Looking at all these reviews i was SO HYPE to come to this place and It was such a let down... let…read moreme explain my experience so you can judge for yourself::: We (my mother FROM ITALY and I) find a reserved cafe spot in the back. Cool start..... all downhill from there.... We go around the front and there are a bunch of dudes chain-smoking... Which, I get it, people smoke its a free country... but right in front of a place where people are trying to eat?? kinda yuck. ANYWAYS We decide to ignore the yuck because maybe inside is different?! Go to open the door and all the glass is broken... so the cigarette smoke is wafting INTO the cafe which is FILLED WITH MEN WATCHING A HOCKEY GAME (like its an Italian bar at least soccer come on). And ok maybe thats on me .. cafe sportivo translates to sports bar but a) it was PACKED and b) NO ONE MOVED so my mom and i couldn't reach the bar to order a drink or food even if we wanted to!!! We STILL Try to give it a chance and shove our way past all the giant men to look at the food. There was like one muffin and one croissant. At that point with nowhere to even stand and no one even checking in with us to see if we wanted we left. My mom said "che horrore" which i don't think you need a translator to understand. Soooooooooo maybe the cafe has good cappuccini and cornetti but I'll never know cause the vibes were NOT IT. In the future if you're doing a sports event gathering maybe put a sign outside?

The food is consistently fresh, delicious, and reasonably priced…read more The entire staff is always welcoming and exceptionally polite--Joseph, in particular, provided outstanding service today. We also miss one of your former employees, Melanie. She was always such a pleasure to see and made every visit feel special. The renovations look fantastic. You're creating a beautiful, quaint, and relaxing atmosphere that makes people want to stay and enjoy their meal. The music is always enjoyable, the restaurant and restrooms are consistently spotless, and it's obvious that the team takes pride in what they do. Thank you for providing such a wonderful dining experience. Keep doing exactly what you're doing--you've built something truly special.

We were just going to grab something to go and ended up staying for a while. Oh, and did I mention they have wine?

High-quality coffee made from the company's Costa Rican farm-to-cup beans. Excellent all-day brunch menu featuring avocado toasts, shakshuka, breakfast croissants, açaí bowls, salads, and artisan pastries. Friendly staff and a warm, inviting atmosphere are frequently mentioned by guests. Popular menu items Vanilla Cinnamon Latte Matcha Latte Salmon & Cream Cheese Toast Burrata & Prosciutto Avocado Toast Shakshuka Croissant Breakfast Sandwich Oreo Donut and fresh pastries Things to keep in mind Prices are a little higher than a typical coffee shop, especially once add-ons are included. During busy mornings, seating can fill up quickly. While most guests praise the coffee, a few reviewers feel some espresso drinks can be inconsistent or not strong enough for their taste. Best for Specialty coffee Brunch and healthy breakfast Remote work or studying (Wi-Fi and comfortable seating) Casual coffee dates or catching up with friends If you're in the Pompano Beach area and want more than just a cup of coffee, Carmela is one of the better choices. The inviting atmosphere and quality brunch menu make it worth a visit, even if it's a bit pricier than your average café. A+

They're always happy to customize your order, and as a very picky coffee drinker, I can honestly say they make my coffee perfectly every time. I can't recommend this place enough!

I stopped by Chez Café and had a mixed but overall interesting experience. The baked goods are…read moredefinitely the highlight -- fresh, fragrant, and clearly made with care. I tried a few pastries and loved how buttery, soft, and flavorful they were. If you're a bakery lover, this part alone makes the visit worthwhile. The desserts and pastries feel a bit upscale, and you can expect about a 15-20% price bump compared to similar cafés. The space itself is small, and it's really more of a grab‑and‑go spot than a place to sit and relax. There's no free tap water, so you're required to purchase bottled drinks, which may be a downside for some. The service was somewhat slow, though the staff was attentive once they engaged. However, the overall vibe wasn't very welcoming. A few long‑time customers seemed frustrated and even got up to complain after being ignored for a while, which was noticeable. Yummy pastries. Didn't see any stellar food. Our food was just average. We felt Café Brie on Atlantic had better food, but Chez has great pastries. Because of the limited seating, lack of water, and the uneven service experience, I'm not sure I'd choose to dine in. The drive‑thru or takeout might be the better option for enjoying their fresh baked goods without the wait.

No way this stuff wasn't pre-made a while ago. Oh yeah, part of a banana and one strawberry. Despite what the waiter said, I could tell everything was pre-made. It's about the same quality as the free "continental breakfast" most cheap hotels offer except at the hotel it's still warm and you get refills on coffee and the waffle is freshly made and hot enough to melt butter. No free refills on coffee here unless you buy their "pour over," and then you get one small refill. The strainer for the coffee was stained and filthy when it was brought out, so they're not using fresh ones or even cleaning thoroughly between uses. GF had a meatless omelet and a smoothie. Her omelet was hot so obviously it was made fresh unlike mine. I told the waiter my food was cold and he swore he saw them "take it out of the oven," but nothing I ordered would be cooked in any over other than a microwave oven. Total bill for two: $60+. This was with a 30% discount on my plate for my food being served cold. Honestly you'll have a better, fresher meal at IHOP or Waffle House or Denny's, for a fraction of the price and you'll get coffee refills.

I know most of my yelpies might not think of this location as a first time for lunch but I am here to tell you, you're missing out on some delicious Caribbean food. Everything in here is made by Chef Celly. He has been open for three years and does NOT, I repeat, does not use fillers or cuts corners. When you meet him and speak to him, you understand the love he has the food he is cooking for others. My husband tried the Philly Cheese steak and I had the pork ribs. Everything was cooked in front of us while we sat in the counter area because we wanted to speak to the cook/owner. It was delicious. The bbq sauce is also sooooo good and not too sweet. Please be aware that the chef will take your request on how you want something cooked and make alterations ! I don't know too many chefs that will actually be that accommodating. The place is relaxing and fun decorated. I highly recommend you stop by here for a lunch and support this very small business.

We ordered a latte, the Parma prosciutto, stracchino and fig spread croissant, and a ham and cheese quiche to share. The moment they pressed that croissant on the grill and served it warm, I knew we made the right choice. The buttery, flaky pastry with the salty prosciutto and sweet fig spread was one of those bites that makes you stop talking for a second just to appreciate it. The quiche was just as memorable, light, fluffy, packed with flavor, and somehow gone way too quickly. Sharing sounded like a good idea when we ordered, but halfway through I was already regretting it. Great coffee, delicious food, and the kind of place that makes you start planning your next visit before you've even paid the bill. The service is super friendly and the cafe is modern and super clean. Can't wait to come back and work my way through the rest of the bakery case.

Inside the restaurant was cute and a little funky. However, it seemed off that evening. I noticed that many of the tables hadn't been cleaned off. Chairs were not neatly tucked in. The dining room looked in disarray. Yet, there was no one else there. If I hadn't read the good reviews on here, I would've just left. We found a clean table, and we had to ask the server for menus. The salads we ordered were good, but they needed more dressing. The ingredients were fresh, and I genuinely did enjoy the food. However, the state of the dining room and inattentive service set a not-so-great vibe. Perhaps it's different earlier in the day. Perhaps it was an off night.
