I never post in these sites...but the review before mine prompted me to do it this time. The China Cafe is so highly rated by other members here BECAUSE of the service the owners and staff provide. I know not everybody will love the food everywhere they go. I happen to really enjoy the food at the China Cafe. In fact, I trust that the food will always be great....so usually I'll show up, sit at the bar, and will take the special of the day or I will have Kelly whip something new up. I personally think they have the best Chinese food around.
But...it is the service that really makes people return to the China Cafe. The owners, Kelly and Susanna, are so friendly and social. You could come in just one time, and they will greet you by your name the next time you arrive. If you stand by the bar for 5 minutes....you will realize that almost everyone there is a regular. That is a fact....most people that go to the China Cafe are regulars who have been going for years.
I brag about the China Cafe to everyone. I've even had my family drive from over an hour away just to eat there. Again...you could have the top rated restuarant in the nation, and you will find somebody that doesnt' like the food. And would bet that is the case with the previous poster. It just wasn't for them. But the overwhelming consensus here is positive for the China Cafe.
Pros: Bar, food, service, atmosphere
Cons: Price
