   We were seated promptly in the bar area for dinner. Service was great. Our orders were taken immediately. Two of us had fish specials and one had pasta. One of the fish dishes was a bit overdone but one was prepared well. Pasta was very good also. Our meals in general were tasty, with generous portions. Desserts were also great, I had mud pie and one had pear crisp. Only complaint world be acoustics of bar makes it distractingly noisy. Otherwise CC is still a great place to have a meal. Great job!

   We are locals and always have a good lunch there. But today the food came out. It was cold. The fries definitely had been cooked and old oil and the mocha fudge cake. Dessert definitely had freezer burn. I know it will go back, but today was not a good experience and the woman that checked me in I had put on a reservation. I wanted standard and she put me in the bar and her response was oh you’re a barfly! Not a necessary comment. I just didn’t feel very welcome today except by the server Erika she was on fire as usual.

   Great service but was seated in the bar area for dinner and it was so loud my friends and I were unable to have a conversation. This was disappointing as we choose this restaurant because we felt it would be quieter yhan the other restaurants we were considering. Probably won’t return.

   This is one of my favorite places for a special lunch with friends on the patio, a quiet dinner with my husband or a celebratory dinner with family. The food is always delicious, the ambiance is charming and the service is great.

   The food was excellent as usual. We asked for a quieter area so we’re were seated in the garden room which was great. Nice ambience and cozy with patio heaters. Our wait person was very attentive and efficient and friendly and our delicious food came very timely. We enjoyed the complimentary birthday Dunday.

   We were all pleased with our food, we were there to celebrate a birthday. It is a loud restaurant if you have some hearing loss. We had a quieter corner table and also the outdoor heated patio is much quieter.

   For our table of six, we had great service. The food was excellent for all of us, just very noisy for this very popular restaurant on a Saturday evening. Will go back, though!

    Cafe Cruz is the best. So many local restaurants have raised their prices considerably but Cafe Cruz has not. If they have raised their prices then it’s not enough to be noticeable. The food is consistently good and portions the same. It’s my go to place to take friends and/or family for a few decades.
