Food here is super delicious and pretty! The service is wonderful and very attentive. Think of it as fine dining for brunch. Or maybe it is for dinner too, I don’t know if they have that, we just came for brunch.
Everything was tasty and had a little twist, like a French X American style menu.
One thing I will say is that the chicken crepe does not state on the menu that it’s a pâté… yes, I know pâté is French but you can’t expect all customers to guess that when reading the menu. My husband didn’t like it at all, but wouldn’t have ordered it had he had known prior. I think it’s an acquired taste.
I would highly recommend eating here, but without kids 😝 we brought ours, it wasn’t relaxing trying to keep them quiet when the dining room was quiet too!
It’s the perfect place for a romantic date 💕

We enjoyed our first time here. Waitresses can always make a huge difference, our waitress, Ms. Gracie, was one of those amazing young people. Her recommendations were spot on, we enjoyed everything she said was delicious. We ate the Land and Sea, a filet and a lobster tail, very delicious! We also tried dessert, we ate the Grand Marnier Souffle and the strawberry/white chocolate tart! Both were exceptional! Nice cozy little restaurant I would highly recommend trying!

Thanks to Hannah our server and the staff at Cafe Cuvee and the Ambassador for making it such a great dining experience. Hannah was efficient and thoughtful throughout the meal, combined with the wonderful food it made for a wonderful birthday dinner. We'll definitely be back. The french onion soup is hands down the best we've ever had. The whole meal was delicious!

Lovely brunch. This is such a wonderful cafe in the hotel. Great atmosphere and service. The coffee was delicious and the Ambassador Breakfast was perfect, eggs were exactly right and the bacon was crispy. For the Smoked Salmon Benedict the hollandaise was excellent. Highly recommend this for a nice breakfast or brunch. Also there is no banana in the fruit or on site , for those with an allergy.

Wow, what can I say the service was just fantastic. People knew their jobs and we atentative with out feeling pushy. When I needed somthing they were there and when I didn't they were not.
The food was just awesome, from the pork starter to the desert! I had the lamb chops with a bowl of French onion soup. I am picky about my soup it must be hot not Luke warm because it was sitting on the ready line waiting to be brought out. It was hot and tasted very good. Herby, which was pleasant. Wife had the flank steak and a salad.
Both the lamb chops and steak where cooked perfect.
We did not feel rushed and we sat there until about 840pm roughly 2 and a half hours.
I want to say thanks for a wonderful night to the staff.

What an experience. You enter through the hotel, very welcoming staff and soothing atmosphere. Upscale place, recommend coming for a special occasion or anniversary.
We got the Tomato Basil and onion soup. Along with the Kir Imperial Salad as our appetizers! You need to get the salad, beautifully presented with every ingredient having a time to shine. The blue cheese crumbles really brought it all together.
The pasta pistou w/ salmon is amazing. I enjoyed that more than my plate which was the baked salmon provencal. The baked salmon was delicious, you won’t be dissatisfied! Especially the skin, I just enjoyed the pasta dish more! The artichokes and dried tomatoes were brilliant. Excited to come again. Thank you Café Cuvée for an amazing time!

I really enjoyed this place! I will be coming back! If your in midtown make sure you check out this place! Brunch is also fantastic too!⭐️⭐️⭐️

Went for Sunday brunch. Make reservations; it was pretty full. Very nice atmosphere with a friendly and helpful staff (nice folks make all the difference). The prices are reasonable for such a nice place. There is valet parking on Walker and park yourself on 12th... look for the signs for the ambassador hotel (you have to walk a bit from here but not bad... on Sunday there was plenty of parking).
Got the Croque Masiuere sandwich with the eggs on top and she got the cucumber sandwich; all very good. Will return to try some Benedict fare. You sit pretty close to others just FYI. Bathrooms are in the hotel. Enjoy

Service was excellent 👍. We got lucky and got a lovely young lady named Hannah and she was extremely helpful and very sweet. We started with steak tartare and it was fabulous. Perfect egg yolk stop a very nicely seasoned ground filet. The surprise was the house made chips. Very unique and tasty the salt was a great vehicle. They also had oysters and I could not resist. Very fresh and tasty. My entree was duck a la orange. Perfect medium rare very nice orange with a peppery over taste. Great presentation !

Authentic French Restaurant in OKC. Some good dishes but was disappointed in others. The escargot was great tasting and had good flavor. The charcuterie board hig and plenty to share. Pretty good selection of things. The potato soup was an average potato soup. The beef boughion was a little salty and a tad too much wine. The chicken crapes were super dry and not much flavor. The scallop potatoes with the duck a la orange was my favorite of the whole meal. The bread was hot and fresh. The butter very spreadable. The watress friendly and attentive. Liked the atmosphere. If I tried it again I would try something else to eat.
