    My wife and I visited this establishment again today and again, everything was outstanding. I had the omelette with a Belgian waffle on the side and she had the strawberry Belgian waffles. Delicious does not do it justice. I also had the Bailey's cappuccino, 2 actually, and they were great as well. The entire staff is friendly and attentive. Another 10 from us!

    The food was delicious. The service was very friendly and helpful. The ambiance was beautiful with warm lights and shops nearby. My husband and I had a wonderful time. Cappuccino Italian and Peanut butter cheesecake was delicious. The tortellini and French toast as well. I highly recommend!

    Food: Delightful - my cafe au lait was perfect, and the surprise cheese cake slice was generous and perfectly balanced with the right amount of European sugar; non of the American sugar levels that leaves you wanting to drink water all day Service was personalized; the young lady serving me was enthusiastic and attentive; she surprised me with the cheese cake, and checked on me 3 times in the 40 minutes I, dined in. The atmosphere was relaxed with moderate noise. They have outdoor sitting, it was busy with the weather being so nice. I had an experience! I felt appreciated; a feeling I rarely feel.

    Ambiance, yummy barista drinks and a menu of varied sweet and savory offerings beckon.

    Stopped by for to-go coffee but the delightful European cafe ambiance and classic music captivated me as well! As did the array of decadent desserts (my friend was in a hurry) and the indoor and outdoor tables begging me to sit and savor. A little bit of European old-world elegance and delish dark chocolate mocha... this is a must-see nestled in the Avalon. The outdoor fire pit and seating is perfect for people-watching!

    Intermezzo cafe - true to its name is connecting musical movement between other musical work, or in this case a small meal between larger meals! That aside it is made to look European but theme is all over the place. German/Austrian interior, with Italian and French food. The language tape in the bathroom is however teaching Korean and Chinese... I dined here about half a dozen times. It is a nice place with mixed results. Sometimes it is really good, other times not so much...in particular I could say Hummus is good, White Hot Chocolate, Bosco cake is delicious (imported from Italy). Service is good and servers are polite and friendly. Management is not great. If they are busy they will have a wait which could range up to an hour. In my experience one hour wait could turn out to be 10 minutes. Other times 40 minutes wait is actually 50 minutes. As I live close by I have attempted to call and put myself on the wait list and arrive when they are ready but management would not budge. This will be on their terms with zero flexibility... They also sell cakes but cakes are always turned away from the customer...I have not seen this anywhere else...it really points to the fact that management has little experience in hospitality industry.... Lastly this place does not accept cash. Not sure why since they are located in super safe area. Consequently a 5-star review is really a three star and perhaps I am being very generous here...

    This was our second time visiting Cafe Intermezzo on a trip into town, and it never disappoints! The cozy interior feels like popping into a French cafe for the day, and I love the decor and all of the windows. We started with a baked Brie for the table, which was great! We also had a variety of drinks, including the fabulous hot chocolates and a hot latte. The latte was excellent! I enjoyed the American breakfast with a croissant, and everything hit the spot for me. I love classic breakfast food! My boyfriend ordered the avocado toast and the croque-monsieur and he really enjoyed both, though the carbs really filled him up! There's always plenty of food here and we always leave full. Service is always kind and efficient, but we don't feel rushed through our meal. Can't wait to visit again!

    Seating was a pain - we were told 45 mins, which turned into well over a hour, but the food was worth the wait! I'd been to the one in Midtown a couple times, but only for coffee and dessert. I was planning on trying the chicken Florentine crepe, but our server got excited and talked up the spicy tortellini. She was right! It didn't disappoint! I ordered mine topped with chicken and my friend chose salmon. Both were delish. The portions were hearty so we were stuffed but still made room for dessert and hot chocolate. This meal was easily 3000 calories, but worth it! I'll def be back. (But not for the potatoes...they were just meh.)

    In a non-busy time of the day my group of 7 was looking at the items in the display case. 3 of us, 2 older and one younger sat at a table while each person in our group ordered desserts. We were asked to stand. There was NO ONE inside. Very odd. After we all got finished ordering the lady in the black dress said, "we'll since we are not busy you can sit." Odd behavior since there isn't much room to stand for a large group.

    Loved my visit to Cafe Intermezzo at Avalon in Alpharetta. A friend of mine recommended me come here since it was her favorite when visiting the area. I was super excited to see a location not far from my hotel. We sat outside for simple tea and donuts from across the way. It was relaxing and carefree. Everyone working here was friendly and I waited for my teas to walk outside and enjoy the fresh air. Hope I can come back here and have more. Everything sounded so great and it was such a nice spot.

    Overall, an okay experience. As fancy as this place is, the price is a bit much for an espresso drink. I asked for a coffee drink that came not even half full. We ordered a coffee and latte. Service and atmosphere were great though. Visuals were wonderful. Beautiful set up; interior and exterior. Great for small and large parties. There is inside and outside seating. They serve small snacks, coffees and alcoholic drinks. Not a restaurant, just do everyone knows. Till then, let's sip!

