I had eaten here seven years prior and remembered it clear as day. For those of you that don't know (5% tops), this would be a vivid memory. Just trying to help out the 5%. Whether you're a 95%er or 5%er, you might find it interesting (100% know that word) that it was the same waiter as seven years prior. Good waiter, too. The food, atmosphere, pricing, and service are all very good! The End. read more

Great Service, Great Food ! Everything was FANTASTIC!! Can't wait to go back and try something else

The food was superb; best pork chop I've ever eaten. The servers are always nice and helpful. I will come back, again and again.

I used to only order takeout but recently popped inside to dine. The menu has grown! Our party had had acai bowls and a sandwich. All of it was 10/10. The inside is charming and comfortable and the staff super helpful in assisting us with finding the perfect lunch. read more

Food is very delicious, especially the crab cakes! Great wait staff too We ate on the porch, and it was so nice with heaters.

Stayed in Clearwater for a month and this was or favorite restaurant in the area. Staff and food are excellent. Relaxed atmosphere. read more

Came in for brunch after seeing recommendations on Yelp. I ordered small order of biscuits and gravy and the blackened salmon salad with Greek dressing. It tasted all sooo amazing! I'm going to say I've been in Dunedin for 3 days and this is by far my favorite restaurant to eat at that I absolutely loved every morsel of food! They serve breakfast, brunch and lunch! Very healthy options! read more

Cafe Alfresco - Blacked salmon salad with Greek dressing - New American Near Me - Dunedin, Florida

Excellent chef, never had a bad meal there. Pasta night will get you a big bang for your buck. I highly recommend the octopus and the double cut pork chop. read more

I recommend the French Onion Soup & their Gumbo. They're both excellent; we bring home qts. Tonight I had the Tuscan Pork Chop Wednesday night Special. There must of been a full pound of 2" thick, juicy, tender bone in meat for $18, enough food for 3 meals. The other highpoint of our visit was Cooper. She's the bartender, wait staff, & take-home gal behind the counter. She's complete w/ personality, cordiality, & efficiency. We come early, sit on the high stools (can't get up from their low chairs/booths w/ health issues), & enjoin the atmosphere. It's like being in the TV show Cheers...the locals love it. read more

We live in Dunedin and walked by this cafe at least 100 times and every time we say to each other "we need to try this place". We finally did last night. I had the bourbon salmon (a little over cooked) that was really good. Boyfriend got the chicken Marsala and he said it was really good. Desert was delicious. Waitress was friendly and on top of everything even though it was busy. We definitely will recommend this place and go a read more

Cute place for casual dining! We enjoyed lunch on Thanksgiving here. My ahi tuna salad was excellent & my husband enjoyed a portobello sandwich. He loved the potato salad. Menu was simple and is geared towards brunch. Saw lots of people getting omelets and they looked real good & very large! Service was good and friendly. Parking is a little difficult. read more

Cafe Alfresco - Awesome! - New American Near Me - Dunedin, Florida

Ate here June 1st because a lot of places on Main St. weref closed. Wanted something simple so I ordered a cheeseburger medium rare. My wife got the chicken parm. The pasta was way over cooked and the chicken was nothing special. My first burger was well done The did it over and it was more like super rare. By this point I didn't care to give them a 3rd strike. I should have known when my Rum Punch sidn't taste like Rum or Punch. Might have given an extra star if I didn't have food poisoning the next day while on a friend's boat. Still apologizing fo him read more

Wow. The portions here are HUGE. My grandmother and I split a chicken Parmesan plate and we each got a salad and bread with it for around $20 total. It's not gourmet but it's good Italian food and I would for sure come back. The chicken was hot and crispy which made the entire dish. The wait staff was quick and refilled drinks quickly. The wait to get in was non-existent on a Saturday night. They were super busy but the place has so many tables it didn't matter. read more

Has lunch with a friend. I had a delicious salmon salad and my friend had a salad with grilled chicken. The salads were very good and plentiful. However, there's always room for dessert. Blueberry pie was great. Derrick was a great server. He was personable and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this restaurant. read more

Food is delicious, and the service is prompt, friendly and just excellent. Great ambiance too.

