I went in not knowing what to expect. Well actually, I went in expecting great desserts and snobby crappy service. I was wrong about the latter. I didn't get his name, but my friends and I, walked in about the time some police officers where outside asking a man to move on as he was loitering and once we went in, the server was pretty busy. As we were looking at the menu, he was handling some irate teenagers who were angry about something. He was being very apologetic and calm. Turns out these little brats where upset with him because he would serve one of them alcohol with his fake id. The server was friendly and not worried that we had come in a half hour before closing. He kept a smile and made us feel welcome...as if we were old friends. I go on and on about the service because I find many places here with terrible miserable people giving you a terrible miserable experience. I've been in the service industry for over 15 years, so when I find a place which has a good product AND good service, I make sure to spread the news. If we had gone in and the food was good but the service was snotty, rude, too-cool for school, and such, I would have never gone back. I've just had it with bad service and have made a very black and white stance on the whole issue....even if a place allows even one bad server/barista/cashier...whatever. Enough about that. The desserts were obviously rocking and thecoffee was excellent. It was expensive. Whatever. You know what you're getting into. I recommend getting vanilla ice cream on your Queen of Sheba Truffle Cake when offered. Will be back! Thanks Awesome Pix Server!
Pros: desserts, service, late night
Cons: small uncomfortable stools...I don't care how small your butt is
