To say that the well-hyped ambiance leaves a lot to be desired is a massive understatement. I have to hand it to the photographers who took the online pictures that you see ... it isn't anywhere close to those colorful, texture-enhancing photos which you see. In fact, you just feel surrounded by campy, dirt-covered walls with a contrived finish.
Another quick tell-tale sign is the furniture at the bar and the seating tables. I think they picked up their chairs and bar stools from a Bob Evans fire sale somewhere in central Ohio. But at least it matches the dime-store silverware you get which comes neatly wrapped in a cheap paper napkin.
The food is okay, but nothing to write home about. In a nutshell, La Caverna suffers from an identity crisis, and was a let down to say the least.
Pros: Affordable, decent food, nice owner
Cons: , Furniture, Clientelle
