| - I'm still mad--but not at the restaurant! I had finished my review, then realized I had not "signed in". So I signed in, and *poof* my review disappeared. Why in the world it would leet you do all that only to have it all disappear is beyond me. I was so mad I quit posting on Yelp for awhile!
Now on to Crystal and Jules. I have a pretty firm rule. That rule is premised on there are so many restaurant to eat at and so little time, it makes no sense to go to the same place twice. I have a few exceptions to this rule, usually based on low costs, good food, and interesting entree's. Crystal and Jules is a new edition to the list of eating there twice. Heck, if it were in town, I'd probably eat there about every day. I know I would tonight since I am herre alone.
What makes it so good? Small, intimate casual ambiance. Reservations are not required but highly encouraged if you want to make sure you get served. A full liquour license andd tasty cocktails. Then there is the chef. He often meets you at the door and discretely finds out if there are any special dietary needs and assigns you a waiter. The waiter sees you to your table, and starts the ordering process. The menu items have a heavy concentration of seasonal vegetables. Everything is prepared to order, and everything was impeccable.
Definitely worth the second, third or fourth trip back.
