Had my wedding here. It was everything we wanted. Amazing venue, they even agreed to our pizza buffet idea for dinner. And wow they made good pizza!
Good food, decent price, and great setting. A bit noisy and Sunday and Saturday mornings can have a 20 minute wait, but there is a nice waiting area with seating. I usually walk over, about a mile, so it is a pleasant wait when it happens

Went for Sunday brunch because it was such a nice day. Arrived about 11:00 to find out a lot of people thought it was a good idea. There was a 45 to 60 minutes wait, but they will text you when your turn comes us so my wife and I spent a pleasant hour strolling in the English Gardens. The fall flowers are out and it is a beautiful spot for a nice walk.
We got the call, and were seated. The menu is not too extensive, but nice and basic brunch items, they have added beef brisket since my last visit and my wife had the Eggs Benedict with brisket while I went for the brisket sandwich. Both were tasty and the meat was done nicely. The hollandaise sauce had a slightly different taste to it, something extra we were not used to and could not identify, but it went well with the meal. The sandwich was not quite enough so I added a side of their potato fries, very nice pan fried potatoes with a bit of caramelized onion. Bottomless coffee and great service. I'd go again, but maybe a bit earlier. When we left about 1:30 there was a very long lineup to get in. Lots of cleaning and sanitizing between customers and of course, POV and masking enforced.
Yhe biggest appeal of this place, at least for me, is the location and view. They've done a great job with place. The food is done well, but because of the crowds, don't expect a quick in and out. If you want a seat, it's best to arrive early, otherwise expect a wait. The staff are attentive and helpful. I appreciate that they try to implement locally sourced ingredients into the food. The saskatoon jam for the toast was stellar.
