What User likes about Why Cook?:
The quality of the food is excellent, but the service can be inconsistent. While calling ahead doesn't always guarantee a quick start, I experienced a delay when I called this morning. Despite being told it would be a 10-minute wait, I arrived 15 minutes later and then had to wait a few more minutes before my food was prepared. It's worth noting that I was the only customer at the time. Overall, I would give the food... View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Why Cook?:
I would not recommend the beef gyro wrap. The meat was of low quality, the bread was not right, and the tzatziki sauce was lacking in flavor. The service was brisk and somewhat impolite. The atmosphere was pleasant and cozy, but I think I will opt for a different dish on my next visit. View all feedback.

We had an event catered by Why Cook Cafe on 9/12. The staff was extremely accommodating to our requests. All of our guests were impressed by the delicious food!
