I was craving a good French breakfast, and since my favorite spot was closed, I Googled crepes and this café popped up. So off we went! It's located in a nice shopping center, and the space itself was clean and welcoming. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive. My daughter ordered an iced cappuccino and the salmon eggs Benedict. I went with a warm cappuccino and the traditional French breakfast, which comes with your choice of a croissant or a chocolatine (chocolate croissant) I opted for the chocolate croissant along with French bread, butter, and jam. My daughter loved her meal--she said the salmon was perfectly cooked and everything tasted delicious. Her drink was also a hit. My experience, however, was a bit mixed. I had asked for my chocolate croissant and French bread to be warmed, but when they arrived, they were cold--like straight-from-the-fridge cold, not just room temp. The butter that came with it was also hard and cold, so I couldn't spread it on the bread at all. That was disappointing, especially since the rest of the breakfast had potential. All in all, the service was great and the setting was nice, but I wish more care had been taken in warming up my food as requested. I'd still give it another try for the crepes, just with different expectations next time. read more

Visited for the first time recently! Very well run restaurant, Sophia was an excellent server, very personable and polite with our food changes! Many restaurants we have had problems and attitudes about this. There were 3 of us one had the Sweet Crepe La Melba with Strawberries and ice cream, I was drooling looking at it! We will definitely come back for this crepe either for breakfast or have it for dessert soon! The rest of us order the Savory La Veggie Vegetarian Crepe, it was delicious (hit our crepe craving we've been having!) contained perfectly cooked fresh veggies and nicely decorated with fresh Hollandaise! I'm low sodium and this wonderful meal was not laden with salt! Which is a fantastic perk for those of us on strict diet. The restaurant is nicely decorated and clean. We will be back! Thank you for a wonderful meal! read more

A nice restaurant with wonderful ambiance and good service. We stopped here for brunch during our road trip. We had 3eggs veggie omelette and crepe with Nutella. Both of them were just about average. Sitting area is spacious and nicely maintained. Lots of parking space in the plaza's parking lot. read more

In a rare turn of events, my husband and I ordered the same breakfast, and that was a mis-step. The restaurant is in a strip mall with a ton of parking. It's easy to get to. We were told we could sit wherever we liked and our orders were taken very quickly and our food came out pretty quickly too. The waitstaff was very kind and did a great job. The place settings were really cute. I didn't love that the decor were displays of random french things...but my husband liked that. My husband got a machiatto that he thought was weird. He doesn't quite know what he thought was wrong though. I very much liked the La Chicken Crepe, I liked the mix of potatoes and chicken and the bechamel. My husband did not really like it. And neither of us could finish ours. We should have gotten two different crepes. Oh well. Overall it was a a decent experience. A solid 4 for me - My husband says "a 3 on food a 5 on everything else (decor, service, etc)." read more

A wonderful meal. 1st time here and will be back. The only thing better than the service was the food. I had the escargot and coq au vin. My wife had the onion soup and salmon. All were terrific. The flavors just popped. read more

Was so excited to go to a French café as they are few and far between. What a disappointment. There was a very friendly server, but unfortunately, she was not assigned to us. Our immediately scolded my guest for not paying attention to what she had told her about the menu. The ham and Swiss sandwich had exactly one slice of ham. We tried the French onion soup, which was greasy and underwhelming. The sandwiches were OK. Cappuccino pretty milky. Chocolate mousse was the best of the day. I came from Pennsylvania and will know next time not to come to Chez Cani.. Just a recommendation from a foodie... Try grumpy's for breakfast... AMAZING!!! And no one is grumpy there read more

Is our favorite spot for Sunday breakfast. Food is very good. Chef Nicolas is amazing and service is always on point . Is worth trying this place for dinner as well . It has different menus and variety of options. Won't disappoint. read more

The chez cani chef is fantastic. Everything is wonderful. Service is excellent and the atmosphere is pleasant. We recommend the French items highly. Croque madame, salad nicoise. It's like a quick trip to France for lunch. read more

