I have never even noticed that. My daughter lived across the street from Café Ole for about three years while in school.

Cafe Ole is awful, it amazes me that they've stayed open as long as they have. good patio though.

The only thing I ever liked there was the bacon wrapped scrimps.

I thought this was about Jim, but then I remembered he spells it differently.

Go across the street to strano instead. All of their food is excellent and they have the best charcuterie plate in the city - young chef who gets his stuff flown in from italy.

Blind date with woman who became my wife there in 92, wasn't bad then. Had daughter's college graduation party there in 07, rented the patio. Last time I was there.

Cafe Ole got a new owner, an I had hoped it would get better...they have a nice patio...serve a good margarita...and the bacon wrapped shrimp are solid...everything else kinda sux
RE: Famous Trestle - JTiger - 06-17-2015 10:25 AM
Ole sucks. So many other good options within walking distance.
