OMG the food here is Absolutely Amazing! And the desserts are out of this world. The restaurant is beautiful and the staff is Incredible. Ms. Diane, the owner, is a Sweetheart. She is like family to my Husband and me. She always remembers us when we come in. She is Never to busy to speak to us. She did our wedding cake almost 4 years ago and it was Amazing. It doesn't matter if you have a small or a large wedding she is happy to help and does an Amazing job. I can't say Enough Great things about Olexa's Catering!

For lunch, the menu often highlights French-style influences: quiches, soups, savory sandwiches, and creative salads. I sampled their Savory Trio (half turkey panini, house soup, and strawberry-mandarin salad) and was impressed — each component was thoughtfully flavored.  Their signature seafood appetizer, the “lobstertini” (shrimp, crab, lobster in Louie dressing), is a standout and worth trying.

Olexa’s is such a quaint, beautiful restaurant and my husband and I truly enjoyed our time there for dinner last night. Brittany, Alicia, & Ellie (I hope I’m remembering their names correctly 😅) were an absolute delight to be around and were so sweet! I can’t talk more about how friendly and inviting the staff was.
Food wise, I truly don’t think you can go wrong. We shared the cheese appetizer and I almost licked the bowl. I had the seafood crepe and my husband got the daily trio. It was a perfect amount of food, the sandwiches and crepes were so good, we were almost sad we didn’t have left overs.
The CAKE! Listen, this bakery specializes in cake and I understand why. They don’t offer a lot of options, but the ones they do are to PERFECTION! Soft, slightly crumbly, sweet fillings and the slices are definitely shareable between 2, unless you really have a sweet tooth, then don’t share 🤣
I can’t recommended this place enough! They do lunch and dinner, the place feels like an outdoor European cafe and that is right up my alley in terms of atmosphere.

I would have given 5 stars, but I waited approximately ~20 minutes for someone to take my cake order. Albeit, the long wait was worth the product that was delivered. It was everything I asked for and more. The cake piping was very classy looking and they nailed it. I haven’t ate here for lunch yet, but want to!

A streetside French cafe right in the middle of a shopping center. FABULOUS!
The food is always incredible! But I ordered a cake that had a friend’s name on it — she has a unique way to spell her name — and had I not looked at the cake when I put it in my car, I wouldn’t have noticed the spelling was incorrect. However, they were able to quickly correct it, and the birthday girl was over the moon with the look and taste of the beautiful cake! Thanks, everyone!

OMG!! We've lived within 20 minutes of Olexas for 25 years and my friends, from 20+ years ago, still call and ask for their Vanilla cake to be sent to them, undoubtedly the best 'normal flavor' cake i've ever had and obviously makes a great impression on others who try it...we took 2 cakes to our granddaughter's 3-year old birthday and all the Nashville people that were present were lauding the praises of this cake....simply the best! Thanks for continuing excellence through the years....
We ordered a custom cake for my sister’s 30th birthday. It turned out absolutely immaculate. We ended up having to change our plans for the design and size later in the process. They were accommodating and it turned out 10x better than the pictures - not to mention, it was absolutely delicious! The size perfectly fed our group with a little bit extra, so we appreciated the size recommendation.
Wonderful time with a special friend!
The service is amazing! We have used Olexas for years and she never disappoints. I Ordered my birthday cake and she surprised me with the shape I wanted and I was so happy I cried in the Cafe. The staff is so sweet and professional but very caring. Olexas Cafe is the only bakery I would choose. They are beautifully decorated, they taste amazing and her prices are also affordable.
