On my first visit to Owensboro, this restaurant was recommended to me as the BEST restaurant in Owensboro. But the reality is that it doesn’t live up to the hype! Having visited this restaurant more times than I probably should have, I have found their dishes to be inconsistent. Some of items are excellent, while other dishes are either very small portions or not as fresh as you can find elsewhere. As an example, their butternut squash soup at the “Taste of Owensboro” was the best of the show — but it’s no longer on the menu. However, we’ve found their steaks (Ribeye) to not be the freshest cuts.
Service? Yes, you’ll get great service at the Pangea Cafe and you will find some great items on the menu, but you’ll have to experiment and try a lot of different items and most likely you will be disappointed by quite a few before you find those dishes that might, just might keep you coming back.
Roger’s Tip: At the Pangea, ask for the chef’s recommendation for your entree making sure that you specify that you want the freshest tenderest items on their menu.
