Food: Taste rollercoaster

Mustard Cafe & Grill attempts to display culinary creativity by substituting in prosciutto for ham, however, this move does not warrant any applause. The inconsistency in taste is alarming, with some dishes exceeding expectations while others are reminiscent of cafeteria food. Value for many customers is non-existent as the dishes are overpriced for what they offer.

  • Okay Quality

    Generally good quality, but inconsistencies in freshness have been noted.

  • Bad Value

    Overpriced for average food; not returning due to poor value perception.

Vibe: Lacking a pulse

In spite of having an inviting, clean and chic ambiance, the buzz around Mustard Cafe & Grill is comparatively dead. The jazz and cultural music do add to the entertainment, yet the small wine selection and excess use of window papering leave a lot to be desired.

  • Great To Entertain

    Fabulous jazz and cultural music enhances the dining experience.

  • Bad Drinks

    Small wine selection, nothing else notable about the drinks.

Perks: A maze to park

The parking situation at Mustard Cafe & Grill is extremely subpar with guests finding it tough to locate a spot during peak dining hours. Additionally, the limited menu variety and reluctance to accommodate dietary needs adds to the growing list of customer complaints. The fact that kids no longer eat free is another nail in the restaurant's coffin.

  • Easy To Hear

    Quiet with relaxing music, perfect for conversation and ambiance.

  • Okay Service

    Mixed experiences with service speed, but staff generally found pleasant.

  • Bad For Groups

    Service slow for big groups, may dampen the fresh food experience.
