A review of the cafe: Rather pricey for a casual lunch but the food is great!

As for the museum, I have been here once or twice and I really enjoy the exhibits.  When the museum is busy it can be difficult to get around due to the layout of the exhibits.  Most of them seem to be set into little "pockets" of larger rooms, and it makes it a little tough to get through when there are a lot of people.

I've sampled the Benethiopian wares a couple of times and loved it!  The Berbere Beef and Injera were both fantastic.  Everything I've had from their truck has been delicious.  Nice touch on the moist towelette as well.

The truck has been on a long hiatus.  Hopefully they will return soon!

I had the shish skewers, which were awesome.  The GF had the mini meal (chicken).  Everything was delicious and wonderfully finished off by their home made ice cream sandwiches.  I'll definitely be visiting again.

Had the Chicory Stout (seasonal) and the mac & cheese with steak.  Both were delicious.  They had live music on this particular night, which was a nice touch.  A solid 3-3.5 stars.  Nothing crazy over-the-top good, but nice reliable food.

I had a hankerin' and Pho 14 set me right with a large number one.  I also had a thai iced tea which was decent.  I'm new to pho, so I don't have a whole lot to go on but everything was good and the service was fast.

Love this place!  I'm there all the time.  Where else can you eat sushi AND tater tots, plus watch cheesy martial arts/old sci-fi movies?

Start off with some edamame and tots, then on to any of these: Summer Sashimi, Millennium Roll, Fantabulous Amazing Roll, Sticky Balls, Godzirra, GI Jane & GI Joe rolls, Spicy Salmon rolls or Chicken Sesame

This place is awesome.  I've gone many times for lunch and the pick three meal is always superb, and is pretty cheap.  The butter chicken is probably my favorite, followed by the chicken vindalu and the lamb or goat curry.

The mango lassi is also delicious and the staff is aces.

The food was so-so.  I had a blue cheese burger.  It was decent but didn't blow me away.  That would have been fine but the Guiness was served in a chilled glass.  I'm picky about my Guinness being poured properly.  Fox and Hound used a chilled glass, so they lost a point there.  Other than that, everything was good, and the price was right.  I'd go back.
