My husband and I recently dined at the Cafe Alsace and it was one of the best French dinners we have eaten. We happened upon this cafe because we had purchased an Entertainment Book for the Atlanta area while traveling. I am sure glad we did. My husband ordered the Boeuf Wellington- an entree he often makes at home for... More

Was really quite disappointed in this little place. Atmosphere was ok and service a little laid back. Food was just not very good. Quiche was heavy, not light at all and chicken salad tasted as though it was made with miracle whip.

This restaurant looked like a little French gem. The decor was charming, but the food was terrible...at least for a French restaurant. There was far too much cheese on all the dishes, and the crepes were loaded like burritos. I suppose that many people like it there since the restaurant was crowded, but I will not be returning.

I try to eat here every time I come to Decatur. The decor is charming as is the owner. The food is outstanding. I have loved everything I have tried on the menu. The lunch quiches are comfort food at its flaky buttery best. I'm not sure about the reviewer who said there are no bathrooms - yes, there are.

This is one of my favorite places to eat. It's intimate (tiny actually) romantic, cozy and most importantly DELICIOUS. The owner is such a sweet wonderful lady that it makes the food even better than it already is. It's a gem that I'm glad isn't so popular that I can usually get a table.

What a wonderful surprise in Atlanta. Eclectic French decor and great food at very reasonable prices. Full French wine list. Excellent beef Wellington and real Mousse chocolate. Try the Brie it's amazing

Perhaps I was expecting more having read a number of reviews all giving it 5 stars. We tried it for lunch - the quiche was excellent, my pate also very good, but the soups onion and the mushroom were only so so. The dessert outstanding. Service oh so slow. But will try it again and skip the soups.

If you want to enjoy a delicious meal in a quiet lovely atmosphere, choose Cafe Alsace. We usually cannot resist the daily Quiche specials. I enjoy their salads with the peppercorn dressing. Just writing this is making my mouth water. To top off your meal, the desserts are all fabulous. We usually choose their creme brulee but also have found... More

I've been going here for years....even before I went to France last year. Imagine my suprise when I tried several different dishes while I was in France and they were just as good as this place! The only exception is the croissants are better off street in France but everything else is on point, perfect. Plus, it's not unreasonably priced... More
