Talk about being sensitive; it seemed like everything bothered the person at the register when I went to ask about purchasing a key lime cake. I took my 4 year old with me, and the girl at the register kept her attention on him rather than to conduct the business at hand; she kept telling me that he was touching the glass on the table set and the decorations on the table as well. As I was trying ask questions, a waiter kept on telling me excuse me, because it seems the to be that the register is right at the doorway to the dinning area in the front; not a good place for your register. I had to but a slice of key lime cake to try it out, to see if I was going to buy the whole cake, but the cake wasn't to my liking. I will not be going back to this place and will not buy a cake from them at all. The young girl with glasses at the front ruined my experience.Well, Carol G, or should I say owner of Antigua Cafe, my son was not annoying anyone, and I was mindful of him throughout my time there. My son couldn't have been a distraction to anyone because he was just standing there silently, admiring the decorations on one of the dinning tables. The only person that the seemed to be annoyed was rude girl with glasses at the register. I resent the fact anyone would suggest that my son was annoying and the I was not mindful of him; that is completely and total lie on whoever made that statement. Bottom line, the staff was rude and your key lime was not tasty at all. I will definitely not go back.

Food was delicious but very pricey. It's not a place my budget can afford. Service was almost none existent. I would have loved to have a tea refill but waitress never showed. We had to get up and find her to order dessert. Ambiance was nice. It was clean and beautifully decorated with an old fashioned touch. At times it was quiet.

I have eaten here a few times. It is a small restaurant. If you sit up front by the windows, it feels more open, but sitting in the back in one of the other rooms does feel a little enclosed. The food is very good though a bit pricey. I have tried several dishes and I have always enjoyed them. They have a variety of baked goods for desert or to take to go. The service is good and the wait times are reasonable. All in all, it is an enjoyable place to eat.

Once in a while, you have the good fortune to stumble upon a hidden gem...Letty, the owner, has perfected her craft and her humble and caring demeanor makes you feel right at home. The food is gourmet and high quality and whatever you chose will not disappoint. Do yourself a favor and let your taste buds thank you later.

Was excited to try this place. Showed up at 3:30 and was turned away. The lady made it very clear that her kitchen closes at 3:30. My wife and I said, "oh, thats ok, we just wanted coffee and dessert." She said, we dont have coffee. And said, we were welcome to take a pastry to go.We left. Wont be back

I found hair in my salad. I reported to the waitress and her reply was oh I am sorry. She should have offered to bring me another salad. I asked to speak to Mr. Garcia; but the waitress took my name and said she will relay the message. Terrible service for a high price.

The stuffed avocado was good and a piece of cake for dessert was large enough to share.
