The food at Cafe Paloma is excellent; a great break from the food in the Pioneer Square area. My only criticism is the service. I fear for Cafe Paloma's future if it isn't improved. On multiple occasions I've gone for lunch and had embarassingly poor service. This was a serious issue when I brought business guests and the waitress informed us ""I am not a very good waitress"" which turned out to be true. She confused orders, forgot some, and we had to remind her how to wait the tables. This happened with more than one waitress! On almost all occasions lunch took more than an hour--which is startling considering that much of the food is pre-made. On two occasions, they had no chicken, which is a key ingredient in over 40% of their menu. Go for lunch but budget your time. The food is worth it.
Pros: Hummus , Panini , Price
