Next up for #StrollerFriendly review is Italian Food Import at 1114 Blanshard!
(*Note that this is a retail-type establishment, and therefore I am applying the retail standards, rather than restaurant standards.)
Access: Not bad. There is a slight incline next to their door, which makes getting in and out a bit tricky. However, once in, there is just enough space to move around. When I went, the place was fairly crowded, and I had no space trouble.
Food: Stellar! I had the Rocky Balboa toasted sandwich, and it was just the right combination of spicy, fresh, salty, savoury, and a little bit greasy (in the good way). LOVE that sandwich.
Service: Great. Fast, hard-working counter staff processed the long line in no time. Very friendly, even when the baby started getting really fussy.
Cost: Great -- my sandwich (not huge, but filling and tasty) plus an Orangiata came to under $8.
Baby-Friendliness: Very good. Bustling atmosphere, friendly clientele who were eager to help with doors and chairs, and who were very kind when baby started freaking out while I was midway through my sandwich.
Overall Grade: A
An easier door would catapult this retail-food jewel into A+ territory.
Next up -- a cafe that saved my sanity! Stay tuned for the whole story...
