Q: positive

A: My boyfriend and I have been coming here for over 2 years now. Even before it started giving Groupons. Ever since they've introduced Groupons, we've taken it every time. The decor and music hasn't changed in all these years but the food keeps on going through changes. We have enjoyed every time since the staff is busy handling a full house but is friendly! Upto the point and good swift service. Food: we indulge in the appetizers. They are small in size but tasty. Sushi is decent as well! I love this place and would continue coming here..

Q: positive

A: I've been going there for years. The place is small but the atmosphere and service make up for it. Fries served in a mini shopping cart. Good option for non burger eaters. The grilled cheese is pretty good. Tip: Order your burger a step more done than you normally would.

A: . My group had lunch at the Cafe at MIM for the first time and I have to comment on the beef with radicchio and potatoes. The beef was chewy,tough and with sinewy marbling. The server brought my piece from the back kitchen dunked it once in the juice and then placed it over the vegetables. The chicken entree in cream sauce with mushrooms was tender and wonderful, as was the "poppy" wine selection and cookies. If you plan to eat at the Cafe be cautious when ordering beef selections. I wrote to the MIM on my experience but have not heard from them. MV ASU Downtown Campus

Q: negative

A:
Curse you Harris Teeter on Central for being the only sizable grocery store within walking distance of home! If wikipedia is to be believed (if!) this store is the first Harris Super Market built in 1936 (this is before the great Harris-Teeter merge of 1960, of course). This probably explains not only its fantastic location (which is rather awesome), but its numerous ailments: - Dingy look: yah, I'd say it looks about 75 years old! I never understood the impact of environment on my shopping experience until coming here. - Cramped conditions and narrow walking space: It is hard to get around, particularly if there is someone standing ahead of you. It may be that the original designers may not have considered the wheeled shopping cart (which was also invented in 1936). Perhaps one-way lanes in the store could remedy this? - Sub-par selection: this is the worst. If I have to go to other grocery stores just to get what I need... why bother coming here? Overall, in another 25 years this store would qualify as a history building (I think). Please get a move on that renovation else Plaza-Midwood will be stuck with you for a long time. I give two stars because the location rocks and because you do actually sell food. You are lucky that your slogan, "Your Neighborhood Food Market", makes no claims about being a Supermarket, otherwise we'd have some problems.
