“Pretty solid food/menu with great service and a unique yet fun atmosphere”

Food was great — visited for lent and ordered the garlic spaghetti. My friends ordered other options, see images. Waiter was nice and the owner was excellent. We didn’t order their Spanish Burger, but we heard it won Iowa’s Best Burger 2018! My friend also had an apple pie cider.

This restaurant is across from ISU. The venue is not too big, but the atmosphere is good. We ordered a plate of pasta and three burgers. Overall, they were delicious. The pasta tasted lighter, the burgers were less salty, and they had no sauces. The bread is toasted and tastes good. The taste was not like that of ordinary American restaurants. Today's server is Molly, and it is amicable. The only downside is that the restaurant smells like oil smoke; maybe we can eat outside next time.

Visiting from IL & met family who tells me all the time this is her favorite place. Very quiet little place. Has daily drink specials as well. I got the Greek salad w/ gyro meat. I did expect lettuce with it but it was good none the less. Great selection of draft beers as well.

So let's talk about what makes a place a local gem. An atmosphere that is obviously well thought out and committed to. Staff that are attentive to guests needs as well as sociable. Food and drink that can't be found elsewhere? Cafe Beaudelaire has all these in spades. With an atmosphere that keeps me coming back as a regular for food, drink, and company.
