| - Guess we tried it on a bad day (Monday). First big turn-off: the toilet in the unisex bathroom was disgusting, old dried urine all over the porcelain, obviously not cleaned that day. Then discovered that the woman parked a few inches away at the closest table to the bathroom is the owner! This is a very tiny place, and she barely looked away from her computer the whole time we were there, except to take phone calls and discuss business matters within earshot of her guests, none of whom she acknowledged or welcomed, so I guess she wanted to remain anonymous. Apparently (hopefully), she hadn't seen the filth in the only bathroom. I consider that poor management.
Food was also a huge disappointment...tried the Monte Cristo sandwich, and it was flattened to the point of being unrecognizable, like the thinnest panino imaginable. (Panini on the menu I think.) The young woman caring for customers, and I presume preparing the food, was very pleasant, but obviously not trained in what a Monte Cristo is supposed to be. Flavor was ok, but more like eating a rubbery pancake than a sandwich. Coffee was ok, but certainly nothing special. I try to be positive, so should mention prices are reasonable for a cafe, but this nicely decorated place is much more like a fast food operation, and negligently managed, so we won't be back.
