Best restaurant ever!! Location, food, cocktails… Everything is amazing! And on top of that the service is wonderful! It’s so comforting and warming to receive a high level of customer service quality, being well advised and leave the place with a positive energy. We felt special, welcomed, full belly, and happy!

My friends and I came to 1212 for brunch today and I’m reviewing this place the day of because of how great of a service we received! Very attentive, goes above and beyond, consistently checks up on you to make sure everything is going and tasting well at the perfect timing, we got bottomless mimosas which is always a must for brunch and never a bad idea.

I had THE best time here for brunch and a big part of that was the E N E R G Y our server brought!!!!!! He came CORRECT and was so nice and funny. If you are looking for a Sex and The City esque brunch spot with great music this is IT. Came here for the food but will be back because of our server.

Happy hour, great music, outdoor seating, delicious drinks and food. It’s a vibe! Our waitress was fantastic with recommendations. Second time here and this is now my go to restaurant. They put a spin on your classic dishes and I always just want to dance. Cool wall art and a fun time. Come check it out! Great for bigger groups too.
