Tucked away on a quiet streetcorner just a couple of blocks from the Menil Collection , Cafe Artiste serves breakfast, lunch, dinner, mid-meal snacks, and late-night bites.

The restaraunt's internet service only degraded after the new ISP took over. Artiste could not help that. Their food overall is still delicious, especially the Sunday brunch. I also love their coffees and brewing process.

Pros

+ comfortable, friendly

Cons

- new isp, too small

I've been a regular here for a while. I love going there to read and write. I really like the iced coffees and they have a good selection of teas. the food is pretty good too.

but lately working there has been a pain because the wireless connection is terrible. most of the time you can't get online. it's been like this for a few months now and the waiters don't know what to do because... more
