Owned by husband and wife Jason and Rosa Harrison, Lush Café and Lounge has announced the opening of a new upscale dining experience, inspired by the magic of music and cuisine.

"We’re creating an environment for those who love brunch and fine dining,” Rosa Harrison stated in a press release. "Lush is a place where guests can not only enjoy exceptional elevated comfort food and weekday brunch but can also immerse themselves in live music and an upbeat atmosphere.”

Lush Lounge and Café is located off W. Elliot Road and W. Grove Parkway. The space features marble countertops with chandeliers throughout, creating the perfect ambiance for a date night, family dinner, happy hour and more, the release detailed. Featuring a back patio with more seating, the lounge is excellent for mingling with friends or savoring brunch or evening comforts.

More than a restaurant, the lounge offers live music Wednesday through Sunday every week, according to the release.

Guests can enjoy the stimulating energy of brunch or indulge in fine dining with dinner entrees. Lush Café and Lounge offers a “By Day” menu that features staple brunch items from 11 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. daily. Beginning at 3:30 p.m. guests can enjoy a handful of shareables and the “By Night” menu is from 5 to 10 p.m.

“Our dishes are inspired by Southern cuisine and flavor,” Jason Harrison stated in the release. “We have created an experience that provides the energetic vibes of brunch but also taps into elevated dinner options. This is a space for adults who enjoy music, fine dining, and a vibrant atmosphere.”
