Plein Air Cafe is a charming restaurant with good food and prices that won't break the bank. It has a cozy interior, but it can get quite crowded, leading to a noisy atmosphere when busy. However, the outdoor area is spacious and perfect for dining during nice weather.
The staff are friendly and provide excellent customer service, going out of their way to help customers. Vegetarian options are available, including pancakes, french toast, quesadilla, and mushroom pie.
The menu offers a variety of dishes, such as soups, salads, and sandwiches. The chicken and rice soup is tasty, with the right amount of vegetables and chicken to broth ratio. The avocado and tomato salad come with fresh arugula, perfectly ripe avocados and tomatoes, cotija cheese, and a cilantro dressing. However, the dressing is sweet, which may not suit everyone's taste.
The baguettes used for the sandwiches and soup look delicious, and the goat cheese sandwich, which comes with peppers instead of paprika, is a must-try. Overall, Plein Air Cafe is a great spot for a meal or coffee, but be prepared for crowds and potential insects during the summer.