Delicious French spot! Tasty cappuccino and French breakfast. Server tried to offer me cheap HFCS packaged jelly, apparently you have to ask for marmalade, which was much better. The croissant was so flaky and flavorful! Restaurant was clean and modern, plenty of tasty items to choose but I kept it very simple. Salmon benne was also good. Would come back in a heartbeat. Worth the drive from Palm Bay Area. read more

Great food. Great service. After our second visit we will continue to come here. The Breakfast Sausage is very flavorful. The Chicken Crepe was extremely good. They don't skimp you on the Breakfast Potatoes. The crust on the Quiche is very flaky and tasty. The first time the Bacon was extremely thin. Better the second time around. Excellent Desert Pastries read more

So I have visited here several times. By far, this is my mother's current favorite restaurant. I have had the American breakfast, salads, dinner entrees and desserts with coffee. All were exceptional, delicious, and expertly plated. We really needed a quality French restaurant in the area and now we have one. Give them a try, you will not be sorry. read more

Chez Cani, 6375 N. Wickham Road, Suite 108, Melbourne, Florida 32940- 1-Star Chef Nico, who came with his Wife, Carine (Carine + Nicolas = Cani), and children to America from Bordeaux, France, is an inventive creative chef, or so it says on the Chez Cani website. If Nico wants to continue to portray this image, however, then his restaurant should NOT have an open kitchen. I ordered La Melba Crepe and watched as it was improperly prepared by Nico, which resulted in a rubbery mess. But what I found most offensive about the whole "French" arrogance exuded by Nico is that he took a plastic bottle of Hershey's Strawberry Flavored Syrup and drizzled it all over my crepe--I mean from the actual Hershey's bottle--No attempt was even made to conceal the label. The Chez Cani website states, "All ingredients are selected for their quality and origin. Here we do not negotiate with taste and quality. Because YOU deserve the best." Oh, really? When did Hershey, Pennsylvania become a part of France? My jaw dropped. I tapped my lunch companion on the hand and asked him to look at what Chef Nico was doing. Being a cynical Millennial, he laughed out loud, shook his head, and with a straight face said, "I think they are cutting corners." Julia, the daughter, was our serveuse. No complaints about her service, but as we drove home, instead of the typical bavardage about politics and world events, we mulled over the Hershey's syrup situation for the full 20-minute ride. I wanted to get a quote for this review, so I called Chez Cani an hour later. Nico answered the phone in perfect English. When I asked about his use of Hershey's syrup, he snarled something in French that I couldn't make out and slammed down the phone. The Big Boy says, "Not only is Nico an impudent philistine, but it's also my opinion that he is a fraud. Stay away from Chez Cani." read more

Luv this quaint place, highly recommend to give it a try. Good brunch, good service, adorable ambiance. Lovely for a ladies lunch

Love the food here! Been here about three times, and every time it never disappoints me!! I love their cute ambiance! I typically get the savory crepes, but tried out their croque Madame this last time. It was delicious and they cooked the runny egg perfectly!! The latte was also very good and strong favored! Definitely recommend people to come try it out at least once! read more

Food was horrible. Service was minimal. We ordered sweet crepes and an egg Benedict. The crepes are not freshly made. They taste premade and rubbery. Egg Benedict was not up to my expectation. If you want good food, this is not the place to get it. read more

Didn't like their pricing! Ordered an omelet . Had to pay extra to get a few bits of chopped tomato. ($2.00). It came with a salad, which I didn't want. Waitress said I could substitute French fries.She neglected to tell me I would be charged $2.95 . Plus I paid for a salad I didn't get.and didn't want. Also had to pay cash or pay $1.11 more to charge It. Poor way to conduct business. The only other place that does that is a gas station. Not right! Will not return and will tell everyone I know. And they should offer a senior menu also. read more

I am so sad... This wonderful place is a little far for me to just wake up and get my breakfast and cappuccino. Chef you need to open up near the avenues. Great atmosphere and food was awesome. I cant wait to try the lunch. And the cheese tray. read more

