What's the deal? Yummy or not? How the heck do you pronounce it?

    "Island Seas"I believe. So far, out of 2 reviews on Yelp, they have 2 stars, yikes.

    indeed: http://www.yelp.com/biz/island-cz-cafe-crown-heights

    I jabbered about how they appeared to not have their act together during renovation here: http://www.brooklynian.com/forums/topic/island-cz-cafe-743-franklin-corner-of-sterling

    I do hope they are just having opening glitches. Readers, has anyone been yet?

    I'm the one who posted the second review, and my 3 stars was being generous as I only ate twice so far. Hopefully they improve, will go back in a few weeks.

    The only positive over The Islands is space to sit.

    I have not seen any press, grand opening banner, or even menus littered throughout the neighborhood.

    When combined with no alcohol lic, they have an uphill battle.

    Janelle's on Washington continues to struggle, after opening in much the same manner.
