    Was nice I just don’t think talking politics at the bar is suitable when we have this climate of the country right now when especially when it comes to RACE/HISTORY. Other than that I had a wonderful night alone. Let’s try to monitor our spaces so everyone is comfortable.

    Absolutely one of the best dining experiences we've had in a long time. We booked our reservation on the spur of the moment as we had other dining plans that we bailed on because the restaurant was overly touristy and noisy and ridiculously priced. Midtown Cafe saved our evening. We are pescatarians so it is always a challenge finding more than one seafood entree on menus these days, so we were thrilled to have a variety of seafood items to choose from. We started with the mussels as an appetizer, which was cooked perfectly. My husband ordered the sea bass and I had the trout. Both dishes were delicious and artfully prepared. Cocktails were excellent and priced fairly. Our server, Carol was phenomenal. A true five star pro -- attentive, friendly and totally on top of everything. The cozy ambiance made for a perfect evening. We are grabbing some friends and coming back very soon.

    This establishment seems to be a well kept secret and has never let me down (maybe 15 times over the last 5-6 years). The food is excellent Americana, the service is professional but friendly, and the prices are fair. I am not a drinker so I cannot report on the wine list but I never have heard anything negative from my wife and friends.
