GLUTEN FREE WAFFLE.

They said it couldnt be done. They say gluten free is out if style. We say GLUTEN FREEDOM.

Also id reckon these gluten freedom waffles are better than the industrial kind most restaurants pass as "homemade".

Crab Cake Benny is back! We made enough to have it all weekend!

Made with Blue Claw crab meat, seasoned with old bay, and a crispy panko exterior. Minimal filling, just crab! Topped with our daily scratch made hollandaise (not the pre-made "hollandaise" that every single other restaurant uses)

Hey guys this is my buddy Andres. One of the best parts of owning a restaurant is having the chance to meet so many wonderful people, and this guy is at the top. His heart, his passion, his love for his family, history, and philosophy have no bounds. I hope that he stays on this earth forever, to guide us, keep us grounded, cultivate joy, and help us focus on what matters.

That's what this guy has done for me. Reminded of our humanity and beauty. How important good conversation is, and listening to each other, and attacking life with a zeal and gusto only seen in previous generations. Thats Andres. He taught me all of that over a couple dozen conversations in the middle of the restaurant. He brought me back to presence, and what matters. Even now that he is fighting cancer, the man still seeks and generates beauty with eyes hungry and deserving of 10 more decades. This is the lesson he shares, life really matters, go after it. Dont give up. He sure isn't.

You may not be in a situation to donate, he never even brought it up to me, I found the gofundme randomly on Facebook, just remember to hug your friends and go easy on each other. Andres, Abby, and young Ari you'll always have a home here and thanks for brightening our doorway and blessing me and the entire team at Lucy.

Fresh Baked Brioche French Toast

Its like if French Toast and Cake had a baby 👶

Order one or two pieces plain, or try it topped with whipped ricotta, crushed pistachios, and orange zest.

From scratch. No shortcuts.

Social media is waking up to the reality that most restaurants are the same. Using the same pre made foods. We've been here 5 years cooking it like the grandma's used to.
