Cool decorations, decent food. Lost a star for taking the tip calculator off the receipts.

First off, let me talk about how much I love the setting and ambiance. Romantic darkness with dim lighting is the best description I can think of, but it's still great for small families, friends, but especially for date nights. Very, very intimate. Next, let's talk about their 40 page drink menu with a host of coffees, spirits, and hot chocolate. I tried a deluxe hot chocolate truffle, and it was pretty amazing. High quality chocolate with whip cream and caramel. Fyi, they serve breakfast ALL DAY. And they have probably 10 different cheesecakes and 20 different cakes. A TOUR GUIDE can show you around the desserts and will write down what you want so you can just give it to your server. Food? Pretty good. I tried the tomato basil pasta which was flavorful for around $15. You can add salmon or chicken for extra. My friends really enjoyed their food as well. Service ... it was okay. We got our needs met and no complaints. Cafe Intermezzo at Dunwoody may be more challenging to spot, but they're in the same complex as Elons Bakery and Chop House, more in the back. On busy days, parking can be trickier, but theres a hidden lot towards the bsck. Dont forget to check in on Yelp and get 10% off! read more

This cafe was recommended to us & certainly didn't disappoint. The views were reminiscent of old London. You forget for awhile that you're in Atlanta. The restaurant & outdoor patio was well decorated, arranged etc. I really loved the look of the place. There were so many options I didn't know what to do so we tried several things. The desserts were really moist & flavorful. It was hard to not yell Mmmm! I'm so serious. I was equally impressed with the coffee. It was strong, but the flavor was amazing. I would love to go back next time in in town. read more

My two friends and I went one random Thursday and had an amazing time. We had a small issue with something and they fixed it immediately-manager was super attentive and sweet about the situation and even comped part of our meals. Service was great- our servers name was Maranda. Love this place and the food! read more

When a friend suggested that we grab late night desserts at Intermezzo, this certainly was not what I was expecting. Having seen the small shop at Hartsfield Airport, I was anticipating a cute coffee shop with desserts. Instead, I walked into a major late night dessert operation. The place was packed both on the large patio as well as inside and there were no signs of it slowing down. I love hot chocolate and they had a variety of offerings - raspberry, truffle, white chocolate. Given that it's Fall, I asked if they could create a pumpkin hot chocolate and without any issue, our server whipped one up for me. After ordering our drinks, we went up to the dessert case and got the run down on the cakes, cheesecakes, and tortes. They had every flavor that you could imagine. I asked for red velvet cheesecake but unfortunately, they had over sold it so my second choice was the pumpkin spice cake. The cake was soft and moist and the cream cheese icing was rich and creamy. Although the pieces were large, everything there was definitely overpriced. Nearly $9 for a slice of cake??? But, it was obvious that the customers didn't mind paying those prices as the cakes were flying off of the shelves. If you want small or large bites to eat before your meal, they offer a limited food menu as well. Check out Cafe Intermezzo if you're open to paying more than what dessert is worth (-1 star) and if you don't have any time constraints (-1 star) - as the service is not swift - this is a good option for a leisurely girls night or for a date. They are open until 2am. read more

Visited Mid- may for a brunch with some girlfriends for a reunion. The aesthetics of this restaurant is top notch. The outdoor portion is mostly covered with a few tables along the gate. Inside, there is bar portion and booth seating options as well. We opted for outdoor seating. We ordered mimosa for drinks, and for food we had two orders of the croque madame, avocado toast and smoked salmon. The food was top notched and full of flavor. However our server had an attitude and bothered throughout our entire visit, which deemed our experience. Overall great place, I am sure you would love it. read more

I invited another couple to join me and my girl friend for dinner at Cafe Intermezzo - Dunwoody location last night. We arrived at 6:30 PM and were seated immediatley by the hostess. We requested a table in the back corner so that it would be quiet and we would be able to talk. Four hours later we left and were full to the brim of great food, drink, talk, expresso/coffees and the best desserts. The total experience was outstanding in particular our server, Nyasia, who answered all our questions and provided outstanding service. The manager, Meradyth, came by several times to ensure we were taken care of. The old world European ambience made me feel like we were in Paris having a cafe and dessert. read more

Four of us go there as a couple dating since 2014. We usually eat there just for their famous desserts. Nice ambience place, very much like European vibes. Although service has always been terrible due to being understaffed. Hope they can hire more people to get a service faster. Noted: always make a reservation before coming to eat this place, so that you don't have to wait for an hour to get a table. read more

