Syrup is a newly renovated, popular brunch destination known for fresh, generous portions and creative takes on classics—crunchy chicken-and-waffles, praised eggs Benedict, seasonal specials, coffee and mimosas. Friendly touches and celebratory surprises win fans, though experiences vary: some diners rave about food and service while others report bland or overcooked dishes, missing items, billing mistakes, and rude staff. Expect a lively, sometimes noisy atmosphere and inconsistent service during peak times; great for family breakfasts and celebrations if you don’t mind occasional hiccups.

Excellent food! I haven't had anything here that I didn't like! My husband think they have the best eggs Benedict in town. We have always had excellent service and the owner always comes around to talk and find out about our meal. It is newly renovated and everything looks great and is super clean! Even the bathrooms.
We came here while in town for a friends wedding. We stopped here for breakfast. Our waitress was so nice I wish I had written down her name to mention her. We went on the earlier side and were able to get a seat right away which was nice. The menu had a lot of good options and some good variety of breakfast things. We ordered a scramble and avocado toast. I wish my toast had been a little bit more toasted, it didn't seem like it had been warmed or toasted at all. The breakfast potatoes were pretty good and we asked for them extra crispy. Our drinks were also pretty good. Overall, I didn't think it was amazing but it was a good place to stop and grab a big breakfast before being busy all day in the area.
Excellent service; Tansy was fantastic! She regularly checked on our drink levels and ensured we had everything we needed. The food was served quickly and tasted amazing! The only challenge was deciding what to order!
I stopped by for breakfast while my dogs were at the groomer. I ordered the Mile High Omelette, which looked beautiful when it arrived, but when I cut into the center, it was raw. Honestly, five eggs is excessive; three or four would be more reasonable. If you want to substitute fruit for the potatoes, there's an extra charge of $2.00, which I find to be quite overpriced. However, I must mention that the staff was very friendly.
The food here is fantastic, although the decor feels a bit bland. I always order the raspberry mascarpone pancakes because they are truly delicious, especially with the delightful lemon curd on top! The service has been excellent during my visits. It tends to get quite busy on the weekends, so I prefer to go during the week.

Last month, I visited Syrup Restaurant for the first time, and I was impressed by the excellent service and delicious food, along with generous portion sizes. The food was so good that today I decided to call and order three pancakes. However, when I spoke with a gentleman on the phone, he informed me that the total would be $11.00, which comes out to over $3.66 per pancake. Don’t you think that’s quite pricey? Other breakfast places I've been to only charge about $4.50 for pancakes. I’d really like to hear from someone in management about how three regular-sized pancakes can cost so much.
The food arrived much quicker than I anticipated, but I'm not sure if that's a good or bad sign. The Classic French Toast was quite underwhelming—not anything special, and definitely not worth the price given its simplicity. However, the Vanilla Latte was good. As for the other dishes we ordered, which included scrambled eggs, potatoes, mini waffles, and chicken waffles, the overall consensus among my group was also "just okay." The restaurant has high ratings, so perhaps some of the other meals are better.
The food was fantastic and unique, and it came out quickly. The waitstaff was friendly and attentive, but the atmosphere was just average. I gave it 4 stars mainly due to the price; while I don't mind paying for quality, it just isn't practical to dine there regularly. There are cheaper options available that offer comparable food.
Highly recommend! Fantastic service and accommodations for my son who has autism. The assistant manager who was working at the hostess stand checked on us multiple times to ensure we had everything we needed! Speedy service and high quality food. I highly recommend the arugula salad with burrata and loaded potatoes… kids meals were huge! We will return frequently!
I have heard great things about Syrup and our visit completely lives up to the hype. The food is fresh, very hot, and delicious. They have the traditional breakfast items plus a wide range of unique options. We shared the classic potatoes pancakes and apple sauce. My husband liked the Cluck Cluck and I really enjoyed the small Chicken and Waffles (enough food for two meals). The chicken was sooo crunchy and moist and the waffles the perfect crunch. Loved their specialty made sweet cream syrup and the Tequila Sunrise Mimosa. We each easily have another breakfast we are taking home! Great service and we didn't wait too long to get a table at the height of Sunday rush. We will definitely be back again! Only small negative is it is very loud. ?