As far as taste goes...this place has it. Seems like everything they have is nice. Good proportions, good balance of ingredients etc. I had the Reuben. I hate too much sauerkraut. These guys did it right. Just the perfect amount. The pie was plain bonkers. Tastes homemade. Tastes so Fuckn fresco. Blueberry was the best. Like give me a whole pie. Reese's was really good too. Not too heavy. Key Lime was good. Like how I wanted it to be. Jenny m, our server was very accommodating as well. She was sweet. read more

Been to Dunedin a few times now. I've gone up and down Main Street often, stopping at a lot of shops and trying out different restaurants. I finally decided to try Cafe Alfresco with my mom.....and I'm glad we did!! Our waiter, Dan, is was absolutely awesome! Such a sweet and helpful gentleman. He recommended a few things on the menu. Throughout the whole meal, he was attentive and was always quick to fill up our drinks when he noticed them getting low. For an appetizer, we got pork dumplings. There's 6 on a plate, which was perfect for just the two of us! They were also super yummy as well! Would definitely get again. For dinner, I had the orange chicken which was AMAZING and very filling as well. My mom had the lobster roll and she thought it was delicious. She loved the roll that they served it on. Overall great place. Would definitely recommend if you're in the area! read more

We had an excellent experience. To start with ordered Feta Alfresco and it was delicious. Then I got a Reuben and potato salad, which was fantastic and will order it again. My husband got a Ranch Chicken and fries and it was delicious as well. Our server was Kaveh and he was a fantastic server. He was right there every time we need a refill on our tea and he made sure we didn't want for anything. I would recommend this Cafe Alfresco to anyone and everyone! We will differently be back. read more

Staff is great and they had the best grouper nuggets I've ever had in my life. The food was exceptional.

Food is so good here!!! Salads with salmon are beautifully prepared and they are flexible with personalization. I highly recommend the outdoor patio right on the bike path. Open Christmas Day. read more

Grew food, great service. Best blueberry pie! Love the location, indoor and outdoor seating!

Had a Saturday brunch here the other day ! We sat outside and had an older gentleman as a server who was phenomenal ! We each ordered something different and we all agreed that the food was super tasty and the service was great enjoyed the outdoor seating ! Will return read more

Cafe Alfresco is located in the exciting shopping area of Dunedin, FL. Since I have tried a couple of other cafes in the area, I visited this cool cafe on a busy Friday afternoon. We were seated right away and had a great table with a view of the area. Our waiter OSH quickly served us our lunch and we enjoyed our view and delicious food in beautiful Dunedin. Great place for lunch. read more

We recently returned to Dunedin after a years absence. So many new restaurants! We contemplated trying some of the new offerings and explored their menus but ultimately returned to an old favorite-Cafe Al Fresco! What a great decision! We had a perfect meal--comfortable and elegant atmosphere, outstanding service from Dina, along with a nice welcome back from Katherine, who remembered us from our last visit a year ago! Food was delicious--we ordered the sesame crusted salmon, along with vegetables, mashed potatoes and salads. I'd order the same meal the next time--everything was prepared and seasoned expertly! The coffee here is worth mentioning--it is exceptional! We have had numerous meals here--and we are always pleased with the food, the wait staff and the atmosphere. We will be back (maybe even tomorrow!) read more

Food is always great! Fresh ingredients and great service! I've never had a bad thing there no matter what I chose.

Blackened walnut chicken was excellent. Salad dressing was light and complimented the other ingredients. atmosphere was nice.

