    Café Alpine
    Chastity W.

    I ordered the cafe alpine and it did not disappoint. Very good! Very French restaurant. Dark ambiance. We sat the bar, the bar tender was friendly.

    Not one, not two, but THREE delectable vegan cake options!! I tried the chocolate raspberry mousse and the strawberry cake, and both were absolutely out of this world. They also had a carrot cake, making this hands down the best spot for vegan cake options in Atlanta. Service was impeccable. The hostess and server was friendly, attentive, and made the experience even better. The ambience was lovely and I would absolutely come back. Update: I seriously struggled with parking. (It took about 20 minutes just to sort out bc parking across the street runs $20, the deck is $10 per 30 minutes, and while street parking is cheaper, it's nearly impossible to find); however, I was later informed (see manager's note below) that parking is free and they'll validate you for up to 2 hours if you park in the deck off of 12th St! So, don't repeat my mistake and get your ticket validated!

    THE Baked Brie
    Christelle R.

    An Atlanta connoisseur, my husband made it a point to have us stop here - directly after landing at the airport and before checking into our hotel. From long ago, he has fond memories of the previous location and has raved about it. His nostalgia was bittersweet, as this new location is trying to carry on the vibe, but he feels strongly that it feels less charming and more corporate/transactional, given the area. On this Friday night, around 11 pm, I was impressed to see the cafe full and bustling with guests seated at outdoor tables in addition to a full indoor dining room. There was a short wait for a table for two, during which I admired the cheesecakes and cakes in the dessert case. The hosts were super friendly and welcomed us with charm and smiles, and our server was great. Our table was perfectly in the middle of it all, giving us a great view of all the happenings around us. This cafe is moody and dramatic and certainly exudes what you would picture as a European cafe. Picture marble statue motifs, heavy tapestry, ornate gold details, deep burgundy, and chocolate-brown decorative elements. The menus presented to us were last updated in June 2025, and I would have loved to see a fresh lineup for January. We weren't very hungry but decided to have quick drinks and share the baked Brie, which was a game-changer! The Brie is loaded with honey, pepper, and almonds, served with four toasted baguette slices. Baked Brie is a tried and true appetizer, but this one takes the cake as my favorite at this point -- and I will be trying to recreate it at home! I love that this Cafe is known for a great gathering place even in late hours. What a great option to grab a bite and enjoy conversation until 1 am!

    Brunch time

    This place is a great option for brunch. Their menu does seem to be limited on what they actually have but the dessert which is a tiramisu was phenomenal. Service is a bit slow, but they do have inside and outdoor seating. Making the ambience into good Day sitting outside and enjoying the fresh air. I definitely recommend this if you're not pressed for time and can sit around for a few hours having mimosas and enjoying the outdoors.

    Cafe au lait

    I'm lucky to have this Midtown location near me; in winter you can have a nice view of all the winter lights and buildings around. The food here is always good and I really like the vast variety of drinks. Please don't leave this place without trying their desserts, my favorite will always be the Tiramisu! The staff is always kind and welcoming.

    Triple chocolate cake
    DrDuru A.

    One of my favorite dessert spots of all-time that also serves up an excellent choice of liqueurs. This visit I had just enough time to get a chocolate cake to go. Deliciously rich a triple chocolate cake. Truly decadent and worth every penny! I was also happy that they provide validation for the nearby public parking lot. The place was packed (as usual). It's a great place to hang out, socialize, wind down, or wind up depending on your mood and time.

    Bruschetta
    Juliana S.

    Girls' night out and we picked the perfect spot! To sum up, we demolished the bruschetta, mussels, and seafood dip (all phenomenal). Then the cucumber martini did EXACTLY what it needed to do. They were definitely felt. Service was on point throughout the night, and I loved the warm, dark brown tones that made everything feel so cozy despite the place still being pretty spacious. I even grabbed a dessert to go because...why not? And it was just as flaky and buttery as I could imagine (even for someone that doesn't like sweets much). I haven't tried their breakfast yet, but believe I'll be back for that. Quick note on parking: there are plenty of garages nearby, so you'll surely find a spot. Just be prepared to pay for it. I think it's worth it though!

    Smoked salmon pasta
    Sharon B.

    Our daughter chose this restaurant for her Uber order on Tuesday, September 30. Since it's midterms week, she wanted something that would be nice and fulfilling and something different. We ordered the smoked salmon, pasta, and spinach artichoke dip. Everything was packaged very well.. and the taste of the food was good also. The order is a little pricey via the Uber app. It may be a little bit cheaper if you order online through their website, but the price of everything was about $35 not including tax and or tip.

