Café des Amis was a great experience. The restaurant understands it is about more than the food – it excelled with a mix of friendly, polite and very competent waiters. I was impressed how the staff paid extra attention to each table, even though the restaurant was full.
The red tone of the décor pleases the romantics, yet the large windows bring brightness in the restaurant for people looking for a casual meal. The tables are laid out in a way that each party can talk without hearing conversations of others.
The food praises simplicity and yet offers a range of perfectly combined favours. The Charcuterie plate has great hams and crunchy cornichons. The prime beef carpaccio was tender and well marinated; although I am not quite sure the spicy mint dressing compliments the beef. For the main course, the tuna steak with tomato salsa was a delight: tender and fresh. The tomato salsa brought out even more the freshness of the tuna. The meal was finishes with a delicious cheese platter and a glass of port.
I had a great experience at Café des Amis and will go there again. I recommend this restaurant to all looking for a combination of pleasant atmosphere, excellent service and mouth watering food.
