Despite fawning over the quality of both the food and the service, Yelp user Rose M. unfathomably awarded The Flying Goose a less than perfect rating. “The Pumpkin Ribbon Pasta was cooked to perfection and topped with organic goat cheese that had just the right amount of tang,” she writes, showering praise upon a dish that somehow was not good enough for a five-star rating.

“For dessert, I was expecting to get a run-of-the-mill chocolate lava cake. What I got instead was a gastronomical experience for the ages. The texture was truly superb. What a godly treat!” writes the person that incomprehensibly deducted one star from the restaurant.

“If there’s a better restaurant on the eastern seaboard, I haven’t eaten there. Every dish was absolutely perfect. Utterly exquisite. Simply sublime,” writes Rose M. of the “immaculate” and, puzzlingly, four-star bistro.

Rose M. continued her review of “the oasis in a culinary desert” with her thoughts on the “all-star” staff. “Staff was wonderful. I asked to sit by the window, and they went out of their way to accommodate me,” describing the courteous act that inconceivably did not earn a fifth star.

She added, “There is nothing wrong with this restaurant. I couldn’t have asked for a better night. Definitely coming back.”
