These reviews present Café Eden as a beautiful, welcoming spot with chic decor and a lively, relaxed vibe, a terrific terrace and reliable service that many describe as friendly and attentive.

Reviews of Anna Pizzeria highlight generally friendly service and tasty food, with many praise for the pizza and reliable delivery, though there are notable remarks about inconsistencies. The service is often described as excellent and the main dishes as very good, with clean surroundings and friendly delivery staff mentioned.

Several patrons note that the menu items like pitas, fries and subs can vary in quality, and at times portions or garnishes are lacking. A number of reviews mention that quality has declined over time, particularly after the holiday season, while others recall a long standing habit of ordering with little disappointment.

The restaurant is compact with limited seating, so takeout is common, though dine-in is possible when a table opens up; the food is noted as arriving hot and tasty and is generally good value. A few comments mention occasional misses such as dumplings lacking soup or uneven results for vegetarian options, and the warm indoor space can feel a bit cramped, but these drawbacks are outweighed by overall quality, freshness, and quick service. Many reviewers call it a hidden gem and among the best dumpling spots in the area, with plans to return and recommend it to others.View restaurant profile

Reviews of Muffin Plus indicate a mixed experience: high prices and food that is not always fresh or well executed. Dishes are noted to use day-old ingredients and can be dry, pastries are poorly proportioned and muffins can be bland when fruit is missing. Sandwiches are decent but the bread is also dry. The concept is praised for creativity and potential, yet execution falls short, with pastry quality highlighted for improvement to surpass the standard of a typical big chain bakery. Service is impeccable.View restaurant profile
