Gracie's 21st Century Cafe

Gracie's is awesome. I stumbled upon them accidentally - thought it was a coffee shop - and met a date there. Needless to say it was a most memorable date I ever had, so much so that I later proposed marriage there and my wife and I were even married in the garden behind the restaurant. Gracie, the owner, is super smart, a world traveler, and a loving owner who brings world flavors to the area in a truly unique setting. Almost always there's a place to sit for a wonderful dinner--its a well kept secret worth exploring at least a few times. And for a special event she is knowledgable and willing - she even planted her flower beds to match our wedding colors. Gracie has become a dear friend to us and even though we live in CA now we make time to stop by for dinner when we're in town.

I am always so impressed with the special food preparation that Gracie offers.  The food is fresh and outstanding in flavor. Thanks foot the special accommodations you always make.

I'm surprised to find two mediocre ratings for Gracie's on Yelp.
I work in Manhattan but our office has a headquarters not far from Gracie's and this is the go-to spot for people visiting the PA office. In fact, my boss now plans his trips according to Gracie's Wed-Sun schedule.
I had my first Gracie's experience last week and I was not disappointed. The wine and food menu is extensive and the food is delicious. I shared the bacon wrapped shrimp (huge shrimp right off the grill- and you could taste it!) and the seafood crepes (delicious). I enjoyed the crepes and the cream sauce so much that I decided to order the crab and shrimp pasta dish modeled after the appetizer. It was fantastic. I'm told the Jamaican crab bisque, filet mignon, and duck are also delicious.
My "spliff" dessert was amazing! (Apparently Gracie is a huge fan of Jamaican culture.) It was a fried tortilla oozing with melted chocolate over ice cream. Without a doubt, I will order that any time I return.
More and more in life I am finding that you get what you pay for, Gracie's being the perfect example.
