Stopped in here for brunch on Sunday. They have an excellent bloody mary bar (3 different mixes, lots of hot sauces and mix-ins), and standard, well-made brunch fare. Service was good, and they seated us promptly. Would probably come back if we were back in Galveston. Do wish they had more vegetarian options.

Went for brunch Saturday morning at 10 am.  No wait at all.  Very nice views from the front and back patio, and the inside seating is very nice.  Cool little cafe/market.  The jalapeno cheese grits were the bomb, biscuits and gravy were also great.  The only thing that let me down is that they didn't have liquor, so I couldn't get my Bloody Mary fix.

The views on the Oceanside from the side porch are 5 stars. The quality of food is 4 stars. The best chicken and waffles I've had. I have been 3 times now and every time we go there is some issue preventing the waitstaff from giving us 5 star service. Not sure what it is exactly but if the service was improved it would make this place a 5 star destination. I will continue to visit with hopes that enough people bring the lack of great service to the owners attention and a slight change is made.

This place is awesome! Super cute interior, lovely outdoor porches. Food is outstanding - gourmet brunch options. Steak Benedict was decadent & delicious. Perfectly paired with fresh squeezed mimosas! Highly recommend. We drove all the way from the west end & it was totally worth it.

This establishment has some "quirks" to work out before I'll visit again. 
It took 20 minutes to get us seated despite having empty tables inside and no wait. We chose to sit inside as it was sweltering hot outside, but inside was muggy and warm as well. 
It took 10-15 minutes before a waiter noticed us and thought to ask if we had been helped yet. Then another 5 minutes just to get some water on the tables. 
They have some drinks listed on the menu that they can't serve you as they have no liquor license to do so. We were excited for a few options and then disappointed when we learned they're there just for show until the license is obtained. 
When it came time to FINALLY order they had run out of one of the dishes everyone at our table had ordered, so then we had to look through the tiny menu again to pick something else. 

The food tasted great and didn't come out cold or with any other issues. The problems lie mostly in the wait staff, wait time, and availability of menu options (which could have been avoided had the wait staff said something upon seating us before we ordered!)
