    So fun! Our waitress (Shona) told us the story of the beginning of the restaurant. She also gave us great recommendations. We loved all the food and I loved the Margarita Swirl. Was a great time with my husband of 44 years.

    Food was great. Service was on point. Atmosphere is excellent. Prices are a little outrageous, have gone up a little too much. Would love to go more often, but if the prices keep going up, I will go to a different restaurant.

    The Cafe never disappoints. We visited today as our office Christmas lunch. Everyone was pleased with their selections. A couple got dessert to take home, and we had enough space for all 7 of us at our reserved table. the noise level was a big high, but not so much as to be offensive. Its just harder to carry on conversations at a large table with an abundance of ambient noise. The food was good, parking is easy, reservations are quick to set up. We will return!
