Our family really appreciates Cafe Cuvee. Excellent service, fantastic, comfortable atmosphere and the food is divine. Although reservations are preferred and recommended, we have been seated twice without one.
Food - The portion sizes are surprising large for a more up scale restaurant. Everything tried so far has been delicious. Even something "normal", like omlets, has been made into a scrumptious affair of the mouth beyond expectations. 😋
Kids- While there is no kids menu, kids will surely enjoy the pancakes and fruit. Our 6 year old definately did. She has always been welcomed.
Service- Our servers have always been delightful and pleasant. Eager to please and accommodate. For example I make herbal tea "lattes" at home for my 6 year old and our last waitress offered to bring out frothed milk so we could make one there at the table - I didnt ask.
The drink menu is full of wonderful concoctions and my husband has enjoyed trying a few. They also have delightful cappuccinos and lattes.
Looking foreward to our next visit.

I have dined here twice before for dinner and it was very good. Brunch was another story. Service was very slow, items were missing from the menu and we were not informed in advance. For example, most menu items included avocado but they just didn’t put any on the food stating after serving us that the avocados weren’t ripe. Also, the “pomme frites” were actually just American home fries. I had high expectations but was sorely disappointed and probably won’t return again.

Awesome all around...exceptional service (from Brad) and atmosphere. Escargot could use a little upgrade with more liquid as it was quite dry, but that's a minor point. Would like to soak up the butter and oils with the baguettes. Had appetizers only this trip. Escargot, crabcakes, creme brulee, and exxellent good wine.

Stopped here on the way home to Texas, what a delightful spot. Delicious steak and dessert! Apologies for Forgetting their name but our waitress was really nice! Highly recommend!

Eccentric menu with savory options for dinner that blew my tastebuds away. It’s a must have to get the tomato basil soup if they have it! Leave room for dessert 🍨

Fresh oysters were outstanding, the best potato croquettes you’ll find most anywhere, and the entrees were just as fantastic as the apps!

I came with a decent sized brunch group, and I would recommend this place. It is a smaller, but nicer looking restaurant in the Ambassador Hotel on the 1st floor. I enjoyed my food, and the atmosphere. The only issue we had was when we were paying our bill. It took almost 30 minutes to have our cards ran and returned to us. Over all it was a good experience and tasty food. I'll come back. If someone is looking for new restaurants or just information on one. Go to my youtube channel T&M Reviews and check out the reviews, and feel free to request a review of a restaurant.

My husband and I went for the first time for dinner on a Friday evening and were very pleased! We started with escargot and the smoked salmon for appetizers as you can see in the pictures and they were amazing and the Salmon is a huge dish! We then had Beof Bourguignon and I got the seared scallops. Both were so amazing and flavorful and great portions! For dessert we got the crème Brule and it was good! Our waitress was Denise and she was amazing! We never wanted for anything, she kept our drinks filled and plates were taken and brought quickly. She was very helpful with the suggestions and friendly. The atmosphere was warm and friendly and we loved it. They also practice great Covid practices and we felt safe! We would highly recommend and can't wait to go back and try some other dishes we didn't get! The prices were very fair for the quality and quantity that you get. Great place for a romantic and just friendly dinner! Would also like to go and try their lunch and breakfast menu!

The Tuna Nicoisse was outstanding. We had a party of ten for dinner in a private room, which gave the family a quiet atmosphere to talk. The wait staff was attentive and friendly. The special of grilled salmon with asparagus was enjoyed by family members.

Our visit was for after-dinner coffee, port, and dessert. Wonderful, gracious service without any snooty. Coffee and desserts delicious and wine list (including port) very good. Saw others eating entrees, which looked delicious and by the look on their faces, were very delicious. Will be staying at this hotel and eating here next time in the City.
