Cilantro is a seventy seat upscale casual style restaurant, with an additional fifty seat enclosed patio and veranda.   Surrounded by white lights above in the trees and our luscious Virginia Creepers, Cilantro remains the casual, cozy and quaint atmosphere that we have been known for twenty years.

Chef Ken Canavan is the creator behind our menu, which has an unconventional Californian-Southwestern flare.  In addition we offer daily and nightly features with our specialties being flat bread style pizzas, homemade pastas, along with many different appetizers, salads, and entrees, something to suit everyone's tastes.

Cilantro offers an ever-changing extensive wine list of 250 wines by the bottle and features up to 25 different wines by the glass.  We are also proud to be a recipient of The Wine Spectators "Award of Excellence" for our wine list from 1996 through to 2005.

"Cilantro Restaurant, one of the city's perfect patios – Unconventional southwestern seasonings are the specialty of this eatery.  The upstairs lounge is decorated in rustic wrought iron and natural wood.  The open kitchen boasts a wood-burning oven for pizzas and other dishes"
