Hideaway is definitely fitting as the entrance of this gem is quite unassuming. While we waited in line for the buffet down the hall, we decided to find somewhere else that was quicker and we were not disappointed!

We came here for the all you can eat brunch and the style here is passed butler service. You’ll get your own “butler” and get to try each of the items on the menu. They’ll walk around with the food and you can decide to take a plate or pass. The service here was top notch and were attentive to what we wanted or haven’t tried yet.

We each had our own preferences on food but overall each dish was delicious and filling. My favorite would have to be the ham and egg sandwich and the wings

Comfort food at its best! The chicken cheesesteak was heavy and delicious. I added the option of Swiss and provolone cheese to make it even more savory. The bread was also incredibly soft. I also swapped out the fries for tater tots and those went really well with the spicy mayo dip

Place is small and has low ceilings so it can get quite loud. We found ourselves having to shout across the table to hear each other. The service here was below average and we felt like the staff doesn’t really care.

We tried the watermelon soju and it was refreshing however I think we saw these watermelon bowls being reused so I’m not too sure of how sanitary that is.

There were some good pints though. The rice cakes, kimchi fried rice and army stew tasted like the classic dishes and were flavorful. The army stew was packed with lots of meat.

Food was not bad and it was a good selection of food but a bit on the pricier side. We really liked the chicken tagine. The Israeli couscos was addicting. The bucatini dish had a nice flavor to it but the pasta was a bit overcooked.

This was my first time having Japanese small dishes. Lots of options to choose from and all reasonably priced. I really loved the cream croquette, fried squid legs and takoyaki. All were savory. Great decor as well and I like how the old classical music played over the megaphones. Wait can get long quickly and service can be a little slow but the food is worth it! Lastly, the Kenka special drinks were really good. Can’t go wrong with any of them