    The atmosphere really elevated my dining experience when the service and food were slacking. We chose to sit outside, and it was gorgeous at the outdoor seating. It was simple yet peaceful. There's only a handful of seating out there, and the tables are small. Menus were provided via QR code, and I like how they had separate menu for drinks, food, and desserts. Love the creativity for the drinks, I don't think a lot of places serve coffee or iced coffee with alcohol. I got cafe dulce vita. It was sweet, and you don't taste the espresso or alcohol after you mix the drink. For my entree, I got the smoked salmon bow tie pasta. The photo doesn't show it but they sprinkled bits of smoked salmon in it. Yummy, who can go wrong with pasta? There wasn't much of the tricolored tortelini, and it was not spicy at all. It was like the kick of some sprinkled pepper. It was creamy, and we got one with some overpriced grilled chicken. For dessert, we got a tiramisu to share. Very soft, but I don't think it was worth $11. Overall, I think the food and drinks are on the pricier side compared to their proportions, but the presentations were decent. There's a free parking lot next to Avalon. The location of this place is still ideal and adorable. The inside seating seemed too dim for us, but it gave a very nice, modern, intimate quiet dining dinner date vibe. On the other hand, service was slow. I think we went around 8pm and there weren't a lot of tables. It took a while to take our orders, drinks, and food.

    Cafe Intermezzo has a lot going for it, especially when it comes to ambiance. The European-inspired decor and cozy atmosphere make it an ideal spot for catching up over coffee or enjoying a leisurely dessert. The coffee selection is excellent, offering a range of specialty drinks that cater to serious coffee enthusiasts but don't expect to find matcha latte here. Service was pretty good during my visit. I was offered a seat at the bar instead of waiting 35 minutes for a table, which was a nice touch. The food didn't quite live up to expectations, though. I ordered the Belgian waffles expecting something freshly made, but I watched them come out of a package and warmed up instead. (Maybe the bar seat wasn't such a great idea?) For a place with such an upscale vibe, that was pretty disappointing, especially given that the food is somewhat expensive ($11). It kind of took away from what should have been a better dining experience. Overall, Cafe Intermezzo is a great choice if you're looking for an impressive coffee or a place to relax, but the quality of some menu items leaves room for improvement. Worth a visit for the atmosphere and service, but don't set your expectations too high for the food--especially for the price.

    What gluten free pastry are available at this location?

    Hi Alycia, we offer two gluten-free pastries: Apple Crumb Cheesecake and Old Fashion Chocolate Torte. However, I can't guarantee that they will be in the display when you plan to visit the cafe as they are not in it everyday. You could call ahead…

    t's not a new concept, the custom salad. Salata gets a 5 because it sticks to its lane and does it…read morereally well. The servers behind the bar tend to be energetic, friendly students from the nearby high school. The owner is also friendly. Everything is fresh. They have vegetables, fruits, nuts, proteins, and anything else that might go on a salad. Some categories of ingredients are extra, such as proteins. These are clearly marked so there are no surprises. They are generous with whatever toppings are requested. Ask for more of what you like. They do not weigh the salads they combine for you. They sell by container. Fill it as you will. I've seen people take advantage to the point where the container will barely close but the server just smiles. It must even out. The restaurant is spacious and well lit. Plenty of natural light during the day. The minimalistic design just feels right. Value is great. You really can't go wrong.

    Man it is a heck of a salad... huge even... loaded with all the things you want and none that you…read moredon't, but I got one the other night and it was $30+ once it was delivered. Now I certainly got everything I wanted.. and it was loaded to the brim (next time I'm asking for more corn) but the price just about threw me for a loop. By the time it delivered the cost was way high! I guess maybe it is better to eat in. I mean it's a salad... the main component is still lettuce... but honestly if I had one complaint it was that there was not enough lettuce. I guess I loaded it up with so much stuff there was less room for lettuce? In the end it was a great tasting salad... fresh, loaded, and fantastic.. just a bit on the pricy side especially once delivered. But next I'm time I'll just go and eat there!

    We've been having catering from Taziki's Mediterranean Cafe over the last two days, and for a…read morecatering option, it's good. I've enjoyed the sliced grilled chicken with taziki (tzatziki) sauce, the Greek salad, baked pita chips with hummus, and the roasted potatoes. I like that the food seems relatively healthy. The chicken strips are tender and flavorful (I like the olive oil and seasoning) and the hummus and taziki [sic] dip are tasty too. I also like the pepperoncini and Kalamata olives in the salad and how good the pita chips taste on their own (they're addictive). The menu description for the hummus is "[a] puree of chickpeas, tahini, touch of cumin, and lemon juice" and for the taziki dip is "Greek yogurt, cucumber, dill, and a hint of lemon." Based on what I tasted, I think these descriptions are accurate. Taziki's is a chain with over 110 locations nationwide. The most locations are in Alabama (the business was founded in Birmingham in 1998) and Tennessee. As of April 25, 2026, there are seven locations in Georgia: six in metro Atlanta and one in Athens.

    I have to start by saying if I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. First and…read moreforemost, I'm giving Joe Summerhour a solid 10 stars. His customer service alone set the tone for this entire experience. I initially reached out regarding a promotion I received via email, and although we discovered that the promotion wasn't currently being honored at the Atlanta or Milton/Alpharetta locations, Joe didn't dismiss me or brush it off. Instead, he took the time to thoroughly explain the situation and went above and beyond to make sure I felt heard, understood, and accommodated. That level of care is rare. I decided to visit the Windward location, and from the moment I walked in, the experience continued to exceed expectations. The staff was genuinely friendly, my to-go order was ready on time, and everything was seamless. Now let's talk about the food this was our first time ordering one of the family feasts, and it completely blew us away. We typically order individual meals, but this family feast was on a whole different level. The portions were generous (truly family-sized, not just labeled that way), everything was fresh, warm, and absolutely delicious. The salad was crisp, the food was flavorful, and you could tell it was prepared with care. For context, we're a family of three, and we were able to eat off this meal twice which says a lot about both quality and value. Kudos to Joe, kudos to Taziki's, and kudos to the entire team at the Windward location in Milton. If you're looking for a place that delivers exceptional customer service and real value for your money, this is it. Joe you deserve a raise.
