Was Angel Diaconescu at Café Jano a mag?
The food is outstanding, and the service is fantastic. Although they were temporarily closed, they have reopened with a new menu. My family and I really enjoy dining here. The food is top-notch, and the owner is typically present and very welcoming. Additionally, the location is convenient. I can't wait to eat there next week! View all feedback.

Delicious food prepared by the owner as an order. Wonderful atmosphere. Very reasonable prices. We've been diners for three years. Not another who serves this good and healthy food... although many comfort dishes are also.

This place is tucked away next to the community college. He's a nice man and has a fantastic business. BUT he needs help! He was the only one working the day I ate there. There were six of us and he prepared appetizers and all of our meals while other customers were dribbling in. Go try this place and if you know anybody who's looking for work, he's looking for a wait staff.

I visited the odd little restaurant while vacationing in Roanoke. It’s hidden from the main road and when I first walked in, I was underwhelmed by it’s simple decor. Also, it was understaffed with only one man working. However, once I tasted the food, I was blown away. My wife and I ordered lamb kabobs, and without a doubt, this was the best meat I have ever eaten. The entire meal was shocking in how good it tasted. The man who worked there and cooked for us was also very friendly and accommodating.
