I tried the Mexican themed buffet: the green chili and corn soup was very good, everything else was meh; and I stopped at one bite of the cinnamon cake. For $ 10.95 it’s far from value.
I agree with another reviewer that the espresso is excellent.
Off the menu items looked scrumptious, $ 21.95 for Steak and Fries isn’t too crazy for the portion I saw.
Not one server stopped by my table to check-​in, too see if I wanted anything else. :-(
…if this is a community center, it certainly didn’t feel very communal unless you look like you fit in. Nevertheless, it seems like a nice place and people look happy.

This is literally the only kosher stop in town but it is really worth it! They make food fresh and have coffee drinks that will rival starbucks. It is dairy most of the time but every Tuesday night they close the dairy kitchen and open for a sit-​down meat dinner. Pretty yummy come check it out!

Trying to keep kosher in this town of milk (in) challah? Well good luck with that. Whatever your affiliation you should check out the café inside the Mittleman Jewish Community Center. The food in the deli is very good, fresh and kosher certified. Dinners are a deal. I had an amazing wild salmon dinner with salad, roll and all for six bucks. They also have a buffet on Tuesdays. Dyenu. Hours can be confusing if you aren’t up on your shomer shabbas, but worth figuring out. Also, best challah in town here for sale on Friday mornings; chewy, dewy and dairy-​free.
