In general I really like the menu and the food at Cafe 56. I come here about once a month and haven't eaten anything I didn't like. For me, the inconsistencies seem to be the issue. As others have mentioned, sometimes I they are out of the pretzel roll for dinner. I usually eat a late dinner so I see how this could happen but it also happens frequently enough that I would think they could just start baking a few more. I've also had the wrong dressing given with my salad as others have mentioned and since I always get take-out I don't notice until I've arrived home. Today I ordered 1 to-go salad at lunch and had to wait 25 minutes to get it. And I even beat the lunch crowd there but it appeared that the staff (only 3 people at lunch, including 1 who was taking orders who must have been very new) was making carry-out orders from phone-ins. By the time I returned to my work desk I didn't have time to eat my food due to the long wait to receive it and my afternoon meetings.
