This café provides a true taste of life on the Country Club Plaza and feels more like Paris than the Midwest. Locals vie for a spot on the patio for prime people watching. Of course, the massive windows allow those who cannot grab a spot in the sun an excellent view of the upscale street life while enjoying a roaring fire when the temperatures dip. The food is excellent, offering everything from vegetarian entrees to chicken and steak. It also offers an extensive wine and coffee selection. It is usually packed, so reservations are strongly encouraged.
