Amazing does not even begin to describe how our meal was! MELT IN YOUR MOUTH DELICIOUSNESS!!!!! The quiche was the lightest, fluffiest, most scrumptious quiche I have ever tasted! My hubby had the best eggs Benedict he’s ever had as well. And the French onion soup has an artistic presentation AND a superior taste! The drinks and wine are fantastic and the desserts continue the dining euphoria. The service was excellent and the ambiance matches the greatness of the entire package that is Cafe L’Europe!!!!!

Went there on a beautiful night, but the entire time, our waitress seemed annoyed and not friendly at all. Made us feel uncomfortable and not welcomed. There was a table near us who also had been waiting for their food forever and basically got up and left as soon as they got their food, they too were clearly also unhappy. The food was okay, nothing special, and the burrita appetizer special was $22! Probably wouldn’t go back. The brisket on the pasta wasn’t tender, but it did have okay flavor, but the whole dish could have had more sauce. The shrimp pasta was very garlicky. Honestly, the apple pie was better than both.

My father used to take my mother here in the late 70’s so we thought it would be a treat to take her here while we were in town visiting.

Went here today while visiting sister-in-law for her birthday and we were not disappointed. Our waiter was wonderful, nice and informative about the meals and gave suggestions. I had the blackberry drink for a cocktail it was good. For appetizer, if you like crab cakes you have to try them. They are the best I ever ate and for main meal I had shrimp linguini. Delicious, I highly recommend. Thank you for an amazing experience and making my sister’s birthday wonderful. We will be back.

Very kind people and did not think twice about seating us, in fact, they placed us close to the piano player. The main course was outstanding, the beef sliced like butter. Christian our waiter made sure everything was pleasant. The piano lady played a Spanish song for us and even gave us one of her CDs.

I really enjoyed the lunch we had at Cafe l’Europe. We sat outside on a beautiful day, and it was delightul. Such lush greenery! The food was very good. Pictured below is my Tuna Nicoise, which was spectacular. Although he was very busy, our waiter Manuel was very attentive and lots of fun. He took a group picture of us … and then another where he sneaked in a selfie! I highly recommend it if you have the time for a leisurely lunch or dinner.
