minutes for someone to bring us menus and take our drink order. Just not a pleasant experience.

We sat for over 30 minutes before our server even greeted us. Then another 25 waiting on drinks. The service was horrible and the food we had ordered for main dishes were over cooked. The appetizers were good though. Definitely not worth the 300 dollar bill we received after the bad first experience we had.
