The Cafe had great selections on their menu, the Squash Bisque soup was the best I have ever had. I asked to customize my entree and the server was very accommodating and customized my order per my wishes.

Undoubtedly the BEST restaurant in Clayton. The service is friendly. The food is delicious & not boring or bland. This is a hidden gem located on Hwy 70 near the pharmaceutical area. BTW, try the porkchop! You'll thank me later!!

Placed an carry out order for my family yesterday 2/1/25. I Got a lamb burger, son got a regular burger, and my fiance got a chicken wrap. Food was edible but I was not impressed at all. After reading other reviews I had high hopes but in the end was disappointed. I couldn't even finish my food. I'm not a food snob by any means but man what a let down. We probably won't go back. Only positive take away was that they were very reasonably priced.
