    Our service and food was exceptional. Hank was our head Server and he did a phenomenal job on Service. Chef Bernstein did a phenomenal job with the food. He is a great addition to your restaurant. Our server went above and beyond in telling chef about our love of the old macadamia nut pie dessert. Chef had macadamia nut ice cream and made us a deconstructed pie. It was so nice and such a treat and boy did it take us back. For our Server to go out of his way to tell the chef about that was really unbelievable. We are regulars and are never disappointed

    It is always a treat to visit Coldwater Cafe! Today was exceptional! Our server gave us time to chat before ordering and continued to fill our mint tea glasses without asking. Our food was delicious and fresh. My friend had the chicken salad and I had the steak salad. The bread is a great addition with its delicious taste. We had plenty of time to talk and eat without pressure. Lastly, the dessert! My friend had the peanut butter fudge cake and I had the carrot cake. Oh my! Both are the perfect ending if you have a sweet tooth. Wonderful day! Thank you Coldwater Cafe!
