Just more proof that this place is not up to par with some of the good cafes in the hood. Personally, I'm not a fan at all!Foodistahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00927382832751244890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7143504259352442230.post-18611484717042221932008-11-19T09:40:00.000-05:002008-11-19T09:40:00.000-05:00Well i had brunch with a girlfriend at kafene and i had a pretty wierd time.The food was good but the places was dirty and very tall waiter smelled like he was drinking.The places is cute but has a very unproffesional vibe and its been 5 different things in the past year makes you wonder.jenny360http://www.blogger.com/profile/16157764718684966312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7143504259352442230.post-3167722118826187292008-10-11T18:05:00.000-04:002008-10-11T18:05:00.000-04:00We happened upon Kafene by accident one evening after I had some dog training clients nearby. The service was friendly and the food delicious. We ordered the house red wine by the glass which was a generous portion. We had a goat cheese salad and crab cakes, and baba ganoush (eggplant salad) that was accompanied by delicious crackers, of which we wished there were more as we ran out! Everything was presented in a visually pleasing way and tasty. We will definitely go back. The only thing was that the music indoors was a little loud, but after several requests, the hostess got it down to a tolerable level, and never became impatient with our requests. The table service was very friendly, and our waitress chatty while being non-invasive and respecting our privacy, a nice balance. Afterwards we grabbed coffee and hit an art gallery in DUMBO as we were near to that area as well. Great location, nice restaurant.ny-njDogTrainerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07114572968261484098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7143504259352442230.post-72857214140246744932008-07-14T18:22:17.188-04:002008-07-14T18:22:17.188-04:00That sounds divine.
