The prices are reasonable.<br /><br />I spent a long time talking to the owner, Mary Hostetter, the day I took this photo. She is Catholic and was kind enough to purchase a copy of my book; she was delighted that we included photos of churches in the southern part of the Archdiocese. I liked that she placed the book in the waiting room, so that customers could look at it.<br /><br />In many ways, the Blue Owl is delightful in that it transfers the character of a good ethnic European family restaurant — think Italian, German, or French — and enculturates it to American cuisine.Mark S.
