- Tuesday, 23rd June 2009The clean, bright and airy Ikea-like atmosphere (no smoking!!!) is what keeps me coming back to Mazagran. As far as the food goes, the pizzas are pretty good (there's one with cranberry that sounds strange, but is surprisingly good), the pumpkin soup is incredible, and there's a cheesy chicken dish (I can't remember the exact name) that is like Chicken Parmesan and a similar one with Eggplant that is delicious. I love that they come as meals with bread and salad. Also, the "Millionaire's Shortbread" is pretty much the best thing ever (a layer of shortbread, caramel, and chocolate).
- Friday, 29th February 2008I've only been there once, and while the food was quite good and it's not a bad place to people watch, the decor is absolutely sterile. All they need to do is put something interesting on the walls; maybe a plant or two would help. The 'no alcohol because it's a cafe' doesn't make sense, although if they have other reasons for not having alcohol that's okay with me, I don't have to drink everywhere or always.
- Tuesday, 26th February 2008Actually, it's a great alternative to most places, not just Salvador's. I keep trying different dishes and they're all excellent -- some, would easily win the just-as-mother-made award. The reason, not surprisingly, is that it is family-run with experienced, European-trained cooks. There is no alcohol (because it's a cafe) and no cigarette smoking. The huge open windows enable endless watching of the world going by.
