Editorial reviews from the web (2)

Don't let the exterior fool you: behind the boarded-up storefront hung with an illuminated Pepsi sign is an exemplary restaurant. The formal dining room upstairs, the lively bistro downstairs, and the cozy mezzanine in between share a French-influenced menu that has Pacific Rim and American Southwest touches. The heated patio and urban terrace are also lovely dining spaces in fall and spring....

We've had the pleasure of eating at C&O on a couple of occasions and each time has been sublime. I think anyone could find dishes they would like as their menu has some traditional choices but also very creative choices. Everything we've ordered has always been cooked perfectly and seasoned well with good balance.
The building itself is very interesting....
