What we initially came in to try wasn’t available but I was not disappointed with my visit. The food was absolutely delicious. My sister who dislikes ham thoroughly enjoyed her quiche Lorraine. I enjoyed the croque madame. I do wish the side salads had dressing. The caramel macchiatos were some of the best coffee I’ve had in a long time. The crepe was perfect balance of tart and sweet.
The host tonight was Miguel. He was so gracious and welcoming. Even though I just wanted a little something, he showed me to a beautiful little table outside that is inside a plastic bubble! Very cozy and private. It was the perfect quiet experience to have a glass of wine and some delicious escargot on Broadway in New York City! I will be back, for sure. Very grateful to Miguel for the welcome.
Every dish we tried left us curving to return for more. My personal surprise was a blood sausage. I tried plenty of them cooked Slavic style, but one we had in Cafe du Soleil – best of the best!!!
I wish their draught selection was wider, but the Kronenbourg pint they had on tap was chilled and went down pretty easy!
For food, we got linguine with butter for out little butter cakes, Moroccan Sandwich ($19) with Spicy Lamb Sausage. The French Baguette was pretty hard to eat but the sausage was good.
The winner of the table though was an excellent Vegetarian Avocado Toast ($19). The Yellow and Red Cherry tomatoes and onions just elevated the taste to the next level for me!
Service was slightly slow in terms of our drinks. Food however arrived within 20 mins of ordering.
I can see Cafe Du Soleil become our regular brunch spot, especially whenever I am craving their amazing Avocado Toast!
Sorry I didn’t take pictures of the steak and eggs, I very much inhaled that food lol oh and the fries were spectacular too! Perfect amount of crunchy, crispy and flavorful!
We started with peach bourbon and raspberry ginger cocktails—both super fresh, flavorful, and a great size. For food, we had the French onion soup, butternut squash soup, Hachis Parmentier Au Four (a French take on shepherd’s pie), and a croque madame. Every dish was perfectly seasoned—not too salty or sweet, just really good, comforting food.
For dessert, we split an apple tart, and it was the perfect way to end the meal—flaky, warm, and so delicious.
The staff was really friendly, and the prices were surprisingly reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. We’ll definitely be back!
