The first time I went to Black Pearl was for birthday dinner with my girlfriends. Dinner was great and I loved the room so I brought my husband, a Chef, for brunch. After having a great dinner experience I thought brunch would be awesome. Surprisingly not so! \r
The coffee was watery and the potatoes tasted dehydrated, like chewing on foam. We both ordered eggs with Hollandaise which was also tasted like air. The muffins were floppy. The Bloody Mary's were average but the brunch is pricey! We spent $40 bucks for two when we could have had a spectacular brunch for $24 down the block. The music they were playing made us feel like we were at the gym, which made us want to leave immediately, and not partake in any more drinks. The waiter was slow (there were hardly any customers and three people, including our waiter, behind the bar putting away glasses), and the hostess was spending an inordinate amount of time sitting at a table chatting with friends. So after our nothing tasting brunch we couldn't get anyone's attention for our check. I had to walk up to the bar and ask for it. The only thing we liked was the butter. We will never go there again!
Pros: nice room
Cons: bad food & service
