Not sure what the ""hype"" is about? 4/1/2010

I had heard of this place for years... and finally tried it out for dinner with my hubby. It was nice inside, the staff was friendly and I loved the character of the house... but, it was a bit cramped and noisy for dinner. My food was alright- nothing great- but my husband did like his Rubin sandwich a lot... so, we tried again for breakfast a while later. It's breakfast- how hard can it be to get right? Well.... again, great staff and environment... actually much quieter at breakfast time... BUT... the food was horrible! I couldn't even eat it. Which never happens. I ate the biscuit cause it was ok- the egg scramble was nasty- dry eggs, too much olives, forgot my avocado and just didn't taste good at all- the potatoes were ok, but bland... needed way more spices!!! I was really disappointed cause I love the location so much... and was hoping to find a fun, romantic place to go with my husband... guess we'll keep looking. Maybe it was just an off day? I'd stick to the dinners if you go... side note: they did comp one of our breakfast meals- which was nice, but expected when you don't eat it ;) Pros: Lovely location, friendly staff Cons: the food more
