Matisse Cafe Restaurant

Our first time there and this restaurant wowed us. Great food, awesome environment, quick friendly accurate service. Best part was the value. We were drinking wine with our meal and it came out to roughly $100 per person before tip. For an upscale experience, charming decor, mature dress-up crowd, high-end food quality and excellent menu worthy of becoming a regular...this restaurant will not dissapoint you. Highly recommend for date night or to impress business associates and colleagues. Only thing is you have to get reservations in advance since it's a very popular place, and there is no garage or valet so parking is a challenge. Uber or Lyft is the way to go.

We had the Mother's day brunch set menu. Food was pretty good but some dishes were a lot better than others. Among starters, the smoked trout salad had great flavor. The crab cake was solid, nothing special. Beets were food except the vinaigrette was very sweet -- sweeter than the creme brulee. As for the mains, I was a little underwhelmed by the amount of duck in the duck confit hash -- otherwise delicious. If I had to do it over, I would have gotten the filet mignon, which came with some killer roasted potatoes.

That was, my husband and I, our 1st time at Matisse. The décor was quite elegant. The menu offered a nice variety of dishes. We all like the meals that we ordered. It would have bee perfect if: -the $15 blueberry mojito had a little bit more rum. I could feel that it was super light, since after two sips of any alcoholic beverage, I already feel tipsy, feeling I did not get with it. - If we could have had more bread. Once piece was only served at the beginning of the meal. - If the music could have been less loud. Almost a perfect evening!

We stayed at the Mangroove for a week and the food at Matiss was delicious. I had the Poke by the pool almost everyday. On top of the food the service was excellent, Alexis helped us out several times during our stay and her was incredibly attentive and so polite. We look forward to seeing him on our next visit.
