Noah used to be very nice , now that it’s popular they have went down on quality for quantity.

I was there celebrating my bachelorette and had the time of my life. The 12pm DJ was amazing!!!! I read so many reviews about the food and they were all bad. I have to be honest the food was great!!!! The servers kept the Mimosa and Bellinis flowing, the food was plentiful and delicious. We partied from 12pm - 3pm non stop dancing, bottles and hookah. The dancers and robot was a great touch to a fun show. This is the best brunch I’ve ever been to. We even stayed for the 3pm brunch and it was packed!!! Every table was filled but i have to say the 12pm DJ was my favorite! The DJ had my entire bridal party swag surfing which was so much fun!

We walked up to check in for our reservations and they told us, they didn’t not have any food available at the moment. We were very confused on how it is a restaurant but did not have any food. And they also expected us to pay $50 for the brunch without giving us food.

We had a brunch reservation for 12:30 and once our waitress came by, she told us that the only entree we could order off the menu was pasta and there was only one pasta and sauce option we could have. I was upset there was only one thing available but I ordered the pasta. Me and my friend ordered the calamari and flatbread as appetizers but the pizza to me tasted like pizza you would get at a skating rink, bowling alley, it was just ok. We did not like the pasta. 15 minutes after our pasta arrived, I noticed that the table next to us had different entrees. The manager let us choose a different entree but I really didn’t think the brunch was worth $50. Overall, I would give it another shot because the vibe was nice and the service was good but, I wasn’t impressed with the food we ordered. Next time, I’ll come to brunch a little later.

The vibes was 10/10 but the food 2/10. The entertainment was amazing!! The music, robo guy, the hookah all made up for the bad food. The avocado toast was horrible, the steak was cold and the mimosa was mainly orange juice.

Restaurant was closed!!!

Overall was a good experience however make sure that you specify outdoor seating when you reserve your table, if you would like to be near the DJ and entertainment. Also be careful with “free” rounds of multiple shots provided by your server, management adds it to the bill with the expectation that your party will pay for at-least one round even though the table did not order them.

Loved the food, friendly staff and good ambiance. Highly recommend

This meal was one of the worst meals that I’ve ever had in my entire lifetime. And I’m not joking or exaggerating. The place is essentially a nightclub and the food is completely secondary. When I approached the hostess, I asked her what food she would recommend. She immediately stated that she doesn’t eat in the restaurant and she made a face that implies that she does not like the food. This was my initial impression of the restaurant. My next experience was watering flatbread pizzas for my children. The flatbread pizzas were dry and tasteless which is really hard to do. I then ordered wine. First I asked for a Chianti which was on the menu. They were out of Chianti. And then asked for a Pinot Noir. They were out of Pinot Noir. I then asked for any red wine. They brought me a Cabernet which was extremely warm. I then ordered a chicken marsala. I was subsequently notified that the kitchen was out of chicken marsala. and then ordered the hanger steak. The hanger steak came and it was cold and tasteless. In addition there was a side sauce which was Inedible due to being so hot and spicy. Furthermore, the sauce is served in a small plastic container the deli would use. lastly, my children and I ordered ice cream. We were told that our choices were chocolate strawberry strawberry or vanilla. My children ordered chocolate. We were subsequently notified that the kitchen only had vanilla. Reluctantly we had vanilla ice cream which was clearly store bought ice cream. My waiter was an extremely polite and hard-working gentleman. I did not have any issue with him. I then received the bill which was $150. I was shocked at the cost. Clearly the restaurant is masquerading as an elegant restaurant and serving horrible food at inflated prices. Clearly they should concentrate on only being a night club and selling massive bottles of alcohol. The manager who is polite and attentive offered an apology only.

They need to include on the website that they don’t serve ANY food aside from avocado toast, flat bread, or summer salad. You’re basically $40/$50 a person for mimosas instead of an appetizer, and entree, like they advertise online. You’re drinking bottomless mimosas with ZERO food. Probably would not come back
