But this day I got a special treat and met the owner. In the five minute conversation I learned so much and have fallen even more in love with the place. I try something different every time but my weakness is the pastelitos. EVERY single time. Service always makes me feel at home. This day I was not disappointed between Lexie and the owner. Lexie was attentive, helpful and friendly with a busy lunch crowd. Since we were last here they have expanded. Both sides had a crowd so it was obviously needed. Can't wait until the next time. If you haven't already, you gotta try this place!

Their owners are great and staff is well trained and always very perky (must be the expresso!). Here's my three things: 1) Come for the Lechon Asado, stay for the newly opened bar area with all kinds of tasty drinks 2) Hit them up for Lunch as nothing beats their Cuban or Media Noche sandwiches and their rice and beans sides are fantastic. 3) This should have been #1 since it starts the day but come in for a Colada (expresso and sugar) matched with a guava pastelito (pastry) and thank me later. The dark deep coffee matched with the sweet crunchy pastelito make one hell of a combo.

They also have a solid selection of pastries and desserts if you're in the mood for something sweet, but I decided to try the turkey avocado melt. It was honestly so good--the pesto really made the sandwich stand out. The vibe here is another highlight. It's a great mix of people working, studying, or just hanging out, which makes it a perfect spot if you're looking to get some work done outside of home.

Plus, the service was fast and everyone was so nice. My only regret is not taking a dessert to go! I'll definitely be back.

They need to reduce and clean...especially the bathroom full of hanging clothes. There were items on the menu that were not available, but overall the tea part was fine (they just took a while to bring out sugar, milk etc. that you'd expect to come with it). The most disappointing part was that I'd assumed since it was a cafe that there would be fresh pastries or other items homemade on the tea platters. The scones seemed fresh, but a lot of the other appetizer items looked like the frozen hors d'oeuvres from Costco or something, which was super sad. Overall, I would have expected more for the price and the non-optional $20 gratuity.

I had The American: 2 eggs, 2 pieces of bacon, 2 hotcakes (mancakes? lol) and hash browns. Everything was cooked perfectly, especially the pancakes which smelled heavenly and were the best I've had in years. Hubby has The Meats omelette with toast and grits. It was stuffed full of meat & cheese and the grits were cooked well. For a Tuesday mid-morning, it was busy! Everyone was hustling and the food came out fast and fresh. We really enjoyed our visit and highly recommend this place to anyone passing through.

Their Facebook was promoting a ''meet the kitties" event on a Saturday, and we booked tickets easily using their website. During our visit, Jessica introduced us to the process and the kitties. She was so sweet and gave insight on their various personalities. We learned that they work with Angels to the Animals as well. The cat room is intimate but spacious enough for a few different groups. They have tons of toys, enrichment items, even a kitty tv. We ordered coffee which she delivered right to us. They have lots of flavor options. I got a white mocha, yum! We ended up putting in an adoption application for a kitten, and got the call within a week that he was ready to bring home! Leslie, the owner, was wonderful to work with. He's an absolute doll and we couldn't be happier! Definitely recommend this cafe for a fun weekend activity... though you may end up with a cat even after one visit!

I am still surprise this exist in a small town. Love that they refurbish the use of old buildings. Sitting area is huge for a cafe, I think they host small gatherings sometimes which make sense. Downtown Catawba is very small but does provide a comfortable feeling. We'll see what happens in 10 year.

When I went to redeem my Goodiebag offer the guy working the counter was amazing. I got there very close to closing and he was so sweet. He went into the counter and filled our bag was savory treats. There was around 7/8 items in the bag. Everything he put in the bag was a surprise to us. We noticed a few of the names but they looked alike in the bag. Now we had 2 with hamburger meat/ground beef. They were our favorites. One had ham and cheese and one had corn and cheese. Both were delicious. Small round cheese breads were very chewy. Our least favorite was the hot dog but it wasn't terrible. We opted to get a sweet treat also and loved it also. It was a milk and coconut twisted bread. All in all I was super impressed with what we got and all the delicious flavors. We split the goodie bag items between 3 people and were very satisfied. Romeo and Juliet Brazilian Cafe 1605 Galleria Blvd Ste 105 Charlotte, NC 28270 (Review 16 in 2024 and 816 overall)

I do wish that all counter staff could communicate in English as I ended up a few times with things I would not have ordered and it was due to miscommunication and again the price is expensive and worth it when on point.
