Despite this, Celeste is a lovely place to have an inexpensive, high quality meal, and even though you are likely to be inches away from the nearest table, a little wine and some candlelight makes for a romantic ( though quick ) meal. more»

Despite the tiny size of the space the waits are not terrible - your meal here will be relatively quick even if you are having courses as this little spot is in high demand - so don't expect to have a long and leisurely meal. more»

Celeste Restaurant's Ambiance - Select Comments

If you do n't mind paying cash ( Celeste accepts no credit cards ) and sitting jammed in with a great many loud people in a very small space , you're in for a culinary delight. more»

It is true that the service is rushed and the place is crowded ( it is very small ) so I would n't recommend the restaurant for a romantic date or a first date. more»