Cafe Intermezzo - Salted caramel - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Dunwoody, Georgia

You can find this location of Cafe Intermezzo at 4505 Ashford Dunwoody Rd NE, Atlanta, GA 30346, the Park Place shopping center across from the Perimeter Mall. Other restaurants in the same mall include the very good tapas at Eclipse di Luna (across the courtyard), steaks at McKendrick's, Sage Woodfire Grill and of course Alon's Bakery. The location on Peachtree was one of my favorite hangouts when I first came to Atlanta in the late 80's - it was always good for an after dinner nightcap, perhaps a dessert and/or a cup of espresso or cappuccino. I discovered this location while working as a chef at the now defunct Mi Spia which originally was a few doors down in Park Place. Intermezzo was always there to provide a different experience from the places where I worked, and since it was so close I would frequent the bar after work or stop in for coffee before. Intermezzo is about as close to a real international cafe as you will find in Atlanta - the interior is lavish with wood and chandeliers, the dining area lush and the bar expansive. The place reeks of old-world-charm and is simply perfect for a late rendezvous or tête-à-tête. This place also has a phenomenal adult drink list and expert bartenders and I still haven't gotten to the desserts.They also serve a good brunch and have an expansive lunch menu. But really, you need to experience Cafe Intermezzo for the desserts. The assortment and styles of classic cakes, tarts, cheesecakes and pies is truly astounding. Combine any of these with the great coffee or fine cocktail and you have a winning combination. I don't have any favorites - actually I'm trying to cut down a bit - but I did order a double cappuccino the last time I visited. Service in general is very good - seating can be a bit of a bear, especially early evenings and if you want to enjoy the outdoors. Otherwise the service here is very good. Oh, and did I mention they have a tardis out front? Whovians rejoice! (longer review with many photos on my food blog) read more

I've been a fan of this place since the day I found it years back. It never seem to disappoint me when I visit. Coffee & Teas: Wide-selection and tasty coffee. I've tried more of the milk/shlag based coffee and they're amazingly good. Try Cubano Latte or the Cocciccino Bianco (spelling may be off-excuse me). My taste has gotten heavier though and off the sugar. I recently visited and got the Cafe Beethoven. I don't know if they made it wrong, but it was overly sweetened with the honey. I sent it back to ask for more coffee to balance it out, but it was still too sweet. Maybe my taste buds, but they re-made a new one less sweetened and it tasted perfect. But I wouldn't recommend that drink in particular. Desserts: Love their cheesecake. Tira Misu all the way! I've also tried their Red Velvet, which is pretty tasty. Food: I've never tried it here, but I see this place more of a coffee and dessert spot so I'll maybe try it one day. read more

Love the Vibe here! A great dessert and coffee place after dinner. The decor definitely compliments the ambiance, and the food is delicious! Food: - Caprese Panini: tasted great, was cooked fresh, and comes with a side of chips. - Spinach and Cheese dip: The dip was good, and they had freshly cut bread, we even asked for more! - (3 stars) Crostini Appetizer: the bread was a little too toasted but overall it was good with tomatoes and shredded parmesan cheese. - (5 stars) Fire Roasted Vegetarian Soup was really good, I loved the flavors and it was great on a cold day! Dessert: - (5 stars) Caribbean Coconut Cake: sweet but very satisfying! The cake was very moist and frosting tasted fresh. Sharing is recommended as they give you a large piece. - (5 stars) Nutella Crepe: I asked for both bananas and strawberries and it was delicious! Drinks: - Peppermint Hot Tea: Never had this before but it was delicious! It clears your sinuses and gave me the feeling of Christmas time. - Casablanca Hot Tea: This was very refreshing and light which was great! Second time around I ordered this and it was very strong - too strong in my opinion! - (5 stars) White Hot Chocolate Raspberry: soo yummy! There are bits of white chocolate pieces on top with fresh whip cream! The raspberry flavor was just right and not overpowering. It's a huge cup that they give you, so sharing is recommended! Busy Saturday night, but we were able to get our table within 10 minutes. Customer Service was good, although getting our table was a bit confusing and the greeters in the front were not prepared. I definitely want to praise the employee around the cake/cheesecake display, she helped us pick the coconut cake and was able to describe all the cakes and cheesecakes to help us pick something we would like, and she was spot on! Thank you! read more

Cafe Intermezzo has an extensive list of drinks & desserts. They have a wide selection of coffee, alcohol, and cheesecake. They also offer "real food" such as salads and sandwiches for those who want to grab a meal here as well. The ambience is very romantic and intimate. It's a nice place for dates or catching up with friends. However, it is quite dim here as well. For a bunch of mid-20 year olds, my friends and I held an iphone flashlight to see our menus. haha. I love the cakes here, but I do not love the service. I do not recommend coming here if you are in a time crunch. Expect a wait to get seated. Expect a wait for your food to come. Expect an extra long wait to receive your check. read more

Awesome food and friendly service. The dessert counter is out of this world! Awesome selection of coffee's, teas, and French cuisine.

