I perused some of the other reviews & can see how some of the negative reactions could happen. I dined on a Sat. nite @ Brick Cafe' w/ my bf. He ordered the seafood chowder to start & the veal for his entree. I ordered the Caesar salad to start & the gnocci w/ gorgonzola cheese sauce. I liked the bread brought to our table while we were deciding what to order. If the service is slow there, then my bf & I are superslow b/c we were so busy trying to narrow down many delicious sounding choices that we couldn't decide on & our server was sweet enough to indulge us 'til we finally ordered the 3rd time she came to our table where we were already enjoying a btl. of wine. Not a gnocci fan, I truly only ordered them b/c the Gorgonzola cheese sauce reminded me of an Italian trattoria back in my hometown that was served over cheese tortellini, so I had to indulge that yearning for that creamy Gorgonzola zip. The gnocci covered w/ the sauces was so tasty that I actually really enjoyed the gnocci. My bf loved his dish as well. I thought it to be quite flavorful as well. The entire place was hoppin' & you could see it was hectic, but we'd gotten a decent seat on the covered patio. All in all, we had a really pleasant xperience & will prob. go back again.
Pros: Awesome Gorgonzola Sauce, Reasonably Priced Btls. of Wine
Cons: Busy, Crowd Noise
