(1) mussels: all opened, but overcooked and mealy, broth was acrid white wine lacking garlic, parsley, and especially butter, bread for dipping was a few small torn shreds in the bowl. (2) cream of spinach soup: rich spinach flavor, very good. (3) Nicoise salad: not a salad, but a nice big chunk of fresh tuna. (4) Lyonaise salad: comes with bacon, but this came with all the fat in the pan dumped over it, a wilted salad by any other name. My wife was disgusted, sent it back, got it off the bill. Rated 3/5 is pretty generous.
Everyone was so welcoming and the chef was AMAZING!!!
I love this restaurant. Food is always delicious. We always ask for Sarah she is excellent.
Tyler at the bar is the guy. Always great food.
The food is simply made well. Fine dining with Cafe in the title. Each meal has so much flavor and just the right seasoning. Thanks Cafe 1912!
Wonderful place! The food is fabulous, and the drinks are delightful! The make the best Grand Manhattan in Memphis. The staff is also some of the best in Memphis! It is definitely one my favorite places to dine.
Never disappoints! The lyonnaise salad is amazing!
Definitely not someplace we will be eating at again. We ordered the cheese plate appetizer which was a mistake. When the waiter brought the small plate of 3-1 Oz pieces of cheese and 3 small pieces of toasted bread I thought that was bad, and then we ate it...The bread was stale and the cheese was par at best. One entree was the salmon and the other was the ham and cheese stuffed chicken breast. The chicken was better than the salmon but this is not saying much. Both had little to no taste and were simply bland. Portion size were small to medium and we left still hungry.The "topping on the cake" was when the waiter brought the salt and pepper. Nothing wrong with individual portions of condiments but not what I expect from a restaurant which seems to tout itself as upscale.Only reason it is not a 1-star is because food was at least hot and parking was easy. Other than those two things there was not much positive about our dinner unfortunately.
All is great been eating a Jakes' places for 40 years! Just like home!
My friends and I needed a place to surprise and celebrate one friend’s 50th Birthday last night. We wanted to be outside because we’re still not completely over our COVID anxiety. Unfortunately, very few patios take reservations. And we were trying to find a restaurant that could accommodate our group of seven on a patio. Then another friend suggested I try calling Cafe 1912.
