Description

Eating at leisurely Café Monarch about as personal a dining experience you can have, next to actually eating at someone's home. You're really in chef-owner Christopher Van Arsdale's hands when you eat here, as the man does everything from cooking to dish-washing. There's a printed menu of Mediterranean-inspired appetizers, sandwiches, and salads at lunch, but don't be surprised if he asks about your preferences and goes off on a creative tangent — that's half the fun of it.