This was spot was a pleasant surprise in Dunedin. I hadn't been to the town before and I discovered it's actually a really fun spot! Stopped in here for lunch on a weekend and we were seated almost immediately, outside thankfully. I spotted their cake/cheesecake selection and I was already tempted to order something. They were still serving brunch so I ordered one of their omellete's and it was really tasty! The side of potatoes tasted super fresh too. And it was so big I had to take half of it home. Service was great and the entire place had a very relaxed vibe. Not sure if I'll ever happen to stop back in, but I'm glad I know of this spot in case I ever do! read more

Food was great, service was excellent. Nice place for brunch. Quaint, open and comfortable

I love this place, I really do. But, I have been getting their blackened chicken walnut salad for 6 years now and in the last 2 months it has gotten noticeably smaller and smaller. Not so much the ingredients, but the actual greens portion- the least expensive component. I would rather pay more then get such a small salad. Please return it to the past portion. read more

Stopped in here one Saturday afternoon for a late brunch! I was warmly greeted by the staff and the bar when we got the last two open seats at the bar. I liked the amount of options on brunch menu and decided to go with the eggs Benedict with bacon subbed for the Canadian bacon. I was happily surprised with the meal! Just a really well made Benedict and some dang good bacon. The potatoes on the side were good as well, but I would have preferred a little crispier. My cousin liked her meal as well - the orange chicken with rice and a giant tortilla shell. She ate nearly the whole thing! Said the chicken was super good and the meal itself was filling. We both liked the interaction at the bar with the server. He was very kind and conversational! We even did the little coffee news trivia with him! read more

Stopped by to pick up food for a our COVID date night. We ate at the waterside park nearby. Service was good and safe. Buuuuttt, food was just lacking in flavor. I love to try Grouper sandwiches. Nothing to write home about this one. Plain, plain, plain. Not even the tartar sauce was exciting! I was told green beans was the veggie side, not only was it actually a mixed veggies side but there was not a single green bean. Disappointed. I don't care for soft cooked veggies. We actually threw them out and didn't even eat them. The saving part of the meal was the crab cakes. Sure they're not your thick pieces of crab meat, but there was definitely crab through the whole thing. Great flavor too. Overall, not coming back. :/ read more

I ordered the Reuben sandwich. Hubbant ordered a side salad only and then declared he would eat half of my sandwich. "Oh yeah?" I said. "What makes you think I won't eat the whole thing?" But he was right. The Reuben was delicious but huge. read more

Pretty good. Enjoyed my visit to this place. Got equ Parmesan and it was medallions the way it was presented. It's an OK way to do it. It makes it seem like it was more made to order that way versus it being like lasagna style. read more

Even though I live in Tampa, I always forget how great Dunedin is. The Cafe is a staple and I have never had a bad meal. We started with the fried feta with garlic bread and the shrimp appetizers. Very good and they came out fast! Next they had to twist my arm (not really) for the baby back rib special, but looking at the other orders at the table, I would have been just as happy with the fried chicken, the meatloaf or the lobster roll! The ribs truly were "fall off the bone" quality and the taste was spectacular. For desert, we ran the gambit with coconut cream pie, chocolate torte, key lime pie and I rounded out the table with blueberry pie a la mode. I only wish the table would have spun to make it easier to taste everyone's desert! Dinner was delicious, but we ate so much, that a walk to the pier afterwards was a necessity! read more

Excellent service and absolutely divine food The Thai sweet chili shrimp appetizer was to die for The four different dinners were each so scrumptious that there was little conversation as we devoured the wonderful food. We had two of the specials -- the fried chicken and the fried grouper basket, and the other dishes we had were the shrimp scampi and the chicken Picatta. For dessert, we shared the most magnificent carrot cake. I personally cannot wait to go again! read more

Love this quaint little spot! The food is always very good! The menu options are atypical and fun!

The food is so good! The service was awesome, our server had great recommendations on dinner. The enclosed patio allows you to still see everything going on downtown while you're having a peaceful meal. The dessert case has so many options to choose from you can't say no to having a slice of whatever is in there! read more
