| - The Courier mystifies me. It's always packed. People say they love the food. They think the building is charming. But the decor seems more tired and limp than it does charming and authentic, and the place is very loud, and kind of dirty. The menu looks like it has appetizing, if plain, selections, but the food doesn't taste like anything and there's so much of it on the plate that after a while you begin to feel as though you are in a fight to the death with it. I've heard people say that it's diner food, but it tastes more like reheated frozen dinners. It looks like food, and sometimes it smells like food, but inexplicably, it doesn't taste like food.
The service is serviceable. The bathrooms are appalling. The salad bar is puzzling. The four times I've been there, I've found it rather difficult to get cashed out. After which, I've been surprised at how much cash I've just spent.
