Eating on Castro street in downtown Mountain View next to the railroad tracks a few blocks down.
Came here with a "meetup" social group of about 8 people.
Order up front at the cashier, before entering the restaurant. A remnant of the pandemic, and a cause for long lines, as people have to make up their minds on what to order, before entering. 3.9% surcharge on all orders using credit cards. Fast food style ordering, and they still want the 20% tip. At least served with metal utensils and solid dishware, instead of paper plates.
Service was very slow, as got here at 452pm and not served until 530pm.
Prices on the steep side, with vegetarian crepes starting at $15, chicken, salmon and beef crepes at $18. Dishes come with lettuce and fries.
Wife's $16.95 Milano crepe was grilled eggplant, mushrooms, spinach, tomatoes in cheddar and mozzarella cheese and marinara sauce. Vegetarian dish, not something my wife a carnivore like me would normally order. I think she ordered it so that Anna, the vegetarian organizer, could sample a bite with knife and fork. Serving size only average as wife had no trouble finishing it, along with lettuce and fries.
My $17.95 Philly Cheese crepe had thin slices of beef, white cheddar cheese, caramelized onions, mushrooms. Went well with the delicious fries. Could taste the beef, an indication of a good portion of meat, not overwhelmed by the cheese.
Beef was tender enough so that I could eat it without two of my teeth, including a canine tooth missing, due to crowns breaking off at the gum line on root canal teeth.
This was June 23, 2023, a nice hot summer day, allowing us to eat outside. If you tried that today, you would be blown over by the high winds and soaked by the heavy rain waiting to order your food before entering the restaurant.
