This is a bustling, loud, crowded brunch spot, but the menu is terrific and both the food and service were terrific. Virtually everything you can think of as a great brunch dish is on the menu, and everything was exceptional. A bit loud to have a serious conversation, and there were definitely some screaming babies (unchecked) that made being happy a challenge, but the food and service made it worth a bit of suffering.

The Cappuccino was really good just the right flavor !! We can't wait to go back try more of the menu!!! Good Value for your money nice portions... But the best part is smiling Staff!!!!

I have been here on a few first dates this place is perfect for meeting someone new! Itâs classy soft jazz playing in the background so sexy. The food is also AMAZING! The appetizers and entrees are scrumptious. Iâm a dessert person so I tried the pear tart with ice cream... OMG DELECTABLE TO SAY THE LEAST. Oh and I cannot forget to mention the service is very professional and knowledgeable. Once again hats off to the chef! Still looking for my last first date.

Went Tuesday for lunch. Sat in back atrium area. Pleasant with lots of natural light. Also outside patio seating available in good weather. Server was very nice and efficient but not especially attentive and restaurant was not crowded. Hamburger was very good and waffle fries were excellent.

With its fantasy exterior and interior, a visit to Chit Chat is a unique experience. Incredible light fixtures, colorful booths, decor upon decor. It's hard to describe. The food is generally good; just stick to diner-style food and don't go overboard by choosing their fancier restaurant-style options, which can disappoint. Portions are large and the staff is very friendly and service oriented. Each table is provided with a deck of conversation-starter cards to get the chit chat going. Prices are on the high side for a diner, but this isn't your typical diner.

If Raymonds isnât already legendary...trust me...itâs well on its way. Loving chosen ingredients make each dish perfection...a dance of beautiful flavors and textures to make your divine experience one youâll never forget. Waitstaff is ALWAYS attentive and hustling! The Norwegian eggs Benedict is gorgeous...I wish theyâd return to offering the dish on the potato pancake rather than English muffin. YOU MUST HAVE their chocolate pudding. Iâve dubbed it âJesus puddingâ because itâs so good...youâll see Jesus when you eat it. Donât leave without a package of homemade marshmallows...Be prepared to wait for a table...noise level is no joke on weekends...still worth the trip!

My fiance and I are getting married here in April so we tried out the restaurant. We went to the Sunday lunch buffet. I honesty thought there would be more of a selection for lunch but it was still good. They had shrimp, omelette maker, french toast, bacon, sausage, penne vodka, chicken dish, some soups, slice ham, turkey, or pork, some vegetables, fruit, mini bagels, etc. I thought there might be more chicken or pasta dishes. They had a great dessert buffet... so many options. The food tasted very good. There is a dress code and people go all out so definitely dress business casual... no jeans, no sweatpants, no sweatshirts, no hats, no shorts. Some people did wear jeans and sneakers but mostly everyone was overdressed. Wearing leggings and a long shirt with boots I actually felt under dressed compared to others. Pricey but the ambiance is fancy.
