This past weekend we had the treat of visiting St. Ann restaurant and bar.  I had heard about it but had never been.  We actually were scheduled to visit the weekend prior but canceled due to rain.  I had my heart set on dining on the patio.  So we waited.  Best decision ever!! St. Ann is right behind the American Airlines Center.  They have complimentary valet so no worries about parking.
                                                         

It is an old Catholic school building converted into a beautiful restaurant with a full museum on the top floor.  I took a peek in when I went to the ladies room.  It had museumy stuff in it! (Yes, I made up a word!)  I didn't go in.

We chose the backside of the patio with cushion booth like benches.  It was a nice day out with a little breeze.  They have you covered just in case you catch a little chill with portable heaters.

Brunch is from 11-3.  We sat down right at 2:55.  Our waitress advised if we hurried we could still get the brunch menu.  So we hurried! I ordered the omelet with bacon, sausage, tomato, spinach and mushroom.  I would have ordered onions but I was sharing with my 6 year old who despises onions! I know, just crazy.  Hopefully he will grow out of it so I can stop using the chopper to disguise them when cooking!

Oh, I forgot my drink order.  Well what goes with brunch?? Mimosa of course! No complaints.  I'll say I enjoyed since I had two!  

My omelet came piping hot, it was served with fried potatoes.  This was a treat for me.  Remember we rushed to beat the clock so I didn't even know potatoes came with it!  It was DA BOMB!  It was also very filling! I was sharing, it was plenty food for the both of us.

After eating our brunch we just hung out on the patio and enjoyed Dallas weather.  This is a great place to hang with girlfriends as well as dates.
I enjoyed my food as well as the atmosphere.  It is not a cheap date kinda place so make sure you check the menu before going. My total was $34 but I did have two Mimosas.

All in all my experience was great!  I will be back.
The Elevator!  Yes it has a fricken elevator!

We have been out and about eating out again! So this Saturday we decided to have brunch in the city. Tameca chose Saint Ann's restaurant. Bravo on her choice! This restaurant actually used to be a catholic school...how fitting for two former Catholic school girls!😄

We walked up to the beautiful patio with strung lights and music playing, a more casual feel than dining inside which was very nice as well. Of course you can choose the bar for a more casual indoor feel and well of course drinking!

We brought along Tameca's youngest son, so we chose the patio, but anytime it's beautiful out we choose patio dining!
 
We were just in time for the brunch menu! 
I ordered the steak and eggs which came with yummy potatoes! It's a ribeye, two sunny side eggs, ranchero and house potatoes for $28
I thought my steak would be a little better for the price, but I'm not going to lie... I was starving, so down it went!
 
After eating we stayed and chatted for a bit, business matters of course....but then we noticed a waiter moved our outdoor heating lamp and it was starting to get chilly out! Umm is that a hint or are we not just as important as the people you were moving it for!?! Wow! 
 
Well we had to visit the ladies room which was upstairs where there is also a museum...super cool!!
The restroom was two chicks approved as well.
 
Overall, I really enjoyed my dining experience and the atmosphere was a great big thumbs up!
 
 
I will be coming back for dinner very soon. I love the city and its right next to the American Airlines center, among other things. Don't you just love Dallas!
Until next time...

I am giving Saint Ann's
