    If you go for the bottomless champagne/mimosas be sure to check the buffet for small glasses of watermelon juice. A waiter made me try this and it is fantastic!! So much better than a mimosa.

    I don't think anyone knows how in the heck to eat it at first, it's a weird food. But, on bread, it should be a big difference, hopefully :)

    Question: How much tip would you leave per person on average? I know it all depends on service, alcohol, brunch, dinner, etc. But would $5 tip per person per $50 price be sufficient?

    The Wicked Spoon is my favorite!! I always find at least one dish I really like (seconds? Thirds?) regardless of the meal. My favorite thing for dinner is the Shepard's Pie whenever they have it. Mmm.

    Brunch is delicious. The mimosas are good, and I like that they get creative with some of their offerings as opposed to offering the usual "pancakes, eggs and sausage" that you tend to see at most buffets. They had some vanilla polenta thing I had last time that was amazing! And the pancakes are great too. :)

    Ok, I just went thru this thread because I also want to know if the Wicked brunch was good. Only about4-5 people answered that. The rest talked about bone marrow. How was the brunch and what are some of the items besides bone marrow? Thanks. I want to try it.

    I went to their brunch last September and was surprised by the lack of crab legs, or a seafood section altogether. I understand it was just that day as this is normally served but it really was unfortunate to not be notified ahead of time. Our server was very nice, but couldn't give a concrete reason why it wasn't there. Again, likely a one off problem but sorta clouded my view of their brunch offerings.

    The food we did have was good to very good. Certainly worth the price. Higher quality than most offerings in town. Definitely not only "safe" offerings either, they had excellent options for the adventurous eater. The bottomless mimosas were a good value.

    I'd go back again for sure, just wish there were crab legs the time we went!

    I love this thread. I went to wicked spoon last June and thought it was different. All the separate dishes kind of annoyed me. Not enough that I am not going to try it again for brunch on my next trip out. We are doing it for Mother's Day. I'm excited about going.

    I've eaten there several times. They are apparently famous for their mac n cheese... thats the one dish I don't care for there. But I am not a big mac n cheese fan. Everything else has been fantastic.

    This is one thing I love about it! I like the little pots and dishes with small servings in. It encourages me to take smaller portions so I can try more a variety of things.

    Sorry, I do want to mention that I've only had dinner there. Not Brunch. But the food quality I would assume is the same- I just can't speak for the variety at Brunch.
