Le Cafe Josephine

We came here for lunch on a Saturday afternoon. There was plenty of parking and the service was fine. We tried the breakfast baguette with beef bacon, smoked salmon, baguette, poulet (chicken sammich) baguette, and apple crumble tart. Their chicken sandwich was probably the best thing there mostly because the bread is nice and crunchy. I didn't really care for the apple tart there because I like pastries offered and the other area cafes.

Merguez sausage baguette - 8/10 - $15 - Reminded me of a kolache or hot dog. It was delicious but i would get it without olives next time. Beef bacon croissant - 8/10 - $15.50 - Tasty with a lot of stuff in it but could use more flavor.Food was pretty good and they had a lot of items on their menu. They are 100% halal. Food is overpriced but would recommend if youre in the area looking for halal brunch.

Plenty of parking here at this Moroccan themed restaurant. Plenty of French and North African inspiration in the art on the walls. Feels very Casablanca. Walk up counter ordering style. Menu is focused on baguette's sandwiches of both the savory and some sweet variety. A couple of breakfast and brunch options are there as well. Coffees are made to order and brought out to you. Thought that the food was a little lack luster. The smoked salmon Benedict didn't have enough salmon for my taste while being heavy on the hollandaise. The sandwiches looked a little bready. Coffees were good and the food came out quickly.

Located in the heart of the Heights (a little bit out of the way towards the east side), it's a quaint cafe opposite Jun and close to the happenings on Heights/Yale.Parking is available in their adjacent lot and it's pretty open. Interior is a take on a modern/rustic millennial friendly vibe. Not the biggest fan but it was alright.Service is at a minimum, it's pretty much self serve/ order and get food here. There's a few coffee options and brunch items as well. Got a matcha latte and the fig and Brie baguette here. A bit disappointed by how meh and unimaginative the sandwich was even though it had potential with the current ingredients. Could definitely think of a few easy tweaks to the recipe to really take the flavor profile to the next level. At my table, there was the salmon Benedict ordered and avocado toast ordered. Both received somewhat lukewarm reviewed; especially the balsamic vinegar on the avocado toast/eggs being a very strange combo. Not the best food and coffee in the area, and the menu is a bit underwhelming, but it's a convenient option if you live nearby.

Oh my goodness, this place is amazing! We had lunch here before the Heights Home tour. Super friendly employees and the food was so good! I got the smoked salmon with avocado on a baguette. Everything was so fresh, and the bread was crunchy and delicious!!! We will return!

Took a client to lunch and they recommended this delish restaurant! Definitely a repeat!The restaurant is situated in an unassuming older Heights building on the corner - charming inside - and adequate lot and street parking. We both had the Poulet Classique Baguette - the baguette was crisp and soft - ingredients so fresh! The parmesan fries were the perfect mix of all flavors, and the side order of falafel...it's a MUST TRY! I could literally go back just for the fries and falafel!The personnel were nice and customer service oriented. I'm telling my friends and planning a girls lunch!

This one gets my Award! Also ( clean Award) My food was very fresh, delicious and great ambiance. What more can you ask for. I am so coming back. Everything was perfection!

I wasn't expecting to have to order at the counter but it turned out to be ok. The atmosphere was such that an old friend and I could spend 3 hours catching up. The food was unusual (lamb sausage, beef bacon, and side salad with breakfast entrees), but interesting and tasty.

My husband and I got breakfast at Le Cafe Josephine a few days ago. The poulet was amazing according to him; and I can assure you that the Benedict was. Although a bit salty due to the topping, it was perfectly creamy, warm and still toasted. The fact that everything is 100% halal is also a plus. It's a pretty cool area that reminded us of São Paulo: laidback, but very modern. The price was also relatively cheap for the Heights area!10/10, would definitely go again. And again. And again.

Shouts out to Josephine's for their own lot and easy parking here in H-town! Stopped by for breakfast to go and ordered the Philly cheesesteak for the hubs, and breakfast sandwich (smoked salmon, egg, cheese, and avocado on a croissant w/ a side of potatoes) for myself. PTETTY TASTY! Service was fast and friendly. The order came out quickly, just as described, and packed up with care. All in all, fantastic and definitely worth a repeat visit. Cheers!
