Before the closure the cafe was beloved my locals, many of whom left glowing Facebook reviews. Here's what they had to say:

• My husband and I had dinner at the Pearl Street Cafe and it was absolutely wonderful. We had the soups, tomato and a French onion, Hearty and tasty.My husband had the chorizo Burger, said it was delicious.
• Love the eclectic menu. Had a hard time deciding what to get for lunch. We went with the Bulgogi beef tacos and the Cuban. Both were delicious and loved the super skinny fries
• The chef puts pride in his food and it shows. Everything tastes fresh and made to order. A simple menu with a street food feel from various parts but executed well. The bulgogi tacos are wonderful.
