    Sausage and goat cheese omelette with side salad and toast.

    Stopped in for a mid morning breakfast and ordered a sausage and goat omelette. Within a few minutes, I received my omelette with a side salad and toast. The salad included ripe tomato sliced and onions. I didn't ordered a drink, but the restaurant provided a self serve water dispenser (at room temperature). Several bar seats are available opposite the front counter, and several tables are available in back. Hope to return to try some of their other offerings.

    Given how many cafes and restaurants are owned by corporations and hedge funds, it's especially joyous to spend time at Da Capo, an authentic Italian Cafe with wonderful salads, paninis and delicious coffees, lattes and an excellent selection of teas that's owned an operated by a family dedicated to making their customers feel valued. I met Aris and Alex who are brothers as well as their parents who take pride in their cafe and restaurant. I also was thrilled to find out that they have musicians performing in their dining area in the back of their shop.

    Da Capo was a flashback visit! It wasn't until I sat down and looked them up in Yelp that I realized I've been here EIGHT years ago! Today I felt like I was visiting a brand new cafe. Arona was the hostess that welcomed me, answered all my questions and provided the perfect customer service. My one uncomfortable feeling is the closeness of customers trying to get counter service and trying to get in and out of the cafe. We were bumping into each other! It's very long and narrow space. After I purchased my Apricot Croissant I was directed to the rear for seating. To my pleasant surprise I was able to conveniently get a table in back where I spread out to be comfortable. I found out later they have free WiFi. I didn't intend to stay long enough to be doing a lot of internet work. The croissant was absolutely delicious and just what I needed today. I would definitely get it again. I didn't have coffee but I did notice they don't have Sweet n Low. Good thing I carry my own in case I return for coffee. I'm upping my stars because it was a wonderful experience. I heard a lot of customers speaking Italian. I'm thinking that's a good sign! I know I'll be back to try the cookies and cakes that I spotted in the display case when I came in the door. YUM

    EVERYTHING about this place is authentic. Charming owner and staff. Shop is setting foot in Italy and the paninis are incredible. Served Hot, crispy, melted fontina cheese, tomatoes, arugula- chefs kiss!!! If that wasn't enough....on my way out I heard the proprietor tell someone- "Don't worry if you don't have the money, you can pay me another time." HIGHLY RECOMMEND

    Delicious plain croissants

    Everything about this place is just wonderful. Feels like you're in Italy. The sandwiches and croissants are SO good and the coffee is also amazing. Everyone who works here is very friendly as well. Cute little neighborhood gem!

    Shakerato

    Came here on a whim after walking through central park and was delighted to discover an authentic italian coffee shop. We got a Mocha and Shakerato MOCHA - sweet, rich chocolate, smoothly blended with the milk and coffee. Do I suspect use of european chocolate in this delightfully rich mocha? probably. One of the better mochas i've had the pleasure of drinking fors ure. SHAKERATO The precursor to the hyped up shaken espresso drink we know at starbucks, the shakerato is essentially espresso shaked with ice to give it this foamy texture at the top. Simple, and doesn't include milk or added sugar. Not easy to find in modern cafes and honestly great to try just to know what the shaken espresso is based off - they make a good one but in general shakeratos are not as good as other coffee drinks you might be able to get.

    Cute little shop. Tight narrow entryway to the back but love their decor. All I tried was the cappuccino so I can't say much. I did enjoy it and would like to try some of their other items.

    latte

    Food 5/10 Ordered an almond latte and it tasted very mid. Not sure how much the atmosphere can save the flavor, but giving it a three star because I care about my coffee a lot. It's a shame because there were so many people out in the front chatting and just having a great time, super lively in the front, many people were sipping on espresso. The back area is more for sitting down. Maybe I just ordered the wrong thing. Atmosphere 8/10 Lovely place to read a book or get some work done, super cozy and the lighting, the color of the walls, the entire back area is great. A lot of tables too! Good for catching up with friends. The only thing is that they don't have wifi, so if you need to go on the internet, you'll need to use your own hotspot. Service 10/10 Super friendly barista, loved the energy and vibes.

    Have always been satisfied with salad, variety of paninis. All coffees are first rate. Staff very accommodating. Seating in rear of shop, stools in front with shelf to place food. Upper Madison Avenue a good getaway from the norm. Apricot croissant and Americano, delicious.

Located in East Harlem, the subway took me to 103rd Street. A steep hill fortified my appetite. Cafe D'Anvers is easy to spot with it's inviting red exterior. Laura was at the table. Jackie greeted us cheerfully. We came here for Moules Frites which we ordered and a glass of Sancerre to wash it down. Two large kettles were put down in front of us with plenty of mussels and a separate bowl of fries. Mayo and ketchup to dip the fries. I prefer mayo. We ate our way enjoying the meal. Dessert was vanilla ice cream with a sour cherry sauce and their signature chocolate mousse with strawberries and puffs of whipped cream. Both desserts satisfied immense. I recognized the mousse cups as I had bought them at Eataly. Jackie told us that they make the mousse and have an account with Eataly to sell it there. Laura and I enjoyed our lunch here. I also spied Jo Malone hand wash of English Pear and Freesia in the gender neutral restroom. Cafe D'Anvers is a cozy restaurant with both seating and a bar area. I am looking forward to another meal here.

A homeless did stumble in trying to convenience the staff to give him something for free, which they were able to get rid of the person politely after many pleas. I ordered their Spaghetti Bolognese ($20), which was alright. It felt like something I could have made at home and it would come out the same quality. Never-the-less, service was great, given that I was the only person they had to take care of.

