Babette

I am thankful that Babette is in our neighborhood. It has a special something going on that can't quite be explained. It's always booked solid for brunch, with a menu that references what's expected from a brunch menu, but gives it something extra - usually an unpretentious fusion of styles. Less crowded for dinner, generally only 2-3 entree choices - but even if one isn't my mood, I'm still glad I came.When a place seems to have the same wait staff for a long time, you know the vibe is good. People must be happy there. I'm pretty sure the owners are maitre d' and "chief busboy" - they hire good people and put themselves in watchful positions.I see a lot of folks getting pizza for dinner, but for me their pizza is not quite there. But since we go with kids, it's a great solution: we order a sampling of their appetizers if the entrees aren't appealing (and the appetizers are always great) and then finish off the kids' pizza if we weren't quite full.

Met a few friends on a raining day for brunch. I had a mocha and shrimp toast. We shared the lemon ricotta pancake and both had eggs benedict. The shrimp toast was pretty good, the waitress recommended and I thought it had a good amount of shrimp and small pieces of meat it was delicious. I tried the pancake but wished it had a little more sauce with three layers and when you go in for a taste it seemed a little dry. The Benedict was good but one egg was overcooked and not runny but overall good. If I am in the area again I may try some new dishes but I definitely would order shrimp toast again.

This place was a little underwhelming. It's a nice big space with a cute vibe and the staff were friendly. But the food was just ok and it took forever for the dishes to come out. Food-wise, nothing really stood out :( but I would consider coming back to try something different.

I will be back!Ambiance: what a cute patio. There are lots of nice plants On a Saturday, some teens were playing jazz The waitstaff had umbrellas to shade us. Inside there are a few tables The food was yummy. We were there for brunch and it's a limited menu. The good: ok I LOVE the cardamom coffee. It is so good and they did not charge extra for a refill. We also had an eggs Benedict with smoked fish and a slightly curry hollandaise. It was plate-licking good. Downside was many items contained pork, and the vegetarian dish ( a southern plate) seemed boring. Bathroom grade: A2x single serve gender neutral. They were clean, smelled good, and had nice decor.

Excellent food! Especially love the pancakes :) Southern style breakfast was also a hit! And their chai is extra gingery, so good!Service was quick and extremely friendly, highly recommend if you need to put some pep in your step.I love the outdoor area. Super cute, nicely decorated, and I believe on weekends there is live music out there!

This was the most perfect date spot!! All the food was cozy and delicious. The staff were kind and friendly. Don't skip the short rib gnocchi and the passion fruit panna cotta!

We stumbled across Babette after the wait at La Marcha was too long. We did not have a dinner reservation but were welcomed inside just as happy hour was ending. Even so, they were so kind and let us take advantage of happy hour! We sat inside but the patio is amazingly cute. We had wine, the Greek goddess salad and 2 pizzas from the happy hour menu. Everything was so delicious! The mushroom pizza and the salad were so great. Ended with a seasonal dessert as well! Highly recommend.

Exceptional meal today for brunch . Service, environment and cuisine , on point.WOW!!!!!!!!!

Great food (margherita was perfect, fish portion was a little light but delicious and the sides were amazing), the patio is super nice at night, lovely staff. Will definitely be back.

Very mid. Went for dinner on a Saturday night. Seemed to be only 1 server for the whole restaurant. This server was walking very rapidly back and forth with a visibly very stressed look on her face. The owner/manager was pitching in and helping and she seemed very nice.Took a while before our order was taken. Once taken, the food took ages to come. The borsch soup was very good. Salad was perfectly fine. Got the mozz pizza and it was incredibly bland. How do you mess up basic cheese pizza? It's near impossible. I do not understand all the glowing reviews. This was a One and Done for us.
