After reading the great reviews, I decided this would be the place to celebrate my first birthday in Washington. I was looking for a hip, upbeat, romantic restaurant. My husband and I made reservations to ensure us seating, since the reviews said it is quite a busy place. We were quite pleased to find parking right across from the restaurant. As we walked up to the restaurant, we could see through the windows there weren?t any other customers. We weren't sure they were even open. We went in and were promptly seated, obviously being the only couple there. I really didn't find the atmosphere very romantic. It wasn't dimly lit and there wasn?t a candle in sight. The menus were printed on folded paper. I ordered a Panini that was quite bland. We decided to stay for dessert because of the great reviews. We had the banana & nutella filled crepe. It was very good; I was however disappointed I couldn't have a glass of wine with it due to the lack of a liquor license. I would recommend this place as a great place to have lunch but not as a place for a romantic birthday dinner.
Pros: Parking, Service, Prompt seating,
Cons: Not romantic, cocktails not available
