Really great experience. The wait staff was amazing, (shout out to Nishelle!) Chicken and Waffles were fantastic. Very crispy crust with a delicious honey sriracha sauce. The rest of my party also enjoyed their meals. 10/10 will recommend.

I loved the passion fruit guava French toast and the complimentary biscuits. I thought the menu could've had more "magic", the only "magical" item was the waffle shaped like a Mickey (which you can honestly get for free at any hotel offering breakfast in this area of Florida. Even then, the chicken and waffle looked plain? It was literally a piece of fried chicken on top of a Mickey waffle. The cutest menu item is probably the fruit bowl (with sorbet) decorated with flowers. My m
