| - I went here on a Saturday evening after 7:00 pm with my man. The place was busy but not crowded. We were seated right away in a lovely booth by a window. I loved the decor and ambiance. Everyone there seemed to be enjoying themselves. This was our first time here (we had a gift card). We told our server this and he let the general manager know. She came by our table several times to make sure we were enjoying our experience and we really appreciated that.
I never knew the place had a French theme. I heard "cafe" and figured it would have diner food, like a Denny's. The food is much more fancy than a diner. The food is French-inspired, so this was a new experience for us. The menu is in English but the food titles are in French. That made my man a little nervous but we pressed on. My husband and I are kind of picky eaters so there weren't a lot of options that we liked but we did manage to find something delicious.
They have a great deal - 2 for $25. Two appetizers, two entrees & a dessert trio to share. The have a fixed menu of items to choose from with this deal. This worked out well for us. We were stuffed by the end of our meal and had half of our entree to take home.
Appetizers: French Onion Soup for me, Caesar Salad for my man -- We both loved our appetizers. The French onion soup was thick and scrumptious, with nice amount of onions, a slice of baguette and dreamy melted cheese on top. My man's Caesar salad looked very nice and he liked it very much. I will post pics of these.
Entrees: We both got the French Dip with mozzarella added, along with fries -- The French Dip was very tasty, nicely sized and a good amount of meat. The fries were standard fare but tasty.
Dessert: The dessert is a trio, Cinnamon Apple Crisp with ice cream on top, Bread Pudding and a warm brownie with ice cream on top. -- The Cinnamon Apple Crisp is divine! I want to go back just for that. The brownie was good too, nothing special but nice with the ice cream. Bread pudding must be an acquired taste. Not a fan but I'm sure some of you will love it.
I give this place 4 stars because I am a fan. The food was tasty and our server was super nice and very attentive. If you like French-inspired food then this place is for you. If this place gets a more diverse menu it might get that extra star.