    Smoked Salmon Pasta
    Ash C.

    Stopped by Cafe Intermezzo for a warm hot cocoa on a cold night after the theatre. We were able to walk in and be seated right away. We ordered the Hot Chocolate Deluxe Truffle and the White Hot Chocolate DeLuxe. The hot chocolates were good, but kind of cold. We also grabbed dinner as well. The Tomato Basil Pasta with chicken was delicious! The Salmon Pasta was just ok. The service was great; and parking is validated for 2 hrs in the garage.

    Hot Chocolate Berlin
    Chyna Q.

    I've been coming to Cafe Intermezzo for years and had some friends in town and wanted to show them do an after dinner coffee and cake. I had a terrible experience and left embarrassed that I brought people here. We ordered the hot chocolate intermezzo and the triple chocolate cake. The hot chocolate arrived to my table ice cold-- no exaggeration. Like they forgot to actually warm the milk before making the drink. The cake was stale and tasted like it was baked days ago and kept in the refrigerator. I couldn't even stomach one bite. Nothing was fresh or made well. The worst part was our server was hanging out and took 10 minutes to come to our table to check on us post food delivery. Terrible experience, probably won't be back for a while.

    Nia G.

    Celebrating my son's 15th Birthday! I thought this was going to be a treat for them but service is horribly slow and it was not crowded, we were able to immediately get a table but they seem to be short in staff. Presentation of the food was beautiful but it was not hot. And,after eating at other breakfast spaces in Atlanta, the french toast is underwhelming. I love eating outdoors and people watching- my tip is to sit in the back or inside seat as the sun was brutal.,

    Mexican hot chocolate
    Mikki E.

    Sunday night, babe, and I decided to have an impromptu date night here. We showed up around 7 p.m., and we were seated immediately. I decided on the Mexican hot chocolate, and he ordered an Americano. He enjoyed his cup of coffee, but my drink was more exciting. My rich cup of chocolate goodness had me feeling warm and cozy on the inside. We weren't hungry, but I'm a sucker for a cookies and cream cheesecake. I loved looking at the different layers. It was filled with cookies, and the slice was more than enough for 2. The creamy goodness was worth every calorie. 2 hours late, we were still there, so we decided to sip on some alcoholic beverages. I got my fave, Expresso Martini, which was really amazing. He got a man man drinks, but once again, mine was more exciting. My only dislike is finding parking. We opted to park across from the hotel, and that was $21. Besides that, we love coming here after shows or just for a warm sip. Always good customer service, nice ambiance, and delicious drinks.

    Perfect treat to end the day. What a combination.
    Maria A.

    Can't believe that I've never been to this place. The desert and tea was everything that I hoped it would be. It was light and fresh, so flavorful and healthy tasting. The vibe is very chilled. I sat at the bar. Ky is very attentive and friendly and suggested some excellent options to choose from. The place is constantly busy even now at 10:45 pm. I believe they close at midnight. Absolute French Bistro vibe with outdoor seating and cozy corners on the inside. The music is jazzy but not loud and people are chatting . This location is central with the excitement of midtown right outside . I will definitely be back.

I sat at the bar and had a little light banter with the bartender who is a brother looking to be in his late 30's-early 40's. When I asked about two fruity cocktails from the menu, he flat-out said he wasn't going to make them. That alone was off-putting. Trying to move forward, I asked what he specialized in, and he said he'd "come up with something." I agreed--but very clearly stated: no rum, because my body does not react well to it. After watching him make drinks for people who ordered after me, he eventually handed me a cocktail I never even saw him prepare. That already raised a flag. I took a few sips, and sure enough--my stomach immediately started reacting the exact way it does when I've had rum. When I asked what alcohol he used, he said, "I don't even know." That response alone tells you everything you need to know. At that point, I reminded him I specifically said no rum. Instead of taking accountability, he tried to argue and backtrack. Let me be clear--when a customer tells you not to use a specific liquor, you don't ignore it, guess, or "forget." That's basic service and basic respect. This situation completely threw off my evening, as I had plans afterward and ended up feeling sick. To make matters worse, I reached out to management and received no response. That lack of accountability speaks volumes. At the end of the day, this wasn't just a bad drink--it was careless service. This staff does not prioritize customer care, and that's a problem. If you choose to visit, be very direct, pay close attention, and don't assume your requests will be respected.