I went back for breakfast and tried the Meat Lover Crepe ($14) with another Cappuccino. The Crepe was made from buckwheat flour and all together it reminded me of the meat lover style of pizza. It was very tasty and FLAVORFUL without being too salty. Together with the Cappuccino it was a very satisfying meal. I will return to try some of their sweet Crepe creations soon. read more

@chez_cani is a French restaurant and bistro with an American touch, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner located in the fresh market plaza on Wickham road. They offer tea time with pastries, dry meats, cheeses and an assortment of teas and coffee. Their French market offers a variety of French imports and specialties including fresh #caviar if your looking for something to elevate your next holiday party. Their ingredients are fresh and you can taste the difference in every bite. I am a big fan of the everything goat cheese so when I spotted a goat cheese #quiche on the menu I had to try it! The quiche paired with a side salad was equal parts savory and refreshing. I would recommend not leaving without trying a side of #frenchfries as they are pretty epic! They have recently started hosting small private chef dinners so make sure you check out their website for more information. . #supportlocal #frenchfood #brevardcounty #spacecoastmoms #yum #yummy #foodie #eats #eatlocal read more

ChezCani - Creme brûlée is delicious! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Melbourne, Florida

As a restauranteur and chef I am impressed with the food (especially croissants) found at ChezCani in the heart of Viera. Although coming from such a background, I was very dissatisfied with the service. Our waitress Vivica was someone we were stuck with for both visits and both times she maintained a certain passive aggressiveness and lack of knowledge for the food she's responsible to sell. I hope the Chef re-trains her on the menu but for her service I'm afraid there might not be a rescue. The chefs food 9/10 Her particular service would be a solid 1-2/10 Best of luck for anyone stuck with her as a waitress. My best advise for her would be to leave her problems at the door and treat everyone as equals regardless of their orientation. read more

Stopped in for the first time hoping to grab a quick carryout lunch. Ordered the Le Turkey sandwich and fries. The flavor was fine but it had the minimum amount of turkey to be able to still call it a turkey sandwich. Two very, very thin slices. Not worth the cost of the meal. If I were to ever go back, and that's a big if, I would go to try the pastries and desserts, they looked pretty good. read more

Really disappointed in the food. I ordered the Duck Breast With Foie Gras Sauce and Vegetables and my wife had the Beef Burgundy with Fresh Pasta. The first bite of the duck was the hardest thing I ever had to chew. Like a piece of rubber. I thought it would get better as I got to the core of the duck breast but it only got worse. My assessment, as it seemed like it was cooked correctly based on the looks of the inside, is that it was previously frozen, then the staff microwaved it to thaw it out before putting on the grill. Nothing would be that tough if it were fresh. I've had plenty of duck before and this is by far the worst I've ever had, especially for the price. I didn't even have it in me to feed the rest of it to our dog. I was hoping I was the only one that lost tonight with this dinner but unfortunately my wife's plate struck out too. Extremely bland, no sauce, just noodles and meat. Really upsetting as this was our anniversary dinner and went off all the good reviews this restaurant has. We'll have to try again at another establishment. Their reply is ".......The duck breast is fresh and we do not use the microwave on any step . You should have call the restaurant directly and let the chef know that way he could have fixed any issues." No way the duck was not frozen. Wife and I both agreed and shame on you for making the onerous on us to call you after paying so much money, while your closed, after such a bad experience. Such awful taste in numerous respects. read more

just had lunch today and ordered the hot croissant sandwich which was supposed to come with ham, swiss cheese, and bechamel sauce. it came with ham, no swiss cheese and an overload of bechamel sauce.

ChezCani - Chocolate crepe - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Melbourne, Florida

Great place. We walked in and were acknowledged immediately. We sat down and we're given menus and offered drinks. Cappuccino was soooo good. My boss had a cup of French onion soup. It was really good but could have used more cheese. Another customer ordered a bowl and it seemed to be filled with cheese. It was really tasty regardless. I ordered a crepe and quiche. The quiche, which was good, came with a simple but tasty salad. The crepe was delicious. The crepe brûlée was really good as well. All in all a great meal, really good friendly service, and we found a great new place to eat!! We will be regular customers from now on. read more
