• The location is convenient.
• Every thing is way over spiced!

“Alonti Cafe is in the building where I work. It's convenient and would normally keep me from having to bring a home made lunch to work. Although a bit pricey, I assume the price is for the convenience of its location more than for the quality of the food offered. I consider it to be relatively "average" in its cafeteria-type cuisine and atmosphere. Over the last year or so, however, prices have gone up and sizes of portions reduced. And for some reason now, every soup offered is spiced so hot that it distorts flavor and irritates the palate. I have no idea why the gentlest of soups, e.g., Italian wedding and vegetable soups, have to be so "hot" with spices that it becomes aggravating. There are other spiced dishes available (and usually a hot chili is offered along with a soup of the day) and even those are usually over-spiced, but soups should be a "peaceful" alternative to those who don't want their taste buds catching on fire. Now even soups aren't safe. I believe that home made lunches are going to win out now. Or I'll just walk across the street to Subway. I'm really disappointed that I can't even get a small cup of hot ("from heat") soup to comfort and soothe on a chilly day. What few taste buds have survived will have to find comfort elsewhere, I'm afraid.”
