Not a five-star restaurant but the white pizza is actually quite nice and the sodas are good and bubbly. The black-and-white cartoon room is my draw and it is indeed delightful. See old classics like Al Jolson singing, old crooners as cartoons, Betty Boop, and the original Donald Duck. A visit here is like going back to the 70s decor-wise, and the magician reminds me of the simple wonders of childhood before I learned about war and famine and hate and everything was just rainbows and PacMan and unicorns. I've heard it's slated to close; please say it ain't so! Crystal's makes a great date adventure. Price can't be beat, games are nostalgic, and prizes are chintzy fun. Don't miss the ghosts in the meeting room and the cards on the ceiling in the library room.
