3.7
I came here for lunch last weekend and enjoyed it very much.
The atmosphere is nice, clean and modern. I almost felt a little under-dressed considering I was wearing running pants and a sweatshirt but oh well. The servers were very friendly the lunch menu offered a good variety.
I ordered a salad that had a thin-sliced of grilled chicken breast on top...it had goat cheese, cranberries, pecans, etc. It was very just enough of everything and the dressing was a nice vinaigrette that added just enough flavor to the meal.
I also tried the butternut squash soup and that was good. It was everything it should have been, creamy, comforting, a little sweet but also savoring. It was very good.
The man ordered a burger that came with applewood smoked bacon and fries on the side. The burgers are made to order and very fresh. It was a good burger! I was surprised but it was juicy and hearty. Well done.
My ONLY gripe is that I think they are a little overpriced...especially their lunch menu. My salad ended up being nearly $13 and really there wasn't much to it. We walked out of there spending what we normally would for dinner. I think it is perfect for a nicer lunch with family or friends but to just stop in for a quick bite...you leave feeling a tad bit merked.
All in all I like this place. Matthews isn't offering a whole lot these days so I am glad to have Cafe 157 as an option.
