Cafe 1912

Our service was phenomenal. Sarah was attentive (the perfect amount), engaging, and made excellent recommendations. Food was really delicious. My steak was cooked to absolute perfection. All of our yummies were well seasoned and prepared nicely.

This restaurant is always good! Never had a bad experience here. Cafe 1912 has a NYC feel/vibe - not bad for a restaurant in Memphis. Note that the restaurant is on the quiet side, so it's a great place for a business dinner (my most recent visit) or a romantic dinner. Great food, cocktails and wine...though I did question the wisdom of ordering a bottle when I woke up the next morning.

Went out with friends last Thursday. I have been wanting to dine here for a long time. Pretty good food. Started off and shared the Parmesan Truffle fries. They tasted pretty good but needed a little more truffle oil or seasoning. It had ample salt on the fries. I tried the pasta with seafood-shrimp and mussels. It had a delicious sauce made with butter, wine and garlic. I had a few pieces of shrimp and ten mussels. I added the seafood for an extra cost. It was worth it. I did take half of my meal home. The inside of the restaurant is nice and cozy. It is a small establishment and parking is limited to the street. They do have a lot in the back. The service was spotty. Our server was also the bartender and he did not check on us as frequently as he could. He did get our orders correct. He was friendly. I may go back and try some other dishes they serve. I was too full from dinner. They had some desserts I would like to try. I saw Creme Brûlée which is my favorite. I am always in search of that dessert. May just go have that one evening on a whim. All and all the experience was good.

Dinner is back! Reservations recommended, saw a couple of folks turned away . The calamari was excellent. The wine list is good, vintage Rhone red for $27. Catch of the day was pan seared corvina with beurre blanc sauce and risotto. Amaretto cheese cake was wonderful with ugly mug coffee.

Cafe 1912 is a offbeat, French-inspired restaurant situated in midtown Memphis. Generous portions, charming servers and an eclectic vibe. The dining area is broken into different sections, which keeps the noise level in check even when the restaurant is at capacityThe highlights of my meal were the perfectly prepared frites and the spectacular braised short ribs in wine sauce. The cheese board was also impressive.It's definitely worth checking out.

One of my favorite places in Memphis! The food is always great; innovative preparation and top notch service. Sarah is the best server ever! We had burgers this last time and they were outstanding. It can get loud, but I think that's most places!

I had the shrimp pasta with Alfredo and it was delicious. Not the best I've ever had, but there wasn't a single piece of pasta left on my plate. The sauce was light but not too runny. The mushrooms and spinach were not over cooked. The shrimp were fat and juicy. I will be back!

This is a great eclectic neighborhood date night restaurant. They have a rotating menu but we always enjoy the pommes frites and kirs royale!

Food was just ok this time. Service was very poor. The restaurant was not busy. Spent a lot of money on a disappointing experience.

Horrible food- dry salmon and very small salad that was overpriced. Just dined at Porch and Parlor spent a little more $ for a fabulous meal!
