Shared a steak/frites and had a caesar salad. Lettuce was a bit tired and the salad was very cold. Steak was cooked more than the rare we had asked for. Not the best tasting meat for what it cost. Fries were OK. Service was great. Restaurant filled up quickly and noise was not a factor. We would definitely give the cafe a second visit and chance! Diana and Denny Nevala
I want to give this place 5 stars so badly but I cant. The ambience is absolutely beautiful, the workers there are amazing. It’s the food, for me. I’ve ordered fried shrimp (for my toddler) and chicken and waffles and tacos, I cant even remember what kind or tacos and each time I was left underwhelmed. The waffles were too hard, they hurt my gums to eat. The way the shrimp and chicken were seasoned -it was a bit too much for my toddler and the chicken was seasoned too heavily...

The meals we had over two days were all excellent. The Chef deserves the rating I gave!
We had the Shrimp Scampi, Oyster Rockerfellers, Fried Oysters, Crab Cakes, and Oysters on the half-shell. I only wish I could have tried the Key-lime Pie. I didn’t have room either night we stayed there.
Nice...
