Crest Cafe

Frommer's Review

This old favorite is a great refuge from sleek designer food and swank settings. The cheery pink interior announces 1940s style, and the room bubbles with upbeat waiters and comfort food doled out on Fiestaware. The church-pew-like booths are comfortable enough, but the small stucco room doesn't do much to mask the near constant clang of plates. No matter: Burger-lovers will fall in love with the spicy, rich "butter burger" -- a dollop of herb butter is buried in the patty before cooking (it's even better than it sounds). And the East Texas fried chicken breast crusted with hunks of jalapeño peppers is none too subtle either, but it's tasty. A variety of sandwiches and salads, the popular steamed vegetable basket, and broiled chicken dishes are healthier options; breakfast of omelets or crème brûlée French toast is a happy eye-opener.