One of my favorite places to come for brunch or lunch ! The wide espresso selection is an unique staple to this cafe. The food is incredible and large portions. You can choose between typical breakfast choices or lunch options while getting a unique caffeine fix. Also, in the evenings its a great location for a romantic dinner date with the incredible dessert selection. The ambience is unmatched! read more

Go to the Midtown location, don't waste your time here. We kept getting dirty glasses/plates, and after-bringing that up, they switched them out and they were STILL dirty. So we had to bring it to their attention AGAIN. We had a trainee serve us and the trainer never checked up on us. We saw the trainer server attending every other of her tables and not once did she check up on our table. Actually she only came to check my expired ID, other than that she never came back. Even though we were trying to make eye contact with her to ask for more water, it seemed like she would just turn the other way. They took forever to take our food order, once we got our drinks we said we were ready to order. The trainee said she was going to wait on the trainer. The trainee came back after a long while saying she was taking our order, yet we had to wait a long while. The food took long and definitely didn't meet taste expectations. We always go to the midtown location & order the same thing and things are always great. read more

This is my second time at Cafe Intermezzo and my First time I had a pleasant experience but it was with a smaller party. They sat us outside in the heat. It was super uncomfortable. I'm not sure if that's just where they sit large parties or what, but it's not ideal in this summer heat. Nonetheless our server Thaddeus was pretty accommodating to our group. I ordered the chicken salad sandwich and pasta salad. My table mate ordered the naan and lox and chicken jambalaya. My chicken salad was pretty good and so was the pasta salad. I also enjoyed the naan and lox! The chicken jambalaya was so bland. It was a disrespect to Cajun culture to have jambalaya be so flavorless. Other than the heat and the soup everything else was decent! I would like to go back and try deserts and main entrees! read more

Visited tonight and was so disappointed. We ordered 2 coffees and a dessert only. We placed our order and 30 mins after just waiting we asked the bartender about the status and she quickly ran to the computer and said it was on its way ( I can only assume she forgot to put the order in), we watched as everyone around us were served and refilled..etc. The 2 female bartenders chatted along and snuck in a few shots behind the counter. I asked again if we could just have the slice of cake in the meanwhile and she said it was coming. The. One coffee came in a semi shattered glass. Pieces were falling off it. Btw the hot coffee was semi cold. We pointed.at the glass and she came over and poured it in a new glass without being concerned about the shards. The second coffee appeared about 5 minutes later and I asked about the cake and they said it was on its way....I then walked over to the other side where the cake display is at and asked a person working back there about it and she looked and pointed at the end of the counter where cakes are placed for the staff to deliver and told me that it had been ready for a while now she then said let me ask your server/bartender to take if for you. I sat back down and then came the dessert. Bartender never apologized for the long delay or anything, didn't even say a word as we.paid, instead she focused.on chatting with the other bartender. Its as if customers were interrupting they're hangout session. Very disappointing experience. read more

Lil pricy but, worth every penny for the coffee, cakes and super friendly service. Met a friend here before she gave me a tour of the CDC, if a communicable disease researcher recommends a place, you know it's gotta be a good clean place with a hella good health score. Well that or she wants to get some samples lmao. The Hazelnut Cafe was amazing and I can't say enough about the tiramisu they have imported from Milan. The serving size is HUGE, enough to share (if you really want to that is). Light and fluffy, packed with flavor and calories. Definitely on my list of 'stop here' whilst rollin through ATL read more

They don't disappoint me. The food is good and so is the coffee. A little pricy so don't expect to spend less that $15. I usually get breakfast so I can't speak to the dinner items. I had the southern breakfast which was about $12. The chicken sausage is decent. A little too tough and grisly for me but it's ok. The eggs were fluffy and delicious, I should have added cheese. The potatoes seemed to be steamed or boiled then thrown in the oven for a slight crispness on the outside. Perfect. The coci bianco is my favorite coffee drink and it is $5 and some change. Super small mug but it's tasty. It features white chocolate morsels on top and then your stir them to melt into the espresso. Mmmmmm. I took off one star because there is never anyone at the host stand when I get there and my silverware was filthy. Other than that I like this place. read more

