Elizabeth's Cafe Heaven Description:
Tom and Elizabeth Ellis are the owners of this little restaurant on East St. inside a blue and white house. Their menu mostly emphasizes international appetizers, a handful of pastas and daily specials that might include authentic bouillabaisse, Tuscan white bean stew or braised ribs.
The decor is not fancy. It runs to colorful art prints, snapshots of family and friends, a few beautiful travel and cookery books, a few fanciful mobiles.
Glass-topped tables, paper napkins and a hodgepodge of china might not appeal to those in search of swank, but they are fine for the people of all ages who come for the generous food, reasonable prices and genuine welcome.
The open kitchen is the heart -- and most of the ground floor -- of the place. Tom Ellis reigns there by day, doing most of the cooking, and Liz Ellis takes over at night, finishing the dishes and keeping them moving.
Most of the tables are upstairs, and it is a testimony to the staff's dedication to hospitality that they are unflaggingly friendly even after all of those trips up and down.
Main courses include pastas and whatever meat/fish item looked good at the market that morning. The desserts are various flavors of cheesecake made by the nuns of New Skete in NY.
The food style is eclectic world food, focusing mostly on Mediterranean dishes. As far as alcoholic beverages go, they offer wine only.
They do not accept credit cards.
