"We decided to try Kraku's restaurant for lunch. It is a real authentic Polish restaurant. This family-run restaurant was in operation for sixteen years, with Mom working in the kitchen and daughter waiting the tables. When we arrived, we were immediately welcomed and set. The restaurant is clean and spacious because of Kovid. There was a lunch. Everyone seemed to be present. When we ordered our drinks, they were served immediately. Our waitress took our order of tomatoes and Zurek soups, Pierogie, Polish samplers and Hungarian Gulasch. The soups were served hot large bowls. Both were rich in taste. Next came the Pierogi. A dozen pierogies of 6 potatoes and cheese and six sauerkraut and mushroom with sauteed bacon. Next came the Polish sampler consisting of, filled cabbage, keelbasa, hunter stew / bigos, pierogie, potato pancake. It was served with a lot of sour cream and apple sauce. Try to add sugar to them for a delicious variant. The potato pancakes were crispy and thin for another delicious treat. The potato pancakes were fried, but not oily or greasy exactly right. This plate is more than enough for two if we know that we would not order the other plate. Now the Hungarian goulash with perfect combed beef was served in a sauce between two potato pancakes like a sandwich. You have two sandwiches. I thought the beef was overcooked because of the small beef pieces. I would recommend a larger beef. The prices were reasonable and the service was attentive and courteous. There are street parking and they have a private parking lot. It's worth a trip. Oh and yes, they have a liqueur license with a wide selection of Polish beers."

"I think I just don't have luck at restaurants named Agave. While the place looks cute, its lack of flavor (or just basic seasonings like salt) make this a place not worth visiting. I appreciate that there was Valet because there is limited street parking and their lot was small. My husband said the valet was rude, but I didn't witness it myself. We were a very large table, so while accommodating, service was very slow and we probably should've had two dedicated waiters vs the poor nice waitress who was completely overwhelmed. Drinks were OK, but everything was watered down and there are no prices on the drink menu. I think we finally ordered appetizers about an hour after we arrived( and entrees about 45 minutes after that). While there was a nice presentation the food was terrible. The cheese fondue, has zero flavor (honestly you couldn't even tell there was cheese) it was a soupy thin mess with chewy shrimp inside. I kept trying to figure out the flavor, and I assume they didn't make the flour mixture in it correctly. The chips they brought out with it were stale, and nothing like the chips we had with a snack (although they never refilled them and we had a tiny helping to share between 6 people. We also split tostados, which looked good but still lacked flavor, even the crema was bland. Since I could tell how the food was I opted for a burrito bowl, but was still dissatisfied. Overall while it may be cute for a birthday, you are better off going to chipotle where the food is much better and at least the service is fast. I have photos but they aren't even worth it to post."
