Cafe Erica

Was nearby for work, needed to eat lunch and was tired of fast food. This place was a hidden gem! Great Italian food, soups, sandwiches, pizza, even pierogis! Excellent coffee, which I usually don't drink. The staff was very friendly & helpful, especially when I said I'd never been there before. The whole place was very clean & neat, including the restrooms. I'll definitely stop here again when I'm in the area!

The food was good however, the staff was rude. I had also applied for a job there, and they threw out my application after I left. I have short hair , and I'm a girl and I see that as discrimination. I wasn't impressed with the staff. When you go to a cafe, normally you want to feel relaxed. I was quite unrelaxed while eating there.

Usually Cafe Erica has the best pizza in town, but recently their quality has changed, or the person who makes the pizzas is no longer there...and it compromises the taste and look of the pizza. The last pizzas we got were floppy and extremely thin. They had more toppings than crust (which some people may like) but the crust was basically non-existent. We couldn't even pick up a slice without it falling into pieces. And a few weeks ago the crust was completely burned, and we should have taken back the pizzas for a refund. Also, the salads are not very good here. Caesar dressing should have garlic in it and not taste like ranch; and the croutons were just old hoagie rolls drenched in vegetable oil. My family will return I am sure, but I find that things really need to improve or they will lose customers.
