Cafe Alma

Wow. My husband and I went to Cafe Alma for our 10 year wedding anniversary. We really loved the atmosphere, the food/drinks and the service was great. The menu changes every 5-6 weeks but this was our seasonal menu. The warm garlic flan was amazing. The portions, though typical small due to this type of plated service, were large enough to be comfortably full by the end of the meal. My husband had a daiquiri and an old fashion, and I had a N/A Melon Shrub drink and tea. Finished the night with a delicious cappuccino. Everything was fantastic. There was a 21% surcharge but I didn’t mind paying it, knowing it helps out their staff. They didn’t have a tip line so we left the cash we had on top of it because we had a great experience.

We decided to hike across town to eat in the restaurant instead of ordering as we normally do. Cool facility with an adjacent hotel if you are staying in the TC from out of town. The food was top notch as always, but our order was mid-entered and we got (a delicious) burger instead of biscuits and gravy. We then ordered a second order of biscuits and gravy, but they ran out =*( so you know it was good.

Visited daughter in Minneapolis and she always takes me to some really great places. This was one. I opted for the tomato soup and a bib salad with buttermilk dressing and a local craft beer. Daughter had the saffron rice with chickpeas. Also enjoyed the sourdough bread with jam and butter. The beer arrived exceptionally cold and very, very tasty. I apologize for not remembering the brewery but trust me, it was a mild IPA with a hint of dry as you swallow. Very well done. The tomato soup was absolutely perfect! It had chunks of tomatoes with an herb taste that was served piping hot (a MUST) and topped with homemade croutons. Jeeminy, my taste buds were screaming for more as I shoveled it in as fast as I could. The sourdough bread was perfection! I love this kind of bread when it's not tangy and this was not! Daughters rice bowl was far from bland and the chickpeas were cooked so they weren't mushy nor crunchy. our server was a bit busy and didn't engage at all. Perhaps she was too engaged in her job. This place is not be missed! Definitely go here and EAT!

Cafe Alma was delightful! It is a brasserie type restaurant and coffee shop - offering made-to-order breakfast sandwiches, scratch-made soups, salads, along with specialty coffee drinks, pastries, confections and more. The servers/baristas were all so friendly and helpful!

Super cute cafe with delicious food and drinks! Got the maple rosemary cortado and gluten free torta sorta with the gf almond cake. Everything was delish and served very quickly. Friendly servers and great atmosphere for brunch!

Cafe Alma is a lovely coffee shop with a warm, welcoming vibe. I love the convenience of being able to order right from your table, which makes the experience even more relaxed. The cortados here are phenomenal, and the miel latte is easily the best in the Twin Cities. They always have a great variety of pastries, all fresh and delicious, and the service is consistently friendly. Parking can be a little tricky, but it’s absolutely worth it for the quality of the drinks and the atmosphere. A true gem in Minneapolis.
