CHEDDAR SCRAMBLED EGGS with chicken date sausage, hash brown casserole and a side of Wexler's Deli salmon cream cheese and bagel chips
BLUEBERRY BOSTOCK* on a toasted brioche topped with almond paste *Vegetarian Selection
OVERNIGHT OATS with maple syrup, granola and raspberries. Served with a side of Wexler's Deli salmon cream cheese and bagel chips

Pre-order only:

BISCUIT SANDWICH with tomato, egg and cheese
JON AND VINNY'S CHEESE AND CHARCUTERIE PLATE* with dried fruit, toasted walnuts, and olives *Contains Pork

I went with the biscuit sandwich. I like tomatoes but for me it was weird having it on a breakfast sandwich (there was a single slice, not visible below because it's underneath the egg). Some form of meat would've been nice too -- I mean, it came exactly as it was described on the menu, so I'm not complaining in that regard -- just saying it would improve the dish, and there's already one vegetarian and one nearly vegetarian (if you don't eat the salmon cream cheese) option on the menu already.

Those minor quibbles aside, the biscuit was nice and biscuity and the eggs were pretty good too. Would order again.

As to the sides, I guess there was a sale on grapes. The salmon cream cheese and bagel chips were nice too. The menu says "croissant with market jam" but I put it on the sandwich

PDB: yes
FEBO: yes (though I pre-ordered)

BRAISED BEEF SHORT RIB with butternut squash and sage risotto, wilted rainbow Swiss chard, and roasted figs. Served with a side salad of burrata, candied sweet potatoes, harissa, cashews, and microgreens.
SPINACH, POTATO AND CHICKPEA CHANA MASALA* with basmati rice, wilted spinach, cilantro roasted cauliflower, and mini naan bread. Served with a side salad of burrata, candied sweet potatoes, harissa, cashews, and microgreens. *Vegetarian Selection
CHICKEN BREAST SALAD with Asian slaw, cucumber, cilantro, broccoli, green onion, shredded carrot, toasted almonds, and edamame. Served with a side of pineapple with togarashi.

I pre-ordered the chana masala. Drinks and a pass of the snack basket preceded the main meal, which was pretty solid all around IMO.
