"First impression: Last time I was here, it was probably about 10 years ago, and it was absolutely amazing. The customer service was on point, and the ambiance was exactly what I expected. It felt cozy. The food was absolutely incredible. I had at that time strawberries with some peach on a crêpe, and it was awesome. My son had a savory ham and cheese crêpe, and it tasted great. This time around, I came with my daughter and my sister-in-law. We had Nutella crêpes with strawberry and also one with strawberry and banana, and they tasted amazing. However, I have to add that the customer service was not top-notch as it was before. Very negative at the beginning, first impressions. I would’ve left with the greeting that we received; the tone we were greeted in was not pleasant, and we were shooed away outside. Second impression, the same. My sister-in-law had a wobbly table, and her drink fell. I went inside to get paper towels, and when I told them about the incident, their response was less than satisfactory. Their remark, Oh, you made a mess? came across as dismissive and unprofessional. I answered, Well, yes, on your wobbly table. If it wasn 't for my daughter needing or wanting food, we would have left. In addition, the waiter behind the counter seemed very angry and didn 't seem to like what they were doing. It made us feel as though our presence and satisfaction weren 't important to them. We felt uncomfortable and unwelcome. On a positive note, our food waiter was very nice and attentive. He greeted us nicely and provided great service. If it weren 't for the unpleasant experience with the others, we would have had a great time. However, considering the overall experience, I won 't be returning to Crepes on Columbus. It 's a shame because the crêpes themselves were exceptional in taste and quality. But the combination of the unwelcoming attitude, dismissive response to the spill, and the lack of attention from certain staff members has left a lasting negative impression. I sincerely hope that the management takes these concerns seriously and works on improving the customer service aspect to match the outstanding food they serve."

"A quick Google search for LuMar won't give you much information about this charming eatery located in Old Town Monrovia. To understand the story behind its name, you'll need to speak with the owner, Dragica Grabovac, who named the restaurant after her two children, Lucia and Mario. They were teenagers when Cafe LuMar opened its doors in early 2012, and now, as the restaurant embarks on its ninth year, it embodies the spirit of a beloved neighborhood spot. While you might think that most of the menu isn't Croatian, that would overlook the rich influences that shape Croatian cuisine, which borrows flavors from various parts of Europe. One dish that proudly represents Croatian traditions is sarma, a delicious stuffed cabbage dish that's popular throughout the Balkans. At Cafe LuMar, the cabbage leaves are expertly prepared and filled with a savory mixture of ground beef, pork, and rice, all smothered in a delightful sauce. Another Balkan favorite you won't want to miss is ćevapi. These skinless sausages are always juicy and are given just the right amount of char from the grill to enhance their robust flavor. For a complete experience, tear off a piece of warm pita, wrap it around a sausage, and dip it in the rich red pepper ajvar. During our visit, our friendly server playfully noted, "You are not Croatian!" when they noticed that most of the raw onions remained on my plate. Apparently, this was a clear indication, as any self-respecting Croatian would have been asking for more."