Service was a little slow, but great brunch option along with coffees. The atmosphere was great

I'm a huge fan. My sister recommended Cafe Intermezzo, given she's been to one of their locations, and I've heard of it but never had to the chance to dine there. We sent to the one in Dunwoody today across from Perimeter Mall for brunch, and fell instantly in love with the spot. It has an upscale, casual fell, almost similar to a New York City bistro. The waiter was very attentive and gave excellent recommendations on the menu. They are requiring masks, but we had no wait. I ordered the Salmon with Broccolini that usually also comes with Gnocchi but the waiter recommended potatoes with that option instead, and I did. Excellent recommendations, because the entire dish was well-seasoned, well-prepared, and simply fantastic. When you come to Cafe Intermezzo, you have to have dessert. They have a variety of wonderful cheesecakes, and the one to get is the Pumpkin-flavored Cheesecake which was rich, generous, and perfect for the fall. This is the spot in the Perimeter to head to with a friend or loved one for a deliciously scrumptious meal in a relaxed and elegant environment for some truly well-done food and exquisite desserts. They may be my new fave in the area. Parking is free and ample. Bravo! read more

On January 14 2024 me and my daughter decided to give this place a chance from the reviews we arrived close to closing time( in which staff did not inform us of because we would have left & never patronized them ) they gave us a 30 min wait for a table then once we sat down to order food came out cold then once server was asked to assist we were told the kitchen how convenient especially with cold "hot chocolate " was closed !our tab was 83.00 in which included a tip staff was contacted the next day "alexa " she stated she would refund our money! This did not happen alexa stated i was committing fraud and gave me a fraudulent statement about my refund corporate was contacted and Olsen had no responsibility for his staff or respect for me as a customer I provided proof of where my bank was never sent the refund to mr olsen and his staff they then turn around & blatantly lied to me about there capabilities of reading and understanding the statements the bank provided this is the level of disregard disrespectful Racism of an environment this establishment is and to add injury to insult i was told if i did file a dispute with my bank i would get nothing and they would just show proof that i was at there store ( although that was not what the dispute was about if i was in the store or not ) I have been left with no other choice but to place reviews on ever nuk & cranny of this internet to hold this fraudulent establishment accountable for there actions! It is completely uncomprehendable how someone can be a manager yet cant read the emails properly for understanding because it is quite evident in the response from the bank that there was no refund issued or initiated from the restaurant back to me manger joy and owner olson purposely read into the email with the understanding of what would suit the outcome of my refund for their own gain they are not trustworthy and don't deserve to do business in the city of dunwoody ga read more

I've been coming to Cafe Intermezzo for almost a decade now (ever since my time in undergrad) although I have recently stopped coming in as frequently. However, I can safely say that this last experience was the best one I've had at Intermezzo yet! We got seated and Emili was so attentive and friendly with us the whole night. She had great recommendations (the banana chocolate cake was incredible) and was always there whenever we had a question or needed anything. Emili really made the night for us!

The best thing about this place is the service, coffee and dessert. They manage to elevate the experience. Its coffee , but they make it special and cool. Its dessert, but there is something extra. I had their Amaretto Cheesecake and it was fluffy, light and flavorful. Its just those little things that make this place just so good. The white linen, the chandeliers, the candles... It makes the whole experience of eating cake , just marvelous. Kudos to the server and the service. I've had my share of fine dining, and the server here was professional, prompt and knowledgeable about the menu and cakes. read more

The place looks was ok not really impressive. I like the ones in Avalon much better. Foods and coffees also in average, but house coffees were strong which I'm ok with it if I didn't have any before I came here.

A friend and I stopped by on Monday as it opened at 5pm and was seated immediately. The atmosphere was super cute and very European coffee shop ambience. It got busy around 6pm, so we got lucky and didn't have any issues with service or waiting long for our food and drinks! We ordered the spinach & artichoke dip, Italian bruschetta, and the Nutella banana crepe. The dip was okay for me, not my type of food but my friend loved it. It came with lots of bread which was great! The Italian bruschetta was super on point! I wish that there was some way the bread wouldn't be so soggy, but it's understandable as it is very flavorful and had lots of tomatoes and seasonings on top. Definitely recommend! I loved the crepe so much as well! It was perfectly cooked, had copious amounts of Nutella, candied nuts, and banana slices. It was also pretty big and I could barely finish it! I also had the caffe intermezzo, which was soo good. Would absolutely revisit this place!! read more
