Customer Reviews
I ordered the veal parmigiana. The red gravy was delicious and plentiful, as was the breaded veal. It served over angel hair past with a slice of cheese. (No kudos for the latter.) The meal came with cole slaw. I was very please with the portion size, the flavor and the price. The atmosphere is that of a neighborhood restaurant. You go there for the food, not the ambiance. I also ordered the spicy garlic bread. I like spicy, but I was not please with soggy bread that tasted more of hot sauce than garlic. The service was great. I would definitely recommend this cafe.
Probably the worst food I’ve had at a sit down restaurant. The chicken parmigiana poppy was rubbery and tasted like a banquet tv dinner. The “garlic” fries was just French fries with what tasted like crab boil, Tabasco, and ketchup on it. I expected more from a place that has been in business since “1921” but it was just expensive tv dinners. Do not recommend at all. I made it through the first poboy and even though it tasted bad and not worth $10 I wasn’t completely disgusted. Half way through my second half of the poboy the chicken was so rubbery that it was hard to even bite and I did not finish it. They call it first and last chance because after your first time eating here it should definitely be your last time.
This is the cafe' my father used to work at. I went back to feel his presence, I did. The place is kinda caught in a time Long since past, I guess that's what made it easy to feel him. I love those places where you can step back in time and know that it wasn't always like this, messed up.
Liked the place small been in business for a while nice people running the place
I stopped here on my way to New Orleans. I wish I had read the reviews first. The food is really not good. Even fast food is better. Don't waste money here