    Major side notes: The prices online are a whole lot less than what's listed on the menu there so I…read morehave added a photo from outside. For instance, the pistachio crusted salmon is $28 online which is a good deal for the area and $38 there which is a bit much among other dishes. There are also missing things from the online menu such as the grilled octopus. Anyway, I was here recently at this pretty new restaurant with a small group of 5 others. The menu online is listed as Mediterranean and Italian but I found more stuff on here to be Italian and in general, there's a lot of seafood on the menu. I am quite aware how new this spot is because I was (rather unfortunately) at a prior cafe at the same exact location called Atelier which was Middle Eastern and French influenced which was absolutely terrible but luckily this place is much better. There is ample rooms between the different tables and the lighting is nice. The music, or rather muzak, are covers of songs which don't really fit here such as Despacito (I can't believe I heard this at a Yorkville place) but at least the volume was low. The service was a tad slow and didn't pay attention well enough but I presume some of this will improve as the place has been here longer and I'm not surprised how long the meal lasted because it's Yorkville/the UES. They gave us several types of bread to munch on with a couple pieces on each side not matching and there are bottles of olive oil. The best of the breads were the grissini/breadsticks and there was a piece of olive bread which was pretty tasty also but all of them were good. I went with a special of the day as my appetizer which was the Soft Polenta with mixed vegetables and tomato sauce for $24. This was pretty pricey but the portion size was probably big enough for two to share. The polenta texture was fine and warm while the vegetables (zucchini, carrot, eggplant, tomatoes, some other stuff) was much hotter on top which was a bit odd. I wish that there was more of said vegetables because this was the best part of it with the tomato sauce being quite nice. Another person had two appetizers as their meal and enjoyed the Fritto Misto as well as the Eggplant Napoleon. My main dish was the Pistachio Crusted Salmon which is listed online as $28 with citric fennel and butter. However, as said, the actual menu version is an extra $10 more and has a lemon-capers vin blanc sauce instead along with sweet potato puree and asparagus. I have no complaints about the protein as the salmon was good quality, they gave a pretty decent portion, and it was cooked very nicely with me personally having ordered it as rare and it coming out as such being fork tender and quite buttery. My issue instead of the fish was the pistachios as while the dish was listed as crusted, the pistachio flavor was almost muted being more of a topping than a crust which was unfortunate. The asparagus below were fine and the puree which took up the majority of the plate had a good texture and the flavor was fine. Overall, the dish was good but not almost $40 good. Another person had the Spaghetti Special with cherry tomatoes, calamari, and fra diavlo sauce for $42 (also available with shrimp instead for $36 on the main menu) which they enjoyed, one person had the Fettuccine Bolognese, and another person split the same salmon dish with someone else along with I believe the whole Mediterranean Branzino which they enjoyed. For dessert, another person ordered the chocolate cake at the end for us to share which which was a good portion but unfortunately was a bit dry with another person at the table saying that was probably a bit old. I was happy that it wasn't too sweet though I did find it dry with the crust at the end being the best part as it had a good texture. From the completely different price points and menu to the service woes to the minor issues with dishes, it's hard for me to give this spot a higher rating. The chef clearly knows how to cook everything perfectly but the little faults add up. Mid 3 lowered.

To eat I got the egg sandwich with ham, cheese and it came with tomatoes and lettuce. There was one slice of what I think was American cheese and it was on a brioche. Looked like a hamburger bun and it was small. I thought the eggs would be scrambled by they were over easy or over hard or something as they were not runny and not scrambled. It comes with fries but , I opted out of fries or a side salad. The sandwich had no taste really and it was pretty oily. I was disappointed in it especially, because of the price of it. This restaurant was empty with one table being used when I came as I came around 10am so it was still early. But the decor in this restaurant is very pretty and elegant. They have a back area with more tables and chairs and a nice looking bar area. Will I come back and try something else for either lunch or dinner or to have a drink? well maybe. I mean the staff were nice though when I placed my food order and explained to them my food allergies there was a bit confusion, they thought I was allergic to only potatoes because I opted out of having french fries but that was not the case. She had to have one of the other guys come over to hear what my allergies were. They both were nice but felt a little rushed while telling them my allergies. I rate this 3.5-4stars. I wanted to rate it a bit higher because of the gorgeous interior.

The dough was again gummy, the cheese was not fully melted and the sun-dried tomatoes were very chewy. The hamburger was overcooked, dry, and the patty was all falling apart like a chop steak instead of a burger. The roasted potatoes on the side actually tasted good but tasted more fried than roasted.

I had just taken my boot offm and walking up the stairs would be contraindicated. Upstairs had just been closed. I approached the bar in the restaurant, separated by the cafe by a black curtain. I asked if I could sit at a small table. At least two others were empty. I was told I could sit at the bar, presumably with cafe things I said I'd buy. The bar was too small to write. I went outside to eat and write. It was chilly. The danish was DRY. I could easily have gone to any of thousands of NYC or Queens places, or gone home to make a cappuccino, have a snack, or cook even something simple to taste brilliant as my food does. I asked after some minutes to sit at the bar to write for a while. I observed, and told them that no one had sat at that small table. I know they need restaurant seats. I would have sat for about half an hour, an hour the most, and moved (after half an hour) if it had been the only table left and dinner customers were waiting. I had finished eating. The man, maybe the owner, said that it is not a SHELTER. He said they were different businesses. They had not told me that earlier. So build a wall between them! I will not return, or even buy a coffee again from there, or suggest it to anyone. You know how often restaurants close.
