Castle CafeIt really does look like a castle, complete with tower and crenellated roof. The dining rooms are cool, sleek, and quiet, and more tables are on the patio in front for alfresco dining. The kitchen cooks credible versions of all the Middle Eastern specialties, using fresh ingredients of good quality. Every lunchtime brings a three-course complete lunch special for well under $10. You're welcome to bring your own wines, with no corkage fee charges. They also have full catering service for any kind of event.
