I used to go here almost once a week for two years until today. I went early with a friend and got breakfast and coffee and studied (for a medical board exam) for 3 hours until the owner came up to our table and asked us to leave saying he needed the tables for his busy lunch hour. (He came up to us at 12:30 by the way.) We were shocked because there were 6 empty tables open, 2 long tables open and 2 people in line waiting for food! I called and spoke with the owner after that because I was shocked that he would ask (especially with so many open spots!) a regular paying customer to leave and his response was very non-chalant... as if he didn't really care how he treated us nor that we would never go back. He also commented that we should use the library for studying because he couldn't understand how someone could study there. Must be nice to be such a "successful" business owner that you could careless if you turn a regular customer away for good. Then again, I am sure he is so successful that my negative word of mouth recommendation doesn't bother him either.

We enjoy their desserts very much, especially the delicate chocolate bomb, unusually good Russian tea cakes, and large cookies. We also like their coffee cake and lemon squares. A few items, such as the bread pudding and layered torte, taste like they've been sitting in the case too long. Sandwiches and salads are very good, too. The room is warm and convivial. Servers are good, but rarely smile, and seem depressed most of the time. They are polite, but act like they don't care if you are there.
Pros: Great desserts, Ample parking, Lovely space
Cons: Bland service, Some items stale
